Bringing The Journey storymode back to EA SPORTS FC 27
Bringing The Journey storymode back to EA SPORTS FC 27
The Issue
EA Sports has delivered some of the most unforgettable football gaming experiences over the past two decades. But for many players, The Journey—introduced in FIFA 17 and ending in FIFA 19—remains one of the most emotional and innovative story modes ever created in sports gaming.
My name is Simeon, a lifelong fan of the series since FIFA 13. I’m launching this petition to ask EA Sports to bring back a new story-driven mode in the spirit of The Journey, featuring familiar characters like Alex Hunter, Kim Hunter, Danny Williams, and more.
⚽ Why We Need The Journey Back
Unlike other modes, The Journey gave us heart, narrative, and emotional connection. It allowed us to follow the personal and professional lives of characters across seasons, rivalries, triumphs, and personal growth. The final chapter (The Journey: Champions) ended beautifully—but left the door open for so much more.
📖 What Could the Future Look Like?
Here’s what a potential continuation could include:
Hunter: Legacy United
Alex Hunter returns—not as a player, but as a youth coach mentoring a rising star, while confronting old conflicts with Gareth Walker and his former agent.
Kim Hunter: The World Awaits
Kim, now captain of the USWNT, faces new pressures while mentoring a rising teenage prodigy during the lead-up to the Women’s World Cup.
Danny Williams: Rise Again
Danny’s football career is stalling, but when Gareth Walker reappears as a coach, both must grow up and redeem themselves.
Cameos and Crossovers
Fan-favorite characters like Gallo, Li-Li, Coach Butler, Jim, Catherine and even Harold Hunter could return in a cinematic, interconnected universe.
🎮 Why Now?
EA Sports FC is no longer tied to the FIFA brand—this is a golden opportunity to innovate with new storytelling. Players crave emotion, identity, and legacy—things that The Journey offered and that Career Mode can’t replicate.

Warm regards,
