But here is the most important part: to unlock all the amazing new content we’re about to show you, you must go to your settings and apply the new Squad Update from October 23. Once you’ve done that, a whole new world of authenticity will be waiting for you.

Let’s break down all the new assets that just got patched into the game.

New Stadium Aerial Intros

Four stadiums received gorgeous new aerial intros that start from a globe view, sweep into the city and rotate around the arena — a small touch that makes Career Mode fixtures and big matches feel cinematic. Here’s what’s new:

Elland Road (Leeds United): Leeds’ gritty home gets a dramatic fly-in, capturing that Yorkshire passion.

Hill Dickinson Stadium (Everton): Everton’s new turf shines with a sleek, modern twist.

Stadium of Light (Sunderland): Sunderland’s Wearside roar comes alive in this epic opener.

Turf Moor (Burnley): Burnley’s no-nonsense ground gets a fittingly intense intro.

It’s a small but mighty addition, especially for Career Mode fans—it pulls you right into the fixture. Want to see them all? Check out our article that have high-quality video: EA FC 26 All Stadium Aerial Intros.

New Tattoos

A few high-profile tattoos were added back into the game, improving likeness and immersion:

New Real Faces

Now, for the big one: Real Faces. As we covered in our exclusive article, this update adds over 200 new and updated starheads!

This is one of the biggest face scans we’ve ever seen. If you missed it, you can see the complete list below via ReFIFA YouTube Channel.

A quick note: We’ve observed that the new Real Face for Paris Saint-Germain’s Lucas Chevalier is not yet activated in-game, even after the Squad Update. It’s still hidden in the database, but we believe they will add it via a future Title Update.

We’ve also noticed that some of the newly added faces have a visual bug where their teeth appear in the wrong color. We expect EA to fix this soon.

New Live Start Points

EA FC 26 v1.1.0 expanded Live Start Points (snapshots that drop you into real-world moments) across many leagues, including:

• Premier League, EFL Championship, League One & Two
• LaLiga & LaLiga2
• Ligue 1 & 2, Bundesliga & 2, 3. Liga
• Serie A & B, Eredivisie, Liga Portugal, PKO BP Ekstraklasa
• Saudi Pro League, Süper Lig
• FA Women’s Super League, Frauen-Bundesliga, Liga F, NWSL, and more

A highlight live snapshot added: El Clásico — Real Madrid vs Barcelona (reflecting real-life results through Oct 21, 2025). Great for jumping straight into high-stakes managerial drama.

New ICONs

The update introduced several legendary Icons to Player Career mode, letting you chase storied careers or build memorable fantasy lineups:

• David Beckham
• Gianfranco Zola
• Julie Foudy
• Miroslav Klose
• Francesco Totti

These Icons bring both nostalgia and unique gameplay possibilities to Career and Player Career runs.

Final Whistle

EA FC 26 v1.1.0 Update is a welcome mix of presentation upgrades and visual TLC — cinematic stadium intros, new broadcast styles, dozens of boots and kits, hundreds of real faces, and fresh Live Start Points.

It’s a good reminder that small, authentic details (the right aerial, the right kit, the right boots) add up and make each match feel more alive.

Go update, pick your kit, lace up a new pair of boots and enjoy the fresh look and feel — and if anything looks odd, take screenshots and send the feedback: the devs are still listening.
