FIFA 23 has partnered with Marvel for Ultimate Team. EA Sports confirmed in a blog post that the two companies have collaborated to bring iconic footballers back to the pitch in FIFA 23. It will bring some iconic stars from around the world, reimagined as legends from the Marvel comic books. Recognising their memorable careers for club and country, each FIFA World Cup FUT Hero will receive a unique illustrated card at the start of the mode. The new game mode is expected to feature in the upcoming FIFA 23 — out September 30, across PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and Windows PC.
For now, EA Sports has confirmed five players to receive the special Marvel player card treatment. At launch, FIFA 23 Ultimate Team World Cup mode will include retired legends such as USA's Landon Donovan The Brave, represented as Captain America. Then there's the Portuguese defender, Ricardo Carvalho The Anticipator, which is a clear nod to Loki, The God of Mischief.
