Find out whether EA Sports FC will feature real-life teams and players below.
Will EA Sports FC have real teams & players?
In short, yes. EA Sports will have real-life teams and players.
EA recently confirmed that official leagues, teams, players and stadiums will all be available in EA Sports FC.
Of course, there is an ongoing battle for certain league and club licenses between EA and Konami, with the latter claiming the rights to several Serie A clubs over the past couple of years.
However, EA will still bring a unique licensing portfolio featuring over 19,000 players, 700 teams, 100 stadiums and 30 leagues to the new franchise.
EASFC - July 2023
There is very little information available surrounding the new EA Sports FC title, with more info not arriving until July 2023.
EA's release did contain the words "Join the Club" which could allude to some sort of subscription model, but that remains to be seen.
EA also released the following in its official statement:
"EA SPORTS FC will allow us to realize this future and much more…but not before we deliver our most expansive game ever with our current naming rights partner, FIFA, for one more year."
