Alex Scott will be first female Hero in FUT.
EA has revealed the first set of Heroes joining its EA Sports FC 24 game.
Heroes are legendary former players that will appear as playable rare items in the game’s Ultimate Team mode, each with a specific league association.
EA will be revealing these Heroes all week, starting today with the following:
- Alex Scott (England WSL)
- Carlos Tévez (Premier League)
- Gianluca Vialli (Serie A)
- Wesley Sneijder (Serie A)
- Bixente Lizarazu (Bundesliga)
Alex Scott is a notable inclusion as the first female Hero to appear in an EA football game.
As Chris Tapsell wrote in his preview, EA is making big changes off the pitch with womens’ football players finally arriving in Ultimate Team.
All the players are in superhero poses designed in partnership with Marvel Entertainment.
The inclusion of Italian footballer Gianluca Vialli is also notable after he passed away earlier this year.
“Vialli was a beacon of both character and quality, a striker that struck joy into all who had the fortune of watching him play,” said EA.
Expect more reveals from EA later this week.
Earlier this week, The Premier League announced it’s extending its partnership with EA as an official partner to ensure authenticity in the game.
