EA Sports and UEFA have joined forces to bring the excitement of Euro 2024 to EA FC 24. This collaboration will allow players to experience the tournament through a free in-game update in the summer of 2024.
As a bonus, every EA FC 24 Ultimate Team player who plays the game before January 16 will receive an untradeable player item from one of the following stars: Jack Grealish (England), Ousmane Dembelé (France), Federico Chiesa (Italy), Florian Wirtz (Germany), Virgil van Dijk (Netherlands), or Alvaro Morata (Spain).
In addition to this exciting update, EA FC will serve as the official platform for UEFA’s eEuro esports program. This program will showcase the top EA FC players from Europe representing their national teams in annual tournaments.
While not explicitly mentioned, it is likely that EA FC players will have the opportunity to participate in the Euro 2024 tournament within the game, as has been done in the past.
The Euro is renowned as one of the most prestigious and fiercely competitive soccer tournaments in the world, featuring the best national teams from Europe. With this partnership, eFootball, EA FC’s main competitor, will not include the Euro 2024 competition.
“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with EA Sports and bring UEFA Euro 2024 to the EA Sports FC community,” said Guy-Laurent Epstein, UEFA’s marketing director. “This tournament is a vibrant and exhilarating football event, and we are excited that the vast EA Sports FC 24 community worldwide will have the opportunity to engage with it in an authentic gaming environment. Stay tuned for more details about the eEURO competitive gaming tournament.”
The Euro 2024 free update will be available on all EA FC 24 platforms, including Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
