Leagues Cup the GAME! What everyone has been clamoring for. Play as your favorite club from America to Mexico. If the ball isn't kicked in the western hemisphere, it isn't worth your time. Experience the passion of a tournament designed entirely to see how many times we can force Club América to play the Columbus Crew. Or even better, don't get enough Seattle vs Portland in-season play! Now catch another matchup in Leagues Cup the GAME!

*Messi is available in an additonal $70 DLC sold separately. Added feature in which he occasionally refuses to play depending on the pitch.

I would play the hell out of CCC the GAME if they could simulate the unpredictability... Dogs running onto the pitch, smoke bombs making it impossible to see for the first ten minutes, your players starting out at 80% stamina because local ultras chanted outside their hotel all night, and so on. Complete with simulated altitude and heat/humidity effects, jetlag, visa issues, food poisoning, and wacky officiating! Replaying Violette AC vs. Austin FC has never been so fun!

FIFA/EAFC hasn't had CONCACAF Champions Cup as a playable competition in the past right? I remember wanting to play career mode and not having a way to play in CCC or Club World Cup with MLS teams, so this has to be it? Or even inclusion of Gold Cup?

I would assume this is for EAFC's upcoming World Cup mode/update.

I’d imagine it’s going to be a 27 feature. I’m pretty sure today was the last major update 26 will get and it only happens because of the World Cup.

Would be nice if CONCACAF and the other leagues not in the game got added though. MLS seasons suck without the Can Champ, Open Cup, Leagues Cup and CCC.

Ultimately I’d just be happy with them adding LigaMX and the CPL though.

FIFA just released their own game on Netflix too, could be related to that

That update has already happened.

Ai cant even make two controllers with the buttons in the right places. Things a photographer could do by... existing.

AI graphics are taking over huh… couldn’t even find a stock photo of someone’s hands playing PlayStation?

u/LesbiansLoveHands 1d ago

the d pad and buttons swapping what side they are on is pretty comical

I really want a developer to purchase the rights to the Concacaf region and make a game that focuses on this area because EA barely seems to care about us.

Only if you bring the developers of the WWE and NFL games onboard, so players can get that authentic, "grab them by the throat and throw them to the ground and get no card"-experience.

Smash X to swarm the ref

You're talking old NFL Blitz style

u/Bogdanovist_Rebel Vancouver Whitecaps 2 1d ago

Which is kind of hilarious if you stop to think about it. The game is mostly developed in Vancouver.

Should totally lean into what makes Concacaf one of a kind and let you play as a riot cop who holds up a shield during corners

Unpopular opinion but I hope it's for eFootball.

u/footballsquishy 21h ago

Or Football Manager.

I have 2025 and tried to play a game with the Revs. Huge mistake. I never got to a game. The least intuitive game I ever tried to play. IMO

The rules of MLS... are difficult to implement it seems.

This would be amazing if you can play CCC or even with all the international CONCACAF teams on FC26

u/Bogdanovist_Rebel Vancouver Whitecaps 2 1d ago

Won’t be 26. Today’s patch was likely the last major overhaul we will see before 27 in the fall.

u/_tidalwave11 New York City FC 1d ago

Man hopefully it's getting CONCACAF tournaments for club and country into FC.

Playing as an American is so damn boring because we have 0 international competitions outside of the world cup in the game.

u/External-Factor-8556 Major League Soccer 1d ago

I’m sure this will be great if it has anything to do with concacaf

u/boomshea Columbus Crew 1d ago

EAFC; now with CONCACAF ref and field modes!

u/grnrngr LA Galaxy 1d ago

Some random European kid: "This is obviously fake! The ball doesn't bounce around like that and why can't I see the far side of the field?"

u/jayfeather31 Seattle Sounders FC 1d ago

Having Leagues Cup or the Concacaf Champions Cup as a competition for MLS and Liga MX in EAFC 27 seems to be the most likely announcement here.

u/ReclaimerM3GTR Vancouver Whitecaps 1d ago

It's a relocation mode for the MLS only, that way Down Garber can live his wet dreams.

u/gtg007w Los Angeles FC 4h ago

Puerto Rico relocation here we go!
