The highly anticipated EA Sports FC 24, the newly rebranded football simulation game franchise, has finally been revealed and is set to be released on September 29. This confirms recent leaks that suggested an early access release on September 22 for those who pre-order the Ultimate Edition. The cover star for the game, to everyone’s surprise, is none other than Manchester City F.C. footballer Erling Haaland, who made an appearance at EA’s global event in Amsterdam, Netherlands. During the event, Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson passionately expressed his love for football, managing to deliver a lengthy monologue without once slipping up and accidentally mentioning the word ‘FIFA’.
While FC24 may seem like the same FIFA game we’ve known for years, it actually brings new branding and a host of exciting features that are completely unique to the franchise. One notable addition is the expansion of women’s football in the game, with women now being included in the Ultimate Team mode for the first time. The trailer indicates that the gameplay will not separate genders, allowing players to have both male and female players on the same team and field. In FIFA 23, the studio introduced the National Women’s Soccer League, and this trend continues in FC24 with the inclusion of two additional women’s leagues – Liga F and Frauen-Bundesliga, representing the top women’s leagues in Spain and Germany respectively.
EA Sports has secured agreements with various football leagues to ensure that FC24 stays true to the real sport. This includes the inclusion of over 19,000 players, hundreds of stadiums, and more than 30 official leagues such as the Premier League, La Liga, and the UEFA Champions League. After a financial disagreement with the footballing body, EA Sports decided to drop the FIFA brand, which reportedly demanded a $1 billion payment every four years. CEO Andrew Wilson explained that the only value they ever got from the FIFA deal was the “four letters on the box”.
The game’s foundation is built on an enhanced version of the Frostbite Engine, which provides smoother animations and redesigned player models. HyperMotionV technology adds a touch of realism by capturing volumetric data from over 180 professional men’s and women’s football matches, resulting in lifelike player movements. PlayStyles is another innovative feature that goes beyond overall player ratings, giving each player unique abilities to make their on-pitch performance more authentic. Additionally, the company has introduced Ultimate Team Evolutions, allowing players to upgrade individuals throughout the season based on specific objectives, granting additional stat boosts and skills.
