After revealing the cover art for the upcoming EA Sports FC 24 earlier this week (which did not make a particularly good impression on PC Gamer's resident football fan Rich Stanton, who said it featured "the most jankass footballer faces you've ever seen"), Electronic Arts has now shared the first trailer for the game, and revealed that it will be out on September 29—or a whole week earlier, if you spring for the ultimate edition.
As Electronic Arts' very first post-FIFA football game, EA Sports FC 24 is a very big deal: The FIFA series has been the company's most reliable cash cow for years. That's why EA really needs to get it right, and from that perspective you can see why it opted for the "group photo" approach to the cover art: The diversity of players, teams, and leagues is clearly intended to emphasize that the name may have changed, but the gang's all here.
