The first batch of EA FC 27 ratings were released on Monday and they were filled with surprises.
While Kylian Mbappé was expected to have the highest rating in the game as this year’s cover star, he’s not the only one with the rating. In fact, he shares it with two players.
Here are the highlights from EA FC 27’s Top 27:

After trading goals in the Golden Boot race at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland will enter the season as the two highest-rated men’s players in EA FC 27 with 91 overall ratings. The only other player to earn that rating this year is two-time Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas, who notably left FC Barcelona Femení for the London City Lionesses this past summer.

Lionel Messi came just short of winning the World Cup, but his eight-goal and four-assist outing at the tournament raised his rating from 86 last year to 89 this year. The rating marks Messi’s highest rating in the game since 2023, when he won the Ballon d’Or for the eighth time.
Olise Makes The Leap

Michael Olise’s ascension into superstardom continues with a sizable jump in his EA FC rating. Olise entered last season as one of 26 players with an 86 overall rating; this year, he enters the season as one of just 11 players with a 90 overall rating. Olise had seven assists at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which is the most assists by a player in a single edition of the tournament.
