All EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players

EA Sports has released the much-anticipated EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players as part of Black Friday celebrations in Ultimate Team, featuring some of the most overpowered players in the game. Not only is the selection of the promo roster amazing, but they can also receive further upgrades based on their team's performance in their domestic competitions.

There have been several promos with players who receive upgrades over time, including FC Pro Live and Road to the Knockouts. While the EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players do not receive as many boosts in comparison, the overall roster is much more impressive. Icons are included in the lineup as well.

Kylian Mbappe and Zinedine Zidane headline the EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players roster

Icons are some of the most popular and desirable players in Ultimate Team due to their overpowered stats and chemistry perks. Players like Zinedine Zidane, Ruud Gullit, and Lothar Matthaus are all elite-tier on the virtual pitch under the new FC IQ system. All these legends of the sport are now available alongside current-gen superstars in the EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players lineup.

Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe is the main man headlining the batch of special items, and he has received his second special item of the season already. These are all the players who are part of the promo:

• Zinedine Zidane: 95 (Icon)
• Kylian Mbappe: 93
• Ruud Gullit: 92 (Icon)
• Kevin de Bruyne: 92
• Lothar Matthaus: 91 (Icon)
• Marcus Rashford: 91

All these EA FC 25 Thunderstruck players have received significant boosts over their previous versions, which makes them usable on the virtual pitch. The likes of Zidane, Gullit, Matthaus, Vieira, Rashford, Thuram, Gyokeres, Saliba, Kounde, and Jairzinho will all be highly sought-after due to their elite-tier status. Even the low-rated players in this promo have some (very) impressive stats and attributes.

Kylian Mbappe in particular will be extremely expensive, as he is widely regarded as the best attacker in the game. He already had a Total Rush item in Ultimate Team, and this new version could go on to become 94-rated with better roles and PlayStyles, depending on how Real Madrid performs in La Liga.
