EA SPORTS FC 24

EA Sports has unveiled its official announcement trailer for the upcoming EA Sports FC 24. This is the first soccer game the developer is releasing following its split with FIFA. In May 2020, both franchises failed to reach an agreement on licensing, ending a 30-year partnership. In reiterating its commitment to continue the series, EA Sports is launching a new game with a fresh feel and logo. Thankfully, the players’ and teams’ licenses remain.

The studio is now in full gear preparing for the game’s worldwide release in September. It started with a first glimpse of the upcoming game in April. On Monday, EA Sports unveiled the “Ultimate Edition’s” cover showcasing 31 different players, including David Beckham, Ronaldinho, Didier Drogba, Pele, and more.

The new trailer starts with a deep narration from actor Daniel Kaluuya who hints at a possible different gameplay.

“30 years of packing the stands and putting you on the pitch, but it’s time to get closer. Here we go. This is a whole different game.” 

In a press release, the studio said,

“In the EA SPORTS FC 24 official announcement video, powered entirely by the EA SPORTS Frostbite game engine, fans can see the FC 24 Ultimate Edition cover come to life and get their first look at the new game. Voiced by Daniel Kaluuya, Academy Award-winning actor, producer, and writer, the video showcases EA SPORTS’ commitment to bringing the global EA SPORTS FC community closer than ever to the World’s Greatest Game and invites fans to join the future of football. A future built for fans, by fans.”

EA Sports will unveil more information about the game in a Livestream on July 13. In the meantime, you can watch the official announcement trailer below.
