Millions of TV owners getting irresistible sports freebie – exact brand of television you'll need to claim footie perk

MILLIONS of football fans across the UK can now score big without even owning a games console. EA Sports FC 25, the latest footie game sensation, is now available to play directly on Samsung TVs and smart monitors, thanks to a game-changing deal with Xbox Cloud Gaming. 2 The offer is rolling out via Samsung Gaming Hub, which is available on newer Samsung TVs and smart monitors. That means fans from London to Leeds can dive into the virtual pitch using nothing more than their telly, a controller, and a Game Pass subscription. Gamers will need an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership to get in on the action, but there's a huge bonus for those who haven't signed up before. Samsung is offering two months completely free. Just head to the Samsung Promotions app on your TV, tap the Xbox promotion banner, or scan the QR cod e shown on screen using your mobile. Once inside the game, fans can take control of over 19,000 real-life players, representing more than 700 clubs from across 30 leagues. Whether you fancy running a team in career mode, teaming up with mates in 5v5 Rush, or managing every aspect of your club with the new FC IQ system, the options are endless. It's the most immersive version of the game yet, and thanks to Samsung's deal with Microsoft and Electronic Arts, it's all available instantly via the cloud – no downloads, discs or consoles required. It also means you can go from watching the big match live on TV to jumping straight into one of your own, all on the same screen. Samsung's Gaming Hub is also home to other major streaming platforms including Amazon Luna and Nvidia GeForce Now, giving even more reason for gamers to stay glued to their smart screens. Hun Lee, executive vice president of Samsung's Visual Display Business, said: 'We are delighted to bring EA SPORTS FC 25 to Samsung TVs and monitors through cloud gaming on Samsung Gaming Hub. Virgin Media Launches Two Free Rakuten TV Channels As the world's leading TV manufacturer, one of our goals is to immerse soccer fans around the world in the exciting game of soccer, whether they are playing the game or watching a match live on a Samsung TV.' The promotion is expected to drive a wave of interest from casual fans and hardcore gamers alike, especially with the current buzz surrounding the EA FC franchise. Just last week, Real Madrid and England ace J ude Bellingham made headlines at the EA FC 25 launch in Madrid, where he rolled his eyes at an overly dramatic intro calling him 'the main man from Madrid'. He's also just been unveiled as the cover star for the EA FC 25 Ultimate Edition, appearing alongside football legends David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, and Gianluigi Buffon. With the Euros in full swing and football fever gripping the nation, Samsung's latest perk is perfectly timed. If you've got a compatible Samsung screen at home, this is your moment to take to the pitch without spending a penny more. All you need is the telly, a controller, and a few taps to get started. 2

What we know about EA FC 26 – expected release date, leaks and new FUT Heroes

EA FC 26 will be the next EA Sports FC game to be released, with the game projected to drop in a few months. With EA FC 25 coming towards the end of its cycle, all eyes are now turning to the future, with EA FC 26 the next game to be released by EA Sports. We're rapidly approaching year three of EA Sports ' EA Sports FC era, with EA FC 26 set to be released this fall, as confirmed by EA in its Q4 and FY25 results. A tough start to life for EA FC 25 saw EA admit at the beginning of the year that EA FC 25 had 'underperformed' financially in its preliminary Q3 FY2025 results, but after an impressive gameplay update, the game seems to be back on track, giving players of the game some optimisim ahead of EA FC 26's release later this year. Based on past releases, we should start to get our first official look at EA FC 26 in July, but once again, leakers have beaten EA to the punch, with lots of EA FC 26 information starting to circulate on social media. ‌ From new game additions to when EA FC 26 will be released worldwide, leaks are appearing more and more each day, so here's everything we know about EA FC 26 so far, and all the leaks we've found on social media in one place. ‌ EA FC 26 leaks round-up Here are all the EA FC 26 leaks we know so far. There seem to be endless amounts of leaks out there at the moment, so we've whittled it down and included leaks from sources that have proven reliable in the past. EA FC 26 leaked release date and expected price Starting strong, one of the most reliable leakers in the game, @FutSheriff, has revealed the EA FC 26 release date, with the leaker claiming that the EA FC 26 Ultimate Edition will be released on September 19, 2025, while the EA FC 26 Standard Edition will be released on September 26, 2025. Debunking any theories of an August release, the leaker has a proven track record when it comes to leaks, and the majority of EA's past EA Sports FC and FIFA have been released in the last week of September, so this looks to be nailed on. Price-wise, there have been no leaks as of yet, but as reported by Esports Insider, EA CFO Stuart Canfield confirmed during an earnings call that EA isn't planning a change in its current strategy, meaning EA FC 26 should be priced the same as EA FC 25. So, we can expect that these will be the EA FC 26 prices when the same is released in September: EA FC 26 Ultimate Edition (PlayStation, Xbox, and PC) - £99.99 / $99.99 / AU$149.95 EA FC 26 Standard Edition (PlayStation, Xbox, PC) - £69.99 / $69.99 / AU$109.95 For Nintendo Switch players, the EA FC 25 Ultimate Edition was released at £69.99 / $69.99 / AU$119.95 while the EA FC 25 Standard Edition cost £54.99 / $54.99 / AU$89.95. But, with Nintendo Switch 2 now available, we expect EA FC 26 will likely be priced the same as the PlayStation, Xbox, and PC versions of the game. ‌ EA FC 26 leaked FUT Heroes More of a potential slip-up by EA rather than a leak, but some of the new FUT Heroes coming in EA FC 26 may have already been revealed, and it's been there for all to see since March. As we reported a few months ago, Nexon, one of the developers of EA Sports FC Mobile, a PC and Mobile version of EA Sports FC, which is only available in South Korea, China, Thailand and Vietnam, posted a bunch of unseen FUT Heroes in a blog post. 19 new FUT Heroes were being added to the game, but eight of them are not in EA FC 25, so they could be coming to EA FC 26. The eight FUT Heroes are as follows: Cesc Fabregas (Spain) Michael Carrick (England) Marouane Fellaini (Belgium) Mario Mandzukic (Croatia) Andrea Barzagli (Italy) Jan Koller (Czech Republic) Estaban Cambiasso (Argentina) Gilberto Silva (Brazil) ‌ EA tends to add a handful of new Heroes to the game each year, but this doesn't mean that all of these players are guaranteed to feature in EA FC 26. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. EA FC 26 leaked Ultimate Team changes @DetectiveFUT is the source of the majority of FC 26 Ultimate Team leaks, with the leaker having a proven track record with Ultimate Team leaks during EA FC 25. According to the leaker, we could be set for a big shake-up to some of the biggest game modes in EA FC 26 Ultimate Team, including a change to FUT Champions. According to @DetectiveFUT, Champions Play-Offs will be scrapped, meaning you will no longer have to qualify for FUT Champions Finals before playing. But, there will now be two different FUT Champions events each week instead – FUT Champions and FUT Champions Challengers. ‌ Players who are in Division 5 or higher in Division Rivals will qualify for FUT Champions, while players in Division 6 or lower will qualify for FUT Champions Challengers. The leaker has also revealed a change is coming to Division Rivals in EA FC 26. Checkpoints are being turned into 'Stage Events', with each Stage Event featuring an objective that can give out extra rewards. For example, the objective may be to score first in your next game, and if you do so, you could earn some extra rewards. If you go on a win streak, you will earn double Rivals points, while there is also relegation protection for tough runs. The leaker hasn't elaborated on the latter, so we'll have to wait and see what the criteria is for that. The leaker also reported that EA is testing a penalty system for players who quit too many games to try and stop players from regularly leaving games. This may be the best addition of them all if true. ‌ Lastly, @DetectiveFUT has claimed that a big focus for EA in EA FC 26 could be Live Events and Tournaments in Ultimate Team. According to the leaker, there will be up to two tournaments per week, both competitive and friendly. Qualification for tournaments may be needed, and winning the tournaments could give you bonus rewards on top of early access to SBCs. The leaker also claims that these tournaments will be in the form of Live Events and that it's not a new game mode. EA FC 26 leaked gameplay updates Once again, coming from @DetectiveFUT, the leaker has revealed some new additions coming to EA FC 26 gameplay, including new Player Roles, updated PlayStyles, and a new Tactical Focus. Here are all the new additions in full: New Player Roles CB: Wide Back CDM: Box Crasher LB/RB: Inverted Wingback ‌ We guess that Wide Back will be most useful for left and right centre-backs in three-at-the-back and five-at-the-back formations, Box Crasher will instruct your CDM to make late runs into the box to meet crosses, and Inverted Wingback will have your fullbacks play high and central, almost as two extra attacking midfielders. PlayStyle Updates Enforcer (NEW) Aerial - Aerial Fortress Flair - Trailblazer Trivela - Inventive We don't really have any idea what these new PlayStyles could mean. We predict Enforcer could be a PlayStyle best suited to defensive midfielders, while the updated names for Aerial, Flair and Trivela may simply just be name changes. New Tactical Focus A new Tactical Focus called 'Versatility' is reportedly coming to EA FC 26. We predict this could be a set-up that allows your players to adapt to opponents' tactics, but this could limit player familiarity with certain roles and positions. EA FC 26 cover star The EA FC 26 cover star will be announced when EA starts to reveal information about the new game in July, and as always, there's lots of speculation over who it could be. Jude Bellingham? Mohamed Salah? Lamine Yamal? Well, we already know for a fact it can't be the latter. Yamal was revealed as an ambassador for eFootball, previously known as Pro Evolution Soccer (PES), earlier this year, meaning the Spaniard cannot be on the cover of EA FC 26. Bellingham will likely feature on the cover once again in EA FC 26 after making his debut on the front of the game in EA FC 25.

Games Inbox: Is the next gen Xbox a console or a PC?

The Thursday letters page is very impressed by Donkey Kong Bananza, as one reader asks how long Sony's live service game obsession will last. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@ Quacks like a duck I'm sure I'm not the only one that is very confused about Microsoft's most recent Xbox annoucement. Unless I'm missing something, it could be read multiple different ways. Even the stuff about different stores I initially took to mean Xbox games in different stores, not different stores on Xbox. That doesn't seem to be what others think, but I'm not convinced until we hear something official. The other thing that gets me is that Microsoft made a point to call it a console and yet how is a console going to run Windows games? At that point what's the difference between it and a PC? That question has been asked many times about consoles, ever since the days of the Dreamcast, but I do feel this is the limit. It certainly sounds more like a PC than anything else before it. In a sense it doesn't matter what it is, but if it has the function of a PC then that implies a high price. This is where I just don't understand Microsoft's plan at the moment. Their Asus portable is going to be super expensive, this PC/console is going to be expensive, a next gen Microsoft portable is definitely going to be expensive… who is it that's going to be spending all that money on Xbox hardware all of a sudden? If I were them, I'd just accept that you're third party and go with it. You don't see EA being too embarrassed to admit what they are or worrying whether they should make a console or not. Grakkus Alternative performance Good interview with the Borderlands 4 guys, and I happen to agree that Borderlands 3 was a real turn off for me, as far as the whole series goes. I'm not really sure what exactly was so wrong, because it was pretty much the same thing all over again. Even the 'jokes' weren't really that different. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. I think it was just that game seemed so pleased with itself the whole time and, as you say, the fact that it would never shut up. Hearing the dev talking about the style of the voice-acting, it makes me wonder what any of the games would be like with the same script but normal voices and acting. Borderlands 3: Calmer Edition. Krampus GC: Thanks. Last gen gaming Wow! That Direct for Donkey Kong Bananza did not disappoint, the game looks amazing. Although one thing bugs me…how come Donkey Kong Bananza is supporting GameShare with Nintendo Switch 1 consoles… but Mario Kart World doesn't? I'd guess it's because the same image would have be on both screens, but you could still have split-screen multiplayer with GameShare across multiple Switch consoles I feel like they're missing a trick here. Joe GC: We're confused about that ourselves, given they didn't explain it at all. We'll hopefully get an answer shortly. Email your comments to: gamecentral@ Shop break-in The announcement from Microsoft, that the next Xbox will be Windows with third party store fronts, as well as backwards compatibility with traditional Xbox games makes it sound very appealing. I can't see Sony wanting to stop making games for PC and this effectively means Sony games on Xbox. As good as it sounds, even if they get the full screen Xbox experience working on Windows, solve all the compatibility stuff, and give the hardware folks set device specs with whatever the AMD deal is, I can't see it working. Sony's just going to undercut them on the price of the console and there won't be anything they can do about it. There are some suggestions though that this is also a set-up to bring more ammo with their case with Epic Games against Apple/Google to end exclusive app stores on devices and you just know once that's done they're both going to go after Sony/Nintendo to get their own stores on their devices too. Tim Never change Hideo Kojima is such a diva I don't know whether to respect him or laugh in his face. Getting upset that people liked your game too much is so pretentious it's literally unbelievable, but for him it's just Tuesday. I don't know how much demand there is for Death Stranding 2 but I actually didn't mind the original. Considering it's a slow motion postal delivery game it's strangely atmospheric and interesting. What puts me off the sequel though is the thought of the endless, terrible cut scenes. There's no point hoping he's going to stop with them now, so I guess we just have to put up with it. I would say that getting rid of them would get him a bigger audience but I'm not sure he even wants that, based on what he's said. Which is kind of… fair dues. Hacker Permanent policy So, with the delay of Marathon we have yet another live service disaster and the only thing that's likely to come out of it, other than a game no one plays, is Bungie getting shut down or broken apart. This has all gone on for so long I can only ask: will it never end? It'll be three years this autumn, since Sony first started going on about their 12 live service games, and despite failure after failure they've still not changed plans and we have no more single-player games coming out now than before. So is this going to go on for another year? Another two? Forever? Has someone at Sony put a hard limit on when they should give up or is this literally it until they get a new boss? Although even that didn't change policies when it happened – not that I'm really clear who's in charge nowadays. I'm just shocked at what is still happening and the fact that there is no sign of it ever ending. Not while the PlayStation 5 is running laps around Xbox anyway. Whatever it is that would take them to reconsider it clearly hasn't happened yet but the longer it goes on the less the chances are that things will ever go back to anything like it was before. GeniusFool Potential customer RE: Johnson and his claim no one will buy a rebranded Asus ROG Ally. I'm interested. I've been looking at getting a handheld for a while, to help clear my gaming backlog. I want something that runs Epic Games Store and WeMod, so the Steam Deck has never appealed to me and the Ally didn't seem like the user face was great. If Microsoft can vastly improve this, then it might be the machine I've been waiting for. That said, I'll wait for the reviews before deciding. Capt Krysis Wave of approval Regarding GC viewer Simundo and their praise for Wave Race 64! I 100% agree with this letter and I did remember putting a lot of effort into completing the game's various modes with all the racers, including the big guy, who had as many pros as cons regarding his racing technique. The wave mechanics were awesome and I felt the impacts made were the most realistic water and wave simulations I'd experienced then and probably now. The turning on a dime and reacting to the choppy waters during the levels with bad weather was fun and challenging in such an addictive way. I always remember the serenity of Drake Lake, with the sound of flapping wings against a natural country water spot, as you traverse the easier course. Plus, you know you'll be needing all the skills back on the ocean courses. To me the memories are strong, as the time I spent getting the most out of the game, and being champion on hard mode, was an incredible experience. The atmospheric, sun-soaked music helped and I still know the entire Wave Race main title track as you press on to power the game up. It's so perfect in what it has done with physics that I haven't known a game since to match them and it could be one of the all-time greatest racing games ever on any system. It would be incredible if there is a recommendation of a missed Wave Race type style of game on PlayStation 5 or Switch, as I do feel the need to get my jet ski out again and angle myself into the oncoming surf. Alucard GC: The water and vehicle handling in Mario Kart World is extremely similar to Wave Race 64, no doubt purposefully so. Inbox also-ransHas Donkey Kong Bananza been put back? Your report suggests it's out in September not July. Ed GC: Sorry, that was our mistake. It's still July 17. I'm curious to see Stellar Blade on Nintendo Switch 2, because I haven't played it, but I really wish this didn't seem like hammering the nail into Bayonetta's coffin.
