EA Sports FC 24 Trailer, Cover Athlete, Release Date, EA Play Trial and More Details Revealed

EA revealed some EA Sports FC 24 details today, but fell well short of the “full reveal” they mentioned earlier in the week. If you missed the 35 minute livestream, check it out here.

• HyperMotionV captures the game as it’s truly played, using volumetric data from more than 180 professional men’s and women’s football matches to influence player movements in-game. This unlocks authentic full-team movement as well as 1,200 signature run styles so fans can experience the unique ways that top players move.
• PlayStyles dimensionalise athletes, going beyond overall ratings to bring to life the on-pitch abilities that make players special. PlayStyles comes from real-world player data from Opta and other sources, affecting gameplay and giving players unique capabilities that make their way of playing look and feel more authentic. PlayStyles+ enhance those signature abilities to world-class standard—think Haaland’s Power Shot—reflecting elite players’ abilities to play at a level that few others can reach.
• The enhanced Frostbite Engine delivers The World’s Game in lifelike detail, bringing a new level of immersion to each match. All-new SAPIEN character technology transforms the way players look and move with realistically redesigned player models that are 10x more anatomically precise and correct down to the millimetre, and GPU cloth stretches and ripples to showcase more athleticism, making every slide and every celebration more like real-world football.

The EA Sports FC 24 website has a bit more on some of the features in the game, including gameplay, Clubs and Leagues and Ultimate Team which includes Women’s football with men and women playing on the same pitch.

“Celebrating sport for all is what continues to drive and inspire us,” said Andrea Hopelain, SVP of Brand, EA SPORTS. “That’s why we’re proud to announce the most inclusive and diverse iteration of the game so far.
