The Elite Unveiled: EA Sports FC 26’s Top 32 Teams Revealed
Sep
The highly anticipated EA Sports FC 26 ratings reveal is officially set to kick off on September 8th, but the excitement has already begun! EA Sports has given fans a tantalizing sneak peek, releasing the first batch of club ratings for the upcoming game, highlighting the 32 highest-rated teams across both men’s and women’s football.
Unlike the traditional 99-overall system seen in games like Madden, FC 26 employs a star rating for clubs in modes such as Kick-Off. The pinnacle of club excellence in FC 26 is represented by a coveted five-star rating. While the wait for individual Ultimate Team ratings continues, this initial reveal offers a fascinating glimpse into the game’s top-tier contenders.
Men’s Football: The Seven Five-Star Elites
Only seven men’s teams have achieved the prestigious five-star rating in EA Sports FC 26, solidifying their status as the game’s most dominant forces. These include:
- Real Madrid
- Barcelona
- Paris Saint-Germain
- Liverpool
- Manchester City
- Arsenal
- Bayern Munich
Notably, while Barcelona, PSG, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich all clinched their respective league titles, some intriguing inclusions and omissions stand out. Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Arsenal, despite not winning their leagues last season, have earned top billing.
