Mbappe and Kerr confirmed as FIFA 23 cover players

Believe it or not, one of the most eagerly awaited announcements to be made when a new FIFA game is about to release is not related to gameplay novelties or innovations. Every year, a different player or players appear on the cover of the Ultimate Edition, and it's something that can even impact the sales, as every player has their favorite ones. Of course, such an announcement is followed by a huge debate that tries to determine if the chosen stars deserve to be there, pretty much like if it was the Ballon d'Or award. Electronic Arts has revealed the cover players for FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition, and they are Sam Kerr and Kylian Mbappe.

We leave discussing if the choice is appropriate or not to you, but their level as football players is beyond any doubt. By picking a male and a female player, EA also leaves clear its intention to keep empowering women's football as a very important part of the franchise. The significance of the players on the cover is rather accentuated in this case, as FIFA 23 will be the last game in the series as we know it. The disagreement between FIFA and Electronic Arts has forced the video game company to change the name of the franchise, which will be known as EA Sports FC from next year.

If you are a series fan, you don't have to worry about losing all your favorite players and teams. EA is already negotiating with the respective third parties to include them all in EA Sports FC. In any case, they will be present in FIFA 23, which aims to deliver the most realistic football simulation experience this year too. With a couple of novelties here and there, and the most important players, teams, and competitions from all over the world, the game is a must-have for football fans.
