Prior to Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk, Joshua finds himself making an appearance in the upcoming EA Sports FIFA 22
Although we still await a new boxing game, Anthony Joshua has managed to make his way into the world of eSports with a cameo in the new FIFA 22 game.
EA Sports have been releasing a slew of sneak peaks and videos ahead of the game’s official launch in a bid to build up hype of the game. And those releases have seen ardent players of the game notice both boxer Anthony Joshua and F1 driver Lewis Hamilton appearing in the game.
Lewis Hamilton And Anthony Joshua Make Cameos In FIFA 22
Unlike the bygone editions of FIFA, ones where players were directed to a game against the computer in a bid to acclimatise with the game, FIFA 22 takes you to the Career Mode. The early access version of the game which has been released allows players to build a character and partake in a storyline where they play a PSG vs Chelsea Champions League semi-final encounter.
During this phase, both Anthony Joshua and Lewis Hamilton make cameos. The two had previously appeared in the Volta street mode in FIFA 21 with both being characters you could chose to play the Volta mode with.
