The FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition has Chelsea’s Sam Kerr and PSG’s Kylian Mbappé on the cover, EA has revealed.
The inclusion of Kerr, who plays for Chelsea and Australia’s women’s teams and is widely considered one of the best female footballers in the world, marks the first time a female FIFA cover athlete is included on an internationally-released version of EA Sports’ long-running football game.
Kerr appearing on the FIFA 23 cover wearing a Chelsea kit suggests the inclusion of Chelsea FC Women and, following that, the Women’s Super League – the highest league of women’s football in England – in FIFA for the first time.
