The Norwegian known for bursting down the left wing and unleashing his devastating left-footed rockets at Anfield, now becomes a Hero in EA SPORTS FC 24; The Arctic Soldier. Growing up, Riise’s training regime was a testament to his unwavering dedication. Daily runs, tireless repeated uphill sprints, and complete focus on practicing only his left foot – despite what coaches told him – he pushed himself to the limits and honed his skills with relentless determination.
To celebrate Riise as a Hero, EA SPORTS FC has produced a video that highlights his determined training routine by running through Norway’s spectacular sights and beautiful fjords, ending up at a deserted football pitch where he shoots and unleashes the raw power of his robotic left foot.
“As a pro footballer, you sometimes get chances to be a hero. Seeing me as the Arctic Soldier makes me proud and I can’t wait to play EA Sports FC 24”, says John Arne Riise.
Players who pre-order EA SPORTS FC 24 Ultimate Edition by August 22 will receive one of 19 Heroes in their Ultimate Team when they become available in-game this November, as well as 7 day early access to the game starting September 22, 2023.
