It features the likes of Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk, Tottenham Hotspur’s Heung-Min Son, Manchester City’s Erling Haaland, and even some of the game’s ICONs such as Pele and Ronaldinho.

Despite the change in name, EA SPORTS FC will feature all the content that has been beloved in FIFA games for the last few years. Meaning fan-favorite game modes like Ultimate Team will return, hence the inclusion of an Ultimate Edition of the game.

There’s still plenty more to learn ahead of the game’s rumored September release, and the title will serve as a direct competitor to FIFA’s own football game.
