Just a few minutes ago, Electronic Arts officially announced the list of Icons<\/strong> that can be redeemed by pre-ordering the Ultimate<\/strong> and Ultimate Plus<\/strong> editions of the football simulation game EA FC 27<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, by pre-ordering the editions in question by August 31<\/strong><\/a>, one of the bonuses will be an Icon pack containing one of the 15 special cards of the announced players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting from September 18<\/strong>, the pack will only contain the International Icon<\/strong> version, which represents an early moment in the player’s career when they demonstrated the potential to become a world-class footballer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subsequently, in November<\/strong>, the card will receive an upgrade to the Champion Icon<\/strong> version, which will celebrate an iconic moment when the player won major trophies during their career, cementing their status as an Icon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the 15 selected players who will receive an Icon card<\/strong> are former Liverpool Spanish striker Fernando Torres<\/strong>, former Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane<\/strong>, former Argentine striker Sergio Aguero<\/strong>, and many other champions who have written important chapters in the history of world football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will be some changes compared to previous editions. Some players who have always been considered Heroes<\/strong> will receive an Icon<\/strong> card in EA FC 27<\/strong>, including former Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure<\/strong> and former Brazilian defender Lucio<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth remembering that, to date, the Canadian software company has released the Deep Dive<\/strong> presentations covering Gameplay<\/strong>, Career Mode<\/strong>, the popular Ultimate Team mode<\/strong>, and the new The Grounds open world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent weeks, the official list of licensed leagues and all licensed cups<\/strong> that will be available at the launch of EA Sports FC 27<\/strong> was also officially announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During July, Electronic Arts<\/strong> also shared important details regarding the pre-order bonuses for all editions of the new football simulation<\/strong>, including the introduction of the Ultimate Plus edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Hall Of FUT<\/strong> cards<\/a> were also announced for the popular Ultimate Team mode. This is a team made up of iconic players who have won a special place in the hearts of fans of the football series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also worth mentioning is the guide containing all the useful information on how to access the new Web App and Companion App<\/strong>, as well as the guide dedicated to the transfer market<\/strong> to start trading immediately during early access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
