EA Sports FC 25 adds 13 new heroes to Ultimate Team’s roster of niche and cult legends, including Real Madrid hipster favorite Guti, TV star Jamie Carragher and England’s all-time leading appearance maker Farrah Williams.

There are some interesting additions to the lineup this time around, and some longstanding debates about whether certain players will become icons or appear as heroes are resolved. Some players are also ideally suited to trying out new player characters in the improved FC IQ tactics system.
Eden Hazard may be grabbing the headlines and being one of the players most likely to become an icon in the modern era – as he has been the best player in the Premier League for many years. But in injury-plagued (and meme-filled) years at Real Madrid, his stock seemed to have fallen far enough that he missed his chance.
Maicon is also an outstanding player who deserves to be remembered. But these days he’s most famous almost for his disastrous night against Gareth Bale (who himself will soon become an icon), which is unfortunate.
Fara Williams, the record holder for appearances in the Football League, was also unlucky to miss out on an Idol card. But at least I now have access to my dream midfielders of Marek Hamsik, Tomas Rosicky and Hidetoshi Nakata.
It will also be interesting to see what the special goalie cards are capable of in EA Sports FC 25, given its expanded PlayStyles and PlayStyles+ feature set.
