As you may remember, previous installment in the series, EA Sports UFC 4, was released on August 14, 2020. In other words, it's been a few years since the latest installment. Most EA Sports games have a consistent release window, but this has never been the case with EA Sports UFC, which is not annualized and has no release patterns. EA Sports UFC 4 released in August, but EA Sports UFC 3 released in February, for example.
The big question is whether the game will be a cross-gen release. A PC release seems out of the question considering previous games have not come to PC, but a cross-gen release seems quite possible depending on the tech the game is making use of.
