It’s nearly time. Nearly time for Europe’s best footballers to take to the biggest stage in the 2024 UEFA European Championships. Held in Germany this time around, the likes of Portugal, France, Germany and England will all be hoping they can lift the trophy, with smaller teams looking to cause the biggest of upsets. There’s no better way to get hyped than by jumping into the Euros content brought to EA Sports FC 24, and EA Sports FC Mobile.
Lead Your Nation
Now available as a free update to players of FC 24 on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC, as well as for those on FC Mobile, one of the biggest draws of the Euros update to the football gaming giant is that of Lead Your Nation mode.
This will see you picking one of the 24 qualified nations (or one of a few extra teams thrown in), creating your own player or taking control of a real-world member, and playing through the group stages and knock-outs, in an attempt to become the best of the best.
Experience authentic matchday experiences, squads, stadiums and kits as part of the best Euros production you can find. We can see many taking the likes of Jude Bellingham or Phil Foden, and helping them towards Ballon d’Or glory.
As well as Lead Your Nation mode, you can also play in a traditional Tournament mode, taking control of all players in a team, or also battle it out against others in Kick-Off or Online Friendlies Modes.
Key Features
- In Lead Your Nation mode, fans can put themselves in the heart of UEFA EURO 2024™ by leading their nation to victory, taking the tournament by storm as a real footballer or with a custom player. As they play through the stages, fans can choose to navigate the tournament as a player, while enjoying the opportunity to complete training drills to earn PlayStyles, improving their game on the way to the trophy.
- Players can also experience UEFA EURO 2024™ in a single-player Tournament Mode that allows them to write (or rewrite) the future of their nation. Choosing between one of the 24 qualified countries, or another European nation, fans can play their way out of true-to-life groups and through the knockouts.
- In Kick-Off Mode, fans can challenge one another or play against the CPU AI in an authentic tournament experience, selecting from a Group Stage or Knockout Round match, including updated “Match of the Day” fixtures that mirror the authentic tournament matchups.
- Friends can also go head-to-head and experience the excitement of the UEFA EURO 2024™ tournament with authentic matchups in Online Friendlies Mode.

Don’t worry, FUT fanatics – you will also be sufficiently pleased with the number of campaigns and special promo cards that will be brought to the popular card-collecting Ultimate Team mode.
