When does FPL launch again? When can we enter our brand new teams?

Some of you I'm sure couldn't care less, some of you can't wait to start tinkering again. If that's you, then this one is for you.

I've got a table here from Scout measuring the launch dates of the past 8 FPL seasons, and how many days before GW1's deadline the game actually launched.

Source: fantasyfootballscout.co.uk

  • The earliest it launched was 51 days before GW1,
  • The latest was 25 days before.
  • An average of 35 days

The 2025/26 season starts on August 16th means the game should launch around July 12th! The Club World Cup ends on July 13th which would make sense as date to correspond with approximately too. Mark your calendars!
