Paris Saint-Germain unveils a small teaser for its players for the upcoming EA Sports video game… without Mbappe

The famous name “FIFA” is gone. EA lost the licensing rights and can no longer rebrand the next video game as such. Now it’s time for the long-awaited EA Sports FC 24. This new opus will be released on September 29th on consoles.

Just two months after the game’s release, the first images of the video game were released. But a small anomaly appears: Kylian Mbappé is nowhere to be seen in the first videos of the game, abbreviated as EAFC 24.

In the official teaser of the video game that was published on Thursday evening, and for about two minutes, we see many world football stars: Erling Haaland, the spearhead of this opus, as well as Vinicius, Diogo Jota, Kyle Walker, Youssef Moukoko … Among those present are also Legends Luis Figo and Mia Hamm and soccer player Sam Kerr. This remake of the video game focuses on women’s football. But not Kylian Mbappe or Neymar.

Mbappe is not available

The same goes for the Paris Saint-Germain teaser. The Capital Club posted a ten-second video clip on its Twitter account to introduce the players. The French and Brazilian forwards are again absent. Which did not fail to respond on social networks.

On the other hand, we find Marquinhos, Gianluigi Donnarrumma, Achraf Hakimi, Nuno Mendes or even newbies Kang-In Lee, Marco Asensio and Lucas Hernandez. Admittedly, not all of the players on the squad are visible, but choosing not to show two of Paris’ biggest stars is a challenge. No Marco Verratti either.

Note that it is possible to “boycott” Kylian Mbappe from the game. After three years in a row on the cover, this year the French striker was replaced by … Erling Haaland, who was rated as his best enemy.
