EA Sports FC 25 is scheduled for release on September 27th, but those who purchased the Ultimate Edition have the privilege of a head start.

What To Do When FC 25 Won’t Launch
Some players have reported difficulties launching EA Sports FC 25, with the game freezing on the main menu, displaying an anti-cheat error, or failing to start altogether. If you've already exhausted common fixes like verifying game files and updating your graphics card drivers, here's another potential solution you can try.
If you're using any third-party graphics card software, such as NVIDIA Inspector or MSI Afterburner, for features like FPS boosting, it's recommended to uninstall them, restart your PC, and see if that resolves the issue. These overlays can sometimes interfere with the game's launch process.
Remember that FC 25 is currently in Early Access, so even seemingly harmless overlays like Steam or Discord could be incompatible. It's worth trying to disable these and see if it makes a difference.
Given the history of previous EA Sports FC games experiencing similar launch problems, we can only hope that these will be resolved swiftly in upcoming patches.
