Electronic Arts just revealed the official incoming class of EA SPORTS FC 26 ICONs. Fan-requested ICONs are featured in it. Legendary men’s and women’s players are also included, who used their world-class talent to inspire the world. FC Mobile now holds all new men’s ICONS. However, the fans will gain one of fifteen ICONS (untradeable) from the Early Access Launch if they already pre-order EA SPORTS FC 26 Ultimate Edition.

Up to 13 historic players will help different Archetypes to allow the fans to fit their playstyle. Archetypes will come with unique characteristics and a new customization experience.

USWNT legend, Alex Morgan, said, “I’m excited to be able to further my legacy in FC 26 as an ICON. To be recognized among the game’s ICONS is an honor, and I hope to continue inspiring the next generation of players who dream of leaving their mark on the field.”

FC 26 Ultimate Edition cover athlete, Zlatan Ibrahimović, says, “No matter what they say, Zlatan is back. For the fans who always believed in me, you can now play as Zlatan, as an ICON, the way it was meant to be.”

A new FUT ICONs trailer for EA Sports FC 26 has also been released by EA.
