EA Sports FC 27 Closed Beta Leaks Reveal Extra Low Socks Feature
, by Chris
- EA Sports FC 27 Leak: Leaks from the EA Sports FC 27 closed beta reveal the addition of an "extra low socks" feature, a long-requested visual update aimed at increasing player realism by depicting how some footballers roll down their socks.
- Current Feature Implementation: In the beta, the low socks are a pre-configured visual element assigned only to specific players who wear them low in real life, such as Rio Ngumoha, and are not yet selectable in player editing or avatar customization menus.
- Future Customization Uncertainty: Despite years of requests for full control over sock length, it remains unclear whether EA Sports will make this a universal customization option before FC 27's final release or keep it as a preset feature for specific player models.
Leaks from the EA Sports FC 27 closed beta ahead of the 26-27 season have revealed a long-requested visual update for in-game player realism. Early gameplay screenshots show that EA Sports has introduced an extra low sock option, accurately capturing how certain footballers roll down their socks during actual matches.
Low Socks in EA Sports FC 27
At present, the low socks appear to be a pre-configured visual element assigned specifically to individual players who wear them low in real life, such as Liverpool youngster Rio Ngumoha. Community reports from the beta indicate that the low sock style is not yet selectable in the standard player editing or avatar customization menus, remaining restricted to preset player models.
While FIFA and EA FC players have requested full control over sock length for many years, it is still unclear whether EA Sports will expand this into a universal customization setting prior to the final release of FC 27 or maintain it solely as a preset feature for specific starheads.
