The top 50 players in FIFA 15

by Guilherme Neto

EA Sports is about to release the new FIFA 15 for multiple platforms and consoles later this month, but before the fans get their hands to the full version of this classic game, the company decided to stir up the interest even further.

The sports video games company published a list containing the names of the best 50 players in the game, in a ranking exclusively based on the players’ ratings for this edition.

Unsurprisingly, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are on the top of the list, with the Argentinian earning a slight advantage over his Real Madrid rival.

FIFA 15 will come out to stores in the USA for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC on September 23 of 2014. Europe will follow on September 26 of 2014.
