As one of the biggest, most popular video games in the world, it comes as no surprise that the new campaign for FC 26 is larger than life.
Created by Uncommon London and directed by Gary Freedman through MJZ, the two-and-a-half-minute epic is filled with famous names, fantastical scenes and funny moments.
Built around the game's simple truth — that fans don’t just play the game, they shape it — the film dramatises the passion, creativity and absurdity of football fandom by incorporating fan suggestions of how to improve the game with, initially, brilliantly unforeseen consequences.
The spot features iconic names from across football, sport and culture including Jude Bellingham, Toni Kroos, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Alyssa Thompson, Cole Palmer, Virgil van Dijk, Oliver Kahn and Lewis Hamilton, and is a whirlwind of visual ingenuity and delight such as players being attacked by polar bears, Jude Bellingham being struck by lightning, a monstrous Oliver Kahn smashing through a wall, and Zlatan scoring from outside the stadium.
“More than just a trailer, this film is a tribute to football culture — spanning the artistry of global icons, the dreams of the next generation and the roar of the stadium," said Nils Leonard, Co-founder at Uncommon. "We’re so proud of our long-standing partnership with EA SPORTS FC, and launching this new game — shaped by player feedback and the community — feels like an exciting next chapter that’s never been seen before."
