FIFA Heroes misses May window, now launching June 22

ENVER Studio and Solace Games committed to a May 2026 global launch for FIFA Heroes on April 23. The May window is now dead by the developers' own hand. ENVER Studio has confirmed a new global launch date of June 22, 2026, marking the game's second missed window since its original April 28 release date.

Two missed windows and counting

FIFA Heroes was originally set for April 28 on iOS and Android. Days before that date arrived, ENVER and Solace moved it to May with no explanation. The April 23 announcement framed the new window as timed to arrive ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026, which kicks off June 11 in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. No specific date in May was given.

The game remains in soft launch on Android in Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines. That status has not changed. Console versions for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox were already on a separate, unannounced timeline before the May commitment was even made.

June 22 lands in the middle of the group stage

ENVER and Solace built their entire launch strategy around the World Cup. A pre-tournament release was supposed to give FIFA Heroes the best possible conditions: a global football audience primed before the first match was played. That window is gone. June 22 drops the game into day 12 of the tournament, deep in the World Cup group stage, which runs through June 27.

Launching during the group stage means competing directly with live football for the attention of the audience, and the game was designed to capture. ENVER and Solace have confirmed June 22 as the new date, but have not explained why May was missed for the second time.
