EA has announced the full details of the EA Sports FC 26 soundtrack, with over 100 tracks, and a surprise inclusion of a pro-footballer on the OST.
The biggest names include the likes of Ed Sheeran, which is a “never before heard” track from the co-owner of Ipswich Town, and, you know, the same Ed Sheeran who is a global singer/songwriter star.
“For more than two decades, EA SPORTS has shaped global culture by introducing millions of players to new music, artists, and genres,” said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive and President of Music for Electronic Arts. “FC 26 is one of the most diverse and bold soundtracks yet – echoing the voice of the FC community through song and culture.”
Another huge artist to be included is Fred again, who is a returning star for the FC 26 soundtrack, along with PinkPantheress, Ebony, HAIM, The Cure, and Obongjayar.
PinkPantheress notes: “Having ‘Girl Like Me’ on the FC 26 soundtrack is honestly a bit mad. I’ve always thought it’s sweet how football and music can bring people together without even trying. I just like making songs that make you feel something, so hopefully when they queue a tune of mine in the game, they catch a vibe and carry it with them. Maybe even help them bag a goal or two, who knows!”
Ebony & AG Beatz said: “Being included in the FC 26 soundtrack is truly special for us. Football and music connect people all over the world, and knowing that our track will be heard by players everywhere – from Brazil to Portugal and beyond – is something unforgettable.”
Another big get for EA Sports for FC 26 and the soundtrack is Moise Kean. Yes, the footballer, who has a track in the game as a series first. Kean said: ““Football and music are both passions that unite people across the world, no matter their differences. To now be a part of FC 26, not just as a player but as an artist myself, is a dream come true”.
There’s a total of 27 previously unreleased tracks, but the chances are you’ll know someone on the FC 26 soundtrack. Elsewhere, EA recently released the ratings for the players in Ultimate Team.
