The annual tradition of guessing the next superstar to grace the cover of EA Sports’ games has always piqued the interest of fans. This year, EA has unveiled the cover for EA Sports FC 24, featuring a collage of both past and present players. While the sentiment behind it is positive, many fans have expressed their concerns about the overall appearance of the cover.
A Terrifying Collage of Faces
Several players have pointed out the unsettling facial models on the cover, with one individual correctly noting the intense “thousand-yard stare” of Pirlo in the top right corner. This observation raises questions: Does Pirlo know something that the other cover stars don’t? Critics have likened the quality of the cover art to that of a Sims DLC pack, with one fan humorously remarking, “This must be the football-themed DLC for Sims 5.” Another fan reminisced about the graphics reminiscent of the PlayStation 2 era, questioning why the cover appears to belong to that generation.
Disappointing Jersey Choices and Concerns about Gameplay
Amidst the face-related criticisms, some fans expressed disappointment seeing Ronaldinho donning a PSG jersey instead of a more fitting Barcelona or Brazil kit. Moreover, Pele is featured right behind him, wearing a Brazil-like kit. This inconsistency has left certain fans disheartened. Additionally, the quality of the cover has led some to question the quality of the actual game. One user voiced, “This looks like an early concept for the cover. If EA Sports genuinely believes this is an acceptable representation, I fear what they might have done to the gameplay itself.”
