The buildup for EA Sports FC 26 has begun as the video game developer unveiled Zlatan Ibrahimović as the Ultimate Edition cover star.
FC, formerly known as FIFA, is EA Sports’ flagship soccer/football video game franchise. After their partnership with FIFA, the game’s global governing body, came to an end, subsequent entries from FC 24 onward have been known by the same moniker. Excitement is ignited every summer by a cover reveal. Fans now know that Ibrahimović is returning to the game in some capacity, likely as an Icon in Ultimate Team.
Ibrahimović is the Ultimate Edition star meaning a standard edition is yet to be revealed. It’s been rumored that Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham and Bayern Munich playmaker Jamal Musiala will be joint cover stars for that entry marking the first time the latter has appeared on an FC cover. The former was on the FC 25 cover last year.
