It's all coming from 20 September.
EA Sports FC 25 cover stars and various special editions were today detailed by EA ahead of the game’s early access launch on 20 September.
Let’s get into all the information you’re after.
EA Sports FC 25 cover stars
This year, you can expect Real Madrid and England superstar, Jude Bellingham, on the cover of EA Sports FC.
“I played this game with my brother all the time growing up, and I’ve always thought about how incredible it would be to one day be featured on the cover,” said Bellingham, likely referring to EA Sports’ now-defunct FIFA franchise.
“There have been so many iconic players on the cover over the years, and I am delighted to be the most recent English player to be bestowed with this honour since 2011,” Bellingham continued. “I’m also truly honoured to be featured on the cover of Ultimate Edition with true legends of the game both past and present in Beckham, Bonmatí, Buffon and Zidane.”
As Bellingham detailed, the Ultimate Edition of EA Sports FC 25 will feature himself alongside David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, Gianluigi Buffon, and Ballon d’Or Féminin winner Aitana Bonmatí.
