EA Sports FC 25 Cover Star Revealed

Highlights

  • Jude Bellingham, at 21, is the youngest-ever EA Sports soccer game cover star, appearing in both the Standard and Ultimate Editions of EA Sports FC 25.
  • EA Sports FC 25 continues the soccer legacy under EA, succeeding the FIFA series after EA’s split from FIFA.
  • Bellingham will feature as the sole athlete on the Standard Edition cover, while the Ultimate Edition’s will also include famous players like David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane.

As a huge soccer fan and follower of Jude Bellingham’s career, I couldn’t be more thrilled about the young English midfielder being named the cover star of EA Sports FC 25! Growing up, my brother and I would spend hours playing EA soccer games together, and it’s truly surreal to see one of our idols representing England on the cover.

Jude Bellingham, a 21-year-old midfielder for Real Madrid, has been announced as the main athlete on the cover of EA Sports FC 25’s standard version, and one of several stars on the cover of the ultimate edition. This makes him the youngest person ever to be featured on an EA Sports soccer game cover. Furthermore, he will also represent the cover star for EA Sports FC Mobile.

Starting in 2023, the new EA Sports FC franchise will hit the markets, marking the succession of the previous FIFA series that started in 1993 and had a consistent annual release until its last edition in 2022. This game carries on the soccer tradition under the EA banner, but it no longer bears the FIFA label since EA and FIFA ended their collaboration over licensing fee disputes.

As a passionate gamer, I was excitedly waiting for the latest news about the new EA Sports FC game. Multiple rumors had swirled around that Bellingham would be the cover star, but on July 17th, EA officially confirmed it through a press release. I could hardly contain my excitement when I read that my favorite player would grace the cover of the Standard Edition! The image captures Bellingham in April 2024, celebrating a game-winning goal in front of his adoring home crowd at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid. David Jackson, the vice president of brand for EA Sports FC, expressed his enthusiasm about Bellingham’s selection, stating that he perfectly embodies our vision as we transition from a product to a platform, merging football, culture, and entertainment. I can hardly wait to see Bellingham lead my team to victory in this year’s EA Sports FC game!

Jude Bellingham is the Cover Star of EA Sports FC 25 Standard and Ultimate Editions

Bellingham graces the cover of the Standard Edition alone, but shares the limelight with other soccer legends on the Ultimate Edition’s cover. Joining Bellingham are renowned players David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane, Gianluigi Buffon, and Aitana Bonmatí. The image for the Ultimate Edition was taken in Madrid, where they all posed together. The cover showcases these five athletes in an indoor setting amidst 17 famous trophies symbolizing their impressive career achievements.

Bellingham was thrilled about being chosen as the game’s cover athlete, sharing that he and his brother used to enjoy playing EA soccer games in their childhood. He feels honored to represent England’s home county on the cover of the game, a milestone not achieved since 2011 in an EA soccer title. However, the release date for EA Sports FC 25, which is reportedly set for September 27, has yet to be officially confirmed. Pre-orders are already being taken, and those who pre-order before August 20 will receive special perks such as untradeable player items for both FC 25 and FC 24, early access, bonus points when playing with friends, an Icon in Player Career, and some FC Points.
