EA Sports have revealed their first batch of player ratings for FC 25, with the top-rated players in the latest game unveiled.
Ballon d’Or holder Aitana Bonmati is the highest-rated woman on the game with an overall of 91, a rating that makes the Spain international the joint-best footballer on the game alongside Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Rodri.
Barcelona unsurprisingly dominate the list after quadruple success for the Catalans in 2023/24. The Spanish side have eight players inside the top 25, including Alexia Putellas (90) and Caroline Graham Hansen (90).
Chelsea forward Sam Kerr is the highest-rated Women’s Super League player (90) and joint-second highest overall.
There are five WSL players inside the top 25, with Kerr’s Chelsea teammate Guro Reiten (88), Arsenal’s Beth Mead (88) and Manchester City duo Lauren Hemp (87) and Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw (87) all included.
EA FC 25 is the second release of the video game franchise since EA Sports split from FIFA after a partnership that lasted more than two decades.
EA Sports FC 25 will be released on Friday, September 20 for gamers who pre-order the Ultimate Edition. The official release date is Friday, September 27. The Web App will be released on September 18, and the companion app (iOS, Android) will be released on September 19.
