FIFA 22 PS Plus. Yep, those four magic words confirm that for a limited time, FIFA 22 is free for subscribers to Sony’s monthly gaming service. It’s available for download from May 3, and there are two other titles to nab for nada too: Curse of the Dead Gods, and Tribes of Midgard. Wondering where to start after successfully taking up the FIFA 22 PS Plus offer? Here at GR, we’ve got you covered.

Firstly you’re going to need our FIFA 22 tips rundown, outlining seven key things to know before you play. There’s a bit of Ultimate Team in there, but handy hints for general play and career mode too. Ah, yes: EA’s standard management offering is hugely improved this year, with options such as creating your own club to play in any league of your choice. Hop into our FIFA 22 career mode or FIFA 22 best young players guides for much more info.

Tactics and player knowledge are going to come in handy too, right? Fret not, they’re covered in depth too. To get your inner Pep Guardiola juices flowing, take a long studious look at our FIFA 22 formations guide. Once that’s committed to memory, you need our lists of FIFA 22 best players and FIFA 22 best teams. Bayern and Paris SG are fairly competent at the whole ball-kicking thing, it turns out. At least feign surprise. 

Right, that’s the basics covered. Now for the slightly more fun stuff. Planning on unleashing your nightly Jack Grealish fantasies? Keep them clean, and point your browser to GR’s FIFA 22 skill moves guide. When they lead to goals, hit the pause button and bust out some FIFA 22 celebrations. Want a real leader in the dugout, rather than a generic looking avatar? Then you need our list of authentic FIFA 22 managers.

Let’s face it, you’re going to give Ultimate Team a spin eventually. When you do, avoid spending real money: you can make in-game moolah using our FIFA 22 coins guide instead. The FIFA 22 meta is worth keeping tabs on, too. In-game campaigns come thick and fast, with FIFA 22 TOTS (Team Of The Season) sure to be the focus of the summer. FIFA 22 Icons and FIFA 22 Heroes are also worth knowing about too. With prices falling as players look towards FIFA 23, there’s plenty of scope for building a dream team made up of past greats. 

Prefer to focus on the wonderkids who’ll be on show at this year’s World Cup? Then divert your attentions to our FIFA 22 Future Stars list. Just make sure you look good while out on the digital turf. All you need for that is our style-focussed round-up of the best FIFA 22 kits.

Been playing all season and still trying to chase the best cards? Then you need our super-topical FIFA 22 RTTF guide.

I'm GamesRadar's sports editor, and obsessed with NFL, WWE, MLB, AEW, and occasionally things that don't have a three-letter acronym – such as Chvrches, Bill Bryson, and Streets Of Rage 4. (All the Streets Of Rage games, actually.) Even after three decades I still have a soft spot for Euro Boss on the Amstrad CPC 464+.
