EA FC 24 devs explain \u201cbold\u201d decision to mix men & women in Ultimate Team EA SPORTSEA FC 24 marks the first time that women\u2019s players have appeared in Ultimate Team mode, and two of the devs behind the game have explained why the team decided to mix both sides of the sport rather than creating separate modes. Alongside the new name, EA FC 24 brings plenty of new features for fans to get stuck into. The new Precision Passing opens the door for more precise through balls, while Tactical Visions add an extra layer of depth to Career Mode. However, the biggest change introduced this year is the debut of women\u2019s players in Ultimate Team, allowing fans to build mixed squads where the likes of Erling Haaland and Sam Kerr line up together. EA had been steadily acquiring the licenses for a number of leagues since 2015, with many believing they were building towards a Women\u2019s Ultimate Team mode. However, EA FC 24 devs have explained the decision to combine the two. \u201cRight from the beginning, it was important for us to think about Ultimate Team as one world, so again coming back to that \u2018world\u2019s game\u2019 theme,\u201d said EA FC 24 Senior Producer, Garreth Reeder, in an interview with Dexerto. \u201cWe knew it would be so powerful to have the ability to create your Ultimate Team across whatever league, gender, [or] anything else you could bring to the table.\u201d The game\u2019s Executive Producer, John Shepherd, also mentioned that the team have been laying the groundwork for incorporating women\u2019s players into Ultimate Team for some time. \u201cIt\u2019s been multiple years. Even some of the Chemistry changes were in preparation for some of these pieces,\u201d he added. \u201cAt the end of the day, it\u2019s a big mix of what football is in the world. There are different players from different eras. It\u2019s what Ultimate Team is about, it\u2019s about choice, fun, value, and being fair.\u201d Garreth Reeder went on to say that the integration of women\u2019s players in Ultimate Team is one of the additions he was most pleased about in EA FC 24 and he\u2019s delighted to see the community embrace it. \u201cIt\u2019s a bold thing to be able to put that together. It\u2019s one of the things I feel most proud of when I look at our feature set in FC 24,\u201d he continued. \u201cIt\u2019s just been amazing to see the reaction and how people are thinking about putting squads together.\u201d After this landmark year, fans will be hoping that the roster of stars from the women\u2019s game grows in future versions of Ultimate Team, to create even more opportunities for unique and diverse squads.
