The third and final cover star has been confirmed for the upcoming FIFA 20 game. On Tuesday (July 30), EA revealed that Zinédine Zidane will appear as the FIFA 20 Ultimate Edition cover star. He joins Eden Hazard and Virgil van Dijk as this year’s official cover athletes heading into the season. Here are more details on Zidane and the upcoming game details.
Zinédine Zidane is FIFA 20 Ultimate Edition cover star
Several days ago, we reported on the FIFA 20 rumors that the gaming community sparked. Based on some EA clues that gamers found online, many people correctly guessed that Zinédine Zidane would be the final cover star. It’s now officially confirmed as the former Juventus and Real Madrid footballer graces the cover for FIFA 20 Ultimate Edition.
Zidane played his first three years with Juventus and then finished with his final five for Real Madrid. Over the course of his eight-year career, he tallied 49 goals and 57 assists. Zidane also achieved a Champions League and La Liga Championship during his run. In 1998 he won the coveted Ballon d’Or as an award for his impressive season of work. To say he’s deserving of an “Ultimate” cover, is an understatement.
As mentioned, FIFA 20’s other cover stars are Eden Hazard on the Standard Edition and Virgil van Dijk on the Champions Edition.
FIFA 20’s official release date is on Friday, September 27, 2019. However, fans can pre-order the FIFA 20 Ultimate Edition or Champions Edition to get them three days earlier. There’s also the ability to use an EA Access or Origin Premier membership for an early trial of the game about a week earlier.
The Ultimate Edition carries a price tag of $99.99 and will be available for Sony PlayStation 4, Microsoft Xbox One, and Windows PCs. It’s pricey, but is the top version of the three as it will bring even more bonus content with it. See our FIFA 20 pre-order details for more information on what each of the editions of the game include.
