FIFA Heroes is an upcoming arcade video game developed and published by ENVER Studio in partnership with FIFA.
It is FIFA's first licensed game announced since its agreement with EA Sports came to a close in 2022.
Gameplay
FIFA Heroes will be a five-a-side arcade football game in which players field teams composed of international football personalities, recognisable fictional characters, and FIFA’s official mascots, including mascots created for the FIFA World Cup 26. Unlike the EA Sports FIFA series and other traditional football simulators, the game will be designed around a fast-paced, exaggerated arcade-style format. Players will assemble squads and compete in either single-player PvE modes or multiplayer matches against other players.
Mascots and characters will each possess unique super abilities and special moves, and matches will feature dynamic physics and pitch-altering power attacks. According to FIFA, players will be able to take part in quick arcade matches and structured PvE challenges to progress their club through career-style milestones within the five-a-side format.[1][2]
Characters
The game will feature current FIFA World Cup players including Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane and Emiliano Martínez, historical legends such as Diego Maradona, and a selection of mythological icons including Thor and Sun Wukong appearing alongside the official mascots of the FIFA World Cup 2026.[3][1]
Development
FIFA Partnership
In October 2022, FIFA confirmed that it would no longer grant an exclusive licence to EA Sports for the use of the FIFA name after the two failed to reach an agreement over licensing fees. Instead, FIFA announced its plans to create a "new gaming model", and "work with a range of third-party studios and publishers" to develop a range of games.[4]
In October 2025, FIFA announced the release of FIFA Heroes, the first new title released, produced in partnership with Solace and developed by New York studio, ENVER.
Motorola
In March 2026, Motorola announced that most new devices would come with the game pre-downloaded, with custom gameplay designed for the latest Razr fold as well as exclusive rewards for Motorola users including currency, emotes and players.[5][6]
Release
FIFA Heroes will be released in 2026 with no specific date announced.[2]
