EA Sports FC fans go wild for 13 new Heroes – here’s who’s on the roster
FOOTBALL fans love a bit of EA Sports FC, the football sim series from EA previously known as FIFA, and the most exciting thing for most fans is Ultimate Team.
There’s something special about opening up a pack of Ultimate Team cards in EA Sports FC and seeing what rare player cards you’ve gotten your hands on.
Ultimate Team will, of course, be returning in EA Sports FC 25, and the upcoming game will see the return of FC Heroes, a special type of Ultimate Team card that features fancy superhero outfits and special bonuses.
Hero cards also upgrade after a while, so they remain relevant in the meta for a long time to come, making them valuable for any team.
13 new Heroes will be added in this year’s game, including well-known players like Eden Hazard, Fara Williams, and Tim Howard.
EA Sports has revealed the full list of new Heroes coming to EA Sports FC 25, which you can see here:
