FIFA has officially announced the global launch of FIFA Heroes, developed by Solace in partnership with FIFA, the fast-paced, five-a-side non-simulation arcade football game is designed specifically for a mobile-first generation that experiences football culture through highlights, social feeds, and creator-driven moments.

The title is available today on iOS and Android across all major markets, with PC and console releases scheduled for the near future.

Highlighting the changing landscape of global football consumption, game director for FIFA Heroes, Andy Tudor, said: “Football has never been confined to 90 minutes, the sport has never been bigger, and the way people experience it has expanded even further. It now lives not only on the pitch, but across highlights, social feeds, creators, and everyday culture. We’ve built a game for that.”

Enzo Fernandez, who officially endorses the title, emphasized the fan connection driven by gaming:

“Football is everything because of the fans. They live every pass, every goal and every moment with us, whether they are in the stadium, watching at home, sharing clips or playing with friends. Gaming is another way for people to feel that passion and stay close to the sport they love.”

The game features an eclectic, unlockable roster of playable characters built with distinct abilities that directly influence team composition and playing style. Players can build their squads using a diverse lineup of real-world personalities and fictional figures:

  • Featured Headliners: FIFA World Cup™ winner Enzo Fernandez, Joao Pedro, iShowSpeed, J Balvin, Central Cee, and Luva de Pedreiro.
  • Official World Cup Mascots: Playable characters include Maple™ the Moose (representing Canada), Zayu™ the Jaguar (representing Mexico), and Clutch™ the Bald Eagle (representing the USA).
  • Audio Integration: The game will come pre-installed on select Motorola devices and features an exclusive soundtrack containing unreleased tracks from Central Cee, Raiser, Karri, and more.
