This year, there will be multiple versions of FUT Icons cards to chase after in FIFA 18. Under the name ‘Fut Icons Stories’, there’ll be three cards for each player; one to represent a particular look or era (such as Lev Yashin wearing his cap).
It’s either a neat way to depict the different aspects of a famous player’s career, or a cynical way to get people to pursue three times as many cards in EA’s incredibly lucrative FIFA Ultimate Team mode. Or a little of both. You decide.
FUT Icons used to be the exclusive preserve of the Xbox version of the game, but in FIFA 18 they’ll be showing up on all platforms. PC included. There’s a new trailer (below) showing the players announced to date who’ll be included in the Icon Stories category. Here are their stats.
