Football commentator Guy Mowbray allowed EA to create an AI voice clone of himself to read the game’s more than 20,000 player names, part of EA’s broader use of AI in development. EA says it’s a collaborative tool with talent, not a replacement, as industry groups scrutinize AI in voice acting.
EA Sports FC is using an AI replica of commentator Guy Mowbray’s voice to handle some commentary lines with Mowbray’s permission. EA says AI supports development and that commentary remains a collaboration, not a replacement, with lines tailored to on-field context and multiple tones.

EA Sports FC 24, the popular soccer game, is on sale for Black Friday, with a 57% discount, bringing the price down to $29.99. The game features HyperMotion V and DualSense controller feedback on PS5, providing a realistic gaming experience. New "Playstyles" allow for customization of each player's gameplay. While the Black Friday deals are already live, this is the best offer for EA Sports FC 24, and waiting for a better deal is unlikely.
EA Sports FC, the latest football game from EA Sports, has amassed a player count of 11.3 million globally since its launch week. The mobile version, EA Sports FC Mobile, reached 11.2 million users within ten days of release, with 2.2 million players downloading it on launch day. The game's success is attributed to both returning and new players, with a nearly 20% increase in new players compared to the previous year. EA Sports aims to build the largest football community through EA Sports FC.
EA has reportedly delisted its entire FIFA series, from FIFA 14 to FIFA 23, from all digital storefronts, including the Switch eShop. However, FIFA 22 and FIFA 23 can still be accessed through the EA Play application. This comes ahead of the launch of EA's rebranded football game, EA Sports FC 24, which will have some differences on the Switch compared to next-gen systems. FIFA has also mentioned plans to work with other developers to launch new football games in the future.
EA Sports FC 24, the first release since the split between EA and FIFA, fails to deliver the significant changes expected. The game's biggest changes are seen in the Ultimate Team mode, where both male and female players are now featured. While this inclusion may benefit the women's game, the overall gameplay remains similar to FIFA 23. The new Play Styles feature provides improved abilities based on real-life player strengths, but some abilities are currently overpowered. Other modes like Career mode and Pro Clubs receive minor cosmetic changes, overshadowed by the dominance of Ultimate Team. Overall, EA Sports FC 24 falls short of being a standout entry in the franchise.
EA SPORTS FC is set to release Team of the Week 2, featuring potential upgrades for players such as Harry Kane, Joao Cancelo, Heung-min Son, N'Golo Kante, and Kieran Trippier. The predictions are heavily focused on attacking talent, with notable performances in recent matches. The release is scheduled for Wednesday, September 27 at 6 PM.
EA Sports has released a teaser trailer for their upcoming video game, EA Sports FC 24, featuring famous football stars such as Erling Haaland, Vinicius Jr, and Sam Kerr. The game's Ultimate Edition cover will showcase a lineup of current and former superstars, including Virgil van Dijk, Son Heung-min, Zinedine Zidane, Pele, and David Beckham. The trailer includes team talks from Pep Guardiola and Zidane, as well as a glimpse of Vinicius Jr in action. EA Sports FC is the rebranded game after the company's partnership with FIFA ended, and a full gameplay trailer is set to be released on July 13.
EA Sports FC 24's Ultimate Edition cover featuring legends and current stars has sparked internet memes due to some player faces looking odd or hilariously inaccurate, with Bukayo Saka, Andrea Pirlo, and Ronaldinho being singled out. The absence of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo on the cover suggests a passing of the torch. The game is set to launch on September 29, 2023, with an early access period for Ultimate Edition buyers starting on September 22. EA Sports FC is expected to continue the FIFA formula, including Ultimate Team and official licenses, while FIFA plans to release its own game.
The Ultimate Edition boxart for EA Sports FC, EA's breakaway from FIFA, features questionable facial renders of famous footballers, including Andre Pirlo, Bukayo Saka, Virgil van Dijk, and Vinicius Junior. It is unclear if these renders will accurately represent the players in-game. The game is set to launch on September 29, 2023, for PS5 and PS4.
EA Sports is dropping FIFA and launching its own football series named EA Sports FC, with the first instalment likely to launch in September 2024. According to David Jackson, VP of Brand at EA Sports, the break will allow the publisher to finally deliver on player expectations, after alluding to the series being held back by FIFA in the past. The vision for EA Sports FC sounds like it'll potentially pave the way into uncharted territory that EA is more than ready to take on, and is eager to do so, with authenticity and innovation being key factors.
EA Sports FC's FIFA 23 has become the most successful game in franchise history, contributing to EA's record Q4 net bookings of $1.95 billion, up 11% YoY.

The Sims 4 and Apex Legends also helped EA's portfolio, with the former reaching 70 million total players worldwide. EA projects upcoming Q1 revenue to land between $1.83 billion and $1.93 billion, with revenue for the upcoming fiscal year to reach between $7.3 billion and $7.7 billion.
