EA Sports FC 24, the FIFA replacement developed by EA Sports, is revealed with a first trailer that should speak to all football fans.
Will EA Sports FC 24 succeed in replacing Fifa ? Even if the studio behind these two licenses remains the same, EA Sports will not benefit from the support of FIFA for its future football simulation. Anyway, the millions of football fans around the world should still rush to the title of the American studio, especially since no competitor of the same stature will come to put a spoke in the wheels ofEA Sports FC 2024 (even though UFL is still due out this year). EA plans to unveil its game at length this July and it starts with a first trailer today by the developer.
The first image of EA Sports FC 2024 is here
On the official Twitter account of the game, we discover the very first image ofEA Sports FC 24. This is the cover of the Ultimate version of the football simulation. On it appear several current and past glories of the round ball. We have Pelé, Haaland, Zidane, Cruyff, Bellingham, Ronaldinho and the Australian Sam Kerr. But not Kylian Mbappé.
A few days ago, Dealabs indicated that the game’s cover would look exactly like what EA Sports just showed us. Which means Haaland will most likely be featured on the classic version ofEA Sports FC 24. Kylian Mbappé will therefore no longer have the privilege of appearing on the jacket as was the case in the last three games of FIFA. One can even wonder if the general average of the French player will not be lower than that of the Manchester City player, to whom he is regularly compared, but that is another subject.
A cover that is debated and the target of mockery. Some have indeed pointed out the shortcomings in the modeling of faces. A user having fun comparing Ronaldinho to CJ from GTA San Andreas.
A trailer and the licenses of the biggest championships present
In the process, EA Sports unveiled the very first trailer for the game. We discover all the stars of the cover of the Ultimate version in action, both on the field and in the locker room. This official presentation still does not allow you to get a first idea of the gameplay, but EA announces that it will be unveiled on July 13th. This trailer, which is rendered with the Frosbite engine (Battlefield), is just as worrying as the still image for face modeling. Just look at Zinedine Zidane…
If you are worried about not finding the licenses of the biggest championships in the football game supposed to replace Fifa, rest assured. We already know that EA Sports FC will include the Premier League, the men’s and women’s Champions League, La Liga, the Bundesliga, Serie A and of course our beloved Ligue 1. We will have to settle for this for the moment, until EA Sports reveals more information in a few days. The publisher’s next football simulation whose release date could be set for September 29, 2023.
