It’s that time of year again.
With no meaningful football for a couple of months, some folk attempt to fill the void by getting excited about the next game in the Fifa instalment.
Already this summer, we’ve learned that both Ronaldos – the Portuguese and Brazilian one – feature prominently on the new game. Whereas Cristiano is the game’s cover star, the World Cup winner has been added to the game as one of its icons.
Now, in their latest announcement, EA Sports have revealed the names of four more Icons that will be appearing in the game’s Ultimate Team mode.
Pele will join R9 on Fifa 18, as will fellow South American great Diego Maradona. Legendary goalkeeper Lev Yashin will also make an appearance in the Ultimate Team mode, as will Arsenal favourite Thierry Henry.
EA Sport have promised to announce the names of more Icons in the coming days and weeks, with the legends feature being extended to PlayStation 4 and PC after previously only being available to Ultimate Team players on Xbox.
