FIFA 18 will feature up to three unique versions of certain legendary players in FIFA Ultimate Team, EA has announced.

These alternate versions will have individual ratings and be attainable through "Stories," which highlight key points in players' careers. For example, there will be versions of Ronaldinho, who just yesterday was confirmed as a FIFA 18 Icon, from 2002, 2004, and 2010.

Other historic players who will receive multiple variations include Pele, Ronaldo Nazario, and Thierry Henry, among others.

FIFA 18 will be released worldwide on September 29 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. However, only the PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions will include its story mode, The Journey.

Those who pre-order the Ronaldo or Icon editions will get three days of early access, while EA and Origin Access subscribers can play a 10-hour trial beginning September 21.
