FC 26 COVER
This page shows you the FC 26 cover of every single edition and platform.
FC 26 Covers
The cover of each FC title is the artwork featured on the front of the game package, a hallmark of the franchise since its inception. Over the years, FIFA covers have reflected the evolving football landscape, symbolizing the game’s lasting appeal among fans. Typically, the cover showcases at least one prominent football star.
While digital editions are now the top sellers, one of the most exciting aspects of every EA FC release remains the anticipation around the cover star. From legends like David Platt to rising stars like Jude Bellingham, and even record-breaker Wayne Rooney, many iconic players have had the privilege of being featured on FIFA covers. With the shift to the FC branding, all eyes are now on who will grace the second-ever FC cover.
The covers vary based on edition, platform, and sometimes even region. For FC 26, there will only be two covers: one for the Ultimate Edition and another for the Standard Edition.
Cover Star
The covers often feature a striking image of the chosen player, set against a dynamic background that reflects the excitement and drama of football. Last year, Kylian Mbappé was replaced by Erling Braut Haaland as the FC 24 cover star. It was the first time he featured on a FIFA/FC cover. In Football Club 25, the Norwegian was replaced by Jude Bellingham.
Born on June 29, 2003, Jude is one of the brightest young talents in football. He began his career at Birmingham City, joining their youth academy at the age of eight and quickly progressed through the ranks, making his first-team debut at just 16 years old in August 2019.
His impressive performances in the Championship attracted attention from top European clubs, leading to his transfer to Borussia Dortmund in July 2020. At Dortmund, Bellingham’s combination of technical skill, physical prowess, and football intelligence has made him a standout player in the Bundesliga and Champions League.
Internationally, Bellingham made his debut for the England national team in November 2020, becoming one of the youngest players to represent the senior team. He played a significant role in England’s journey to the Euro 2020 and Euro 2024 final.
Known for his versatility, Bellingham can play in various midfield roles, contributing both defensively and offensively. His maturity on and off the pitch, combined with his natural talent, suggests a bright future ahead, with many predicting he will become one of the best midfielders of his generation.
