FIFA 20 FUT Birthday release date CONFIRMED: Ultimate Team launch this week

FIFA 20 FUT Birthday release date has been confirmed by EA Sports today, with the major Ultimate Team event launching later this week.
It had been predicted that FIFA 20 FUT Birthday was getting a release date last Friday on the PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PCs.
But the expected FIFA 20 FUT Birthday release date of March 20 came and went without any official news on the Ultimate Team event.
However today, ahead of tomorrow’s expected release of a new round of FIFA 20 Team of the Week Moments, the FUT Birthday release date has been confirmed.
FIFA 20 FUT Birthday will have a release date of Friday March 27, the EA Sports Twitter account has confirmed.
They tweeted artwork for FUT Birthday alongside the message: “Friday #FUTBirthday #FUT20”.
A start time for FUT Birthday has not been confirmed yet but major FIFA 20 Ultimate Team launches typically take place at 6pm UK time.
It remains to be seen if EA drops any more teases of what fans can expect from FUT Birthday in the run-up to its release this Friday.
Ahead of the launch of FIFA 20 FUT Birthday we have already seen the kit for this year’s event leak.
The FUT Birthday kit is mainly white and what looks like multi-coloured confetti on it as well as fluorescent turquoise detailing around the collar.
The leaked FUT Birthday kit was revealed in a post by the FUT Watch Twitter account.
Alongside a picture of it they posted: “FUT Birthday items have started to hit the code”.
Before FUT Birthday releases this Friday EA Sports look set to release another round of FIFA 20 Team of the Week Moments which debuted last week.
This FUT launch was in lieu of FIFA 20 TOTW 27 which was put on hold due to leagues around the world being postponed amid the coronavirus pandemic.
