EA Sports has named Kylian Mbappé as the cover star of EA Sports FC 27’s Ultimate Edition. The choice highlights the Real Madrid and France forward’s prominence following a strong World Cup campaign and renews his association with EA’s football games, having previously appeared on FIFA 23’s cover.
France lost to Spain in the 2026 World Cup semi-finals, but Mbappé scored a tournament-leading 10 goals to win the Golden Boot. He is 27 and said the role was an honour; EA was due to reveal further FC 27 details on 27 July, while the Standard Edition cover star had not yet been confirmed when the article was published.
- Kylian Mbappé fronts FC 27’s Ultimate Edition.
- He won the World Cup Golden Boot with 10 goals.
- Further FC 27 details were expected shortly.
