Charli xcx, Billie Eilish, Fred again.., Ice Spice, Glass Animals and J Balvin are among the more than 100 artists featured on the soundtrack to EA SPORTS FC 25, now available on Spotify.

The game itself launches 9/27 on PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo, though those who pony up for the Ultimate Edition will receive access a week early.

As usual, this iteration of EA SPORTS FC sports a huge range of acts from around the world, including South Africa's Moonchild Sanelly, Afro-Colombian group Kombilesa Mi, Japanese drill rapper JUMADIBA, Afrobeats artist Obongjayar, Polish hip-hop star MATA and Argentine singer Delfina Dib. Unreleased songs by Coldplay, FKA twigs and Catfish and the Bottlemen will be added to the soundtrack later this year.

“The EA Music team has spent nearly a year curating an epic soundtrack that will define the sound of the coming season and elevate the spirit of the game like never before," enthused EA Worldwide Executive and President of Music Steve Schnur.

HITS, on the other hand, has spent the past year curating a very short list of people who will still answer our phone calls.
