EA FC 27 France Licenses
Leagues
France is in excellent shape when it comes to league licensing. Ligue 1 will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official brand name, logo, graphics, and iconic trophy, according to the partnership between EA and the LFP.
Ligue 2 will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official brand name, logo, graphics, and iconic trophy, according to the partnership between EA and the LFP.
Career Mode players who love the challenge of taking a second-tier club to the top will have the full real experience at their fingertips.
And the women’s game is covered too. The Première Ligue will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official brand name, logo, graphics, and iconic trophy, according to the partnership between EA and the LFFP.
Women’s football in France has grown massively, with Lyon and PSG leading the way on the European stage, so keeping the top women’s league fully authentic is a huge plus.
Now, here is the one piece of news that might disappoint some fans. It is confirmed that Ligue 3 will not be added to EA FC 27, but it is in the plans for future video games.
So we might see it in EA FC 28 or EA FC 29. It is a shame for anyone who wanted to take a National-level club all the way to the top, but at least we know it is on EA’s radar. Patience, as they say, is a virtue.
Cups
The Coupe de France will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official brand name, logo, graphics, and iconic trophy, according to the partnership between EA and the FFF.
The Trophée des Champions will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official brand name, logo, graphics, and iconic trophy, according to the partnership between EA and the LFP.
Whether it is PSG lifting yet another trophy or an underdog shocking the champions, the presentation will be spot on.
Broadcast Packages
The official Ligue 1 broadcast packages and graphics will remain present and authentic in EA FC 27, and we can expect a few changes.
EA usually tweaks the overlays and transitions each year, so do not be surprised if the scoreboard and pre-match graphics look a little fresher.
The official Ligue 2 broadcast packages and graphics will remain present and authentic in EA FC 27, and we can expect a few changes on that too.
And the official Première Ligue broadcast packages and graphics will remain present and authentic in EA FC 27, with a few changes expected as well.
All three leagues will keep their distinct visual identities, which is exactly what you want when jumping between competitions.
Teams
All existing clubs remain fully licensed. New teams joining the game include:
- Dijon FCO – fully licensed.
- Sochaux – fully licensed.
- Toulouse FC Féminines – fully licensed (Première Ligue).
- US Saint-Malo Féminines – fully licensed (Première Ligue).
That is four new fully licensed clubs expanding the French database, which is always great news for Career Mode fans who want more depth and variety in their saves.
All 18 Ligue 1 clubs, 18 Ligue 2 clubs, and 12 Première Ligue clubs will feature authentic branding and real-world players.
National Teams
The France National Team will remain fully licensed in EA FC 27, featuring the official crest and kits, according to the partnership between EA and the FFF.
And the France Women’s National Team will remain fully licensed too, featuring the official crest and kits.
Whether you are managing France in an international tournament or just fancy a friendly at the Stade de France, both the men’s and women’s sides will look exactly as they should.
Stadiums
The following licensed stadiums are confirmed for EA FC 27:
- Decathlon Arena – Stade Pierre-Mauroy (LOSC Lille)
- Groupama Stadium – Olympique Lyonnais
- Orange Vélodrome – Olympique de Marseille
- Parc des Princes – Paris Saint-Germain
- Stade Bollaert-Delelis – RC Lens
- Stade de la Beaujoire – FC Nantes
A reliable source suggests there might be a new licensed stadium from France in EA FC 27, though it’s not yet confirmed. Here are the expected candidates:
- Stade Louis II – AS Monaco (capacity 18,523)
- Allianz Riviera – OGC Nice (capacity 35,624)
- Roazhon Park – Stade Rennais (capacity 29,778)
Real Managers
Here is where France falls a little short. Luis Enrique of Paris Saint-Germain is the only manager with a real face for Ligue 1 who is confirmed for EA FC 27. That is it. One manager. For a league with the history and star power of Ligue 1, having just one real managerial face is disappointing.
You would hope EA puts more effort into scanning the likes of Eric Roy at Brest, Franck Haise at Lens, or Paulo Fonseca at Lyon. But for now, Luis Enrique stands alone.
Real Faces
EA FC 26 presented some new real faces for Ligue 1 players in its final updates. If these faces are proper scans (not custom), we should see them carry over to EA FC 27. Here are the top 6 Ligue 1 players who need new real faces:
- Matvey Safonov – Paris Saint-Germain
- Dro Fernández – Paris Saint-Germain
- Arthur Vermeeren – Olympique de Marseille
- Mamadou Sangaré – RC Lens
- Robin Risser – RC Lens
- Afonso Moreira – Olympique Lyonnais
Final Whistle
France’s football ecosystem in EA FC 27 is shaping up to be as authentic as ever. With all leagues fully licensed, new teams like Dijon FCO and Sochaux joining.
And the potential addition of new stadiums (Stade Louis II, Allianz Riviera, Roazhon Park), Career Mode and Ultimate Team fans have plenty to look forward to.
The Ligue 1 real face updates will also enhance immersion. EA FC 27 is still months away, but France’s licenses are already looking solid.
