EA SPORTS FC 26 Phantom 6 Boots Now Available With Latest Nike Partnership
Starting today, fans can experience the new Nike Phantom 6 Low Elite “EA SPORTS FC” and High Elite “EA SPORTS FC” – both in-game and in real life. EA SPORTS FC™ 26 players will be able to obtain the boots as an earnable item in Clubs – FC’s online social mode where players create their own Virtual Pro player to play on the pitch with friends – alongside other vanity items, starting on September 29th mid-afternoon PT. This marks the latest chapter in the Nike x EA SPORTS partnership as they look to engage audiences across the physical and digital pitches they play on.
The real-life boots will also be available to purchase on Nike.com and at select retailers globally, matching the energy of the game with the relentless precision of the Phantom 6.
In Clubs, players will earn the boots by winning the Nike Phantom Cup - the Nike Phantom 6 Low Elite “EA SPORTS FC” will be earned by winning the cup once, while the Nike Phantom 6 High Elite will be unlocked by winning the cup three times. Winners of the Nike Phantom Cup will then be able to participate in the Nike Phantom Pro Cup, where successful completion will see them earn an exclusive FC 26 Clubs Archetype Card as well as additional vanity. The Clubs-first Nike Phantom Cups will also see players don a Nike Phantom kit and play their matches in a Nike Phantom themed Rush stadium. The two week in-game activation will feature the Nike Phantom Tournament from September 29 – October 13, and the Nike Phantom Pro Tournament from October 6 – October 13.
In FC Mobile, Fans can earn the Nike Phantom kits and Nike Phantom 6 Low Elite “EA SPORTS FC” by completing the Nike Phantom Challenge.
A first within the EA SPORTS FC era, this collaboration blends the real and digital worlds of football by crafting unique, virtual-first designs for both players and football fans.
