Gamers don't have to wait until Oct. 1 to get their hands on FIFA Ultimate Team, which is easily the most popular game mode in EA Sports' FIFA franchise.

Ahead of the official global release date, FIFA 22 gamers can start building their Ultimate Team early using the FUT 22 Web App or the Companion App, with the latter being available for iOS and Android devices on Apple's App Store and Google Play.

MORE ON FIFA 22:

The FIFA 22 Web App is an online application that allows FIFA 22 gamers to make edits to their Ultimate Team club in lieu of their Xbox or PlayStation console. 

Web App or Companion App users are able to manage their squads, buy packs in the store and monitor the transfer market. It is also possible to partake in squad-building challenges.

One caveat: It is not possible to play matches through the Web App or Companion App, but much of the game mode's key administrative activities are available.

The gameplay will have to wait for Oct. 1, when FIFA 22 will be available to play worldwide across PlayStation, Xbox, PC and Nintendo Switch.

The FIFA 22 Web App can be accessed on your laptop, computer or other device by visiting the official EA Sports website through any internet browser.

It can also be downloaded for free on iOS and Android mobile devices (smartphone or tablet). Simply search for 'FIFA 22 Companion App' on the App Store or Google Play.

If you already have the FUT Companion App on your phone, there is no need to download it again since the app will update automatically.

You can use your EA account to log in to the FUT Web App or else create a profile.
