EA Sports FC 24: a great first for the game, it’s historic

EA Sports has once again announced a significant new feature in EA Sports FC 24, but it is already dividing the community, which is very vocal.

One month to go before EA Sports FC 24 replaces FIFA 23 for good. promises more realistic animations than ever before. Another novelty marks a first for the cult franchise.

Another historic milestone for EA Sports FC 24

We didn’t expect that at all. EA Sports reveals that in addition to the famous commentary duo of Benjamin da Silva and Omar da Fonseca who will thrill players in EA Sports FC 24 (as in FIFA 23), a new voice will accompany them. Laure Boulleau, the former glory of the France team and currently a consultant at Canal+, will become the first commentator to be heard in a football simulation from the publisher. In reality, Laura Boulleau will not be in the cabin, but will occupy the role of Reporter Studio. The PSG legend says he is delighted to join the commentary team and make history in his own way.

It’s an incredible opportunity to be in a game like EA Sports FC 24. I can’t wait for the fans to experience my interventions and my reactions. Becoming the very first woman to occupy this role in France is also a real honor and I am proud to continue to open doors.

On her Instagram account, Laure Boulleau shares a video in which we see her in the middle of a recording session. We thus discover that she will have interactions in the middle of the match with Benjamin da Silva and Omar da Fonseca to keep the players informed of what is happening on the other meetings in progress (probably in Career or Club Pro modes), like a a goal scored, a red card given or a penalty conceded.

Laure Boulleau already harshly criticized

Laure Boulleau will have a lot of work and will form a real trio with “Team DaDa” in EA Sports FC 24. Unfortunately for her, on social networks, the news is received rather coldly by some players, we let you guess which ones. “ It will put the comments in English and it will be fixed », « i will quit career mode reads amid a tiny handful of glowing posts and plenty of absolutely ridiculous sexist posts. Moreover, inappropriate messages had already proliferated when EA Sports announced that for the first time, female players would be available in the Ultimate Team mode and could share the same team as their male counterparts.
