Finally, official information for EA Sports FC has finally arrived in the form of the Ultimate Edition cover art.

Showcasing stars like Beckham, Haaland and Pele, this cover showcases the power of new Hypermotion V technology used in the game.

Not only do we see legends past and present from the men’s game, but we can also see strong representation from the women’s game, with their rumoured implementation into Ultimate Team set to be confirmed soon.

NEW ERA – The Ultimate Edition art for EA Sports FC has been revealed

Slap bang in the middle of the cover art is Erling Haaland, which may well confirm the rumour that he’s replacing Kylian Mbappe as the game’s cover star.

In fact, this cover art gives us plenty of hints about exciting features in the new game, with the continued presence of international teams seemingly confirmed as well.

Mbappe Removed

One of the big takeaways from this reveal is the fact that former FIFA cover star Kylian Mbappe is nowhere to be seen.

Now, of course, this doesn’t mean Mbappe has been removed from the game but it does suggest that the PSG superstar is not going to be the cover star for FC24.

NEW TECH – Hypermotion V has been leaked

Notable English hunk David Beckham seems to have faired well when it comes to the use of Hypermotion V technology, whilst Arsenal star Bukayo Saka could use another round in the face-scanning machine.

Overall, this cover has been used to showcase the power of the new Hypermotion V technology, which we should learn more about in the coming weeks.

International Remains

Following the split between EA Sports and FIFA, many thought that international teams would be departing EA Sports FC 24.

However, this cover would strongly suggest otherwise with international sides front and centre on the cover.

MAJOR IMPLEMENTATION – Women’s players are coming to Ultimate Team

In fact, this cover has also confirmed the arrival of Liga F (the Spanish premier women’s league) into the game.

Overall, this showcase of representation is a great step forward to appealing to a much wider audience and introducing us all to a new wave of footballing legends.

New game, new name

EA Sports FC? FC 24? EA FC? EA Sports FC 24? There have been plenty of potential names banded around for this game, but we finally have our answer.

The game will be titled FC24, with EA Sports FC 24 likely to be utilised as a longer name.
