EA Sports FC Mobile is continuing its partnership with Major League Soccer and Apple TV for a second year, bringing a select group of live MLS matches directly into the game through in-game simulcasts. Following last year’s debut of live match integration, the focus remains on giving players more ways to connect with the sport beyond simply playing matches.
The 2026 schedule gets underway tomorrow when Real Salt Lake takes on Inter Miami CF, the reigning 2025 MLS Cup champions. This matchup marks the first of five games that will be available to watch inside the app through FCM TV with players able to follow the action while continuing their in-game experience.
The full lineup of matches stretches from April through October, featuring Minnesota United vs Austin FC on May 10, Chicago Fire vs Vancouver Whitecaps on July 16, LAFC vs Vancouver Whitecaps on October 10 and LAFC vs LA Galaxy on October 25. Each broadcast is scheduled to be available live within the game, giving players a consistent slate of events throughout the MLS season.
