They are joined by Hollywood celebrities Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who have recently completed their takeover of non-league club Wrexham.

The trailer starts with Manchester United legend Beckham receiving a mysterious briefcase at his doorstep.

When the Inter Miami president opens it he finds a copy of the game, which features Paris Saint-Germain superstar Mbappe in its cover.

Once Becks puts it in his console the world opens its door to another dimension.

A number of current and former footballers, such as Mbappe, Son, Ferdinand and several Chelsea stars, are taken by hypermotion.

Wrexham co-owner and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia creator McElhenney is also snatched by the mysterious entity, which is not too keen on Deadpool star Reynolds and leaves him behind.

At the same time, players and legends' digital copies enter our world and that is when we see Beckham playing the game with his CGI alter ego.

EA Sports introduce their new hypermotion model in the game which will make it all look "beyond real".

Former Real manager Zidane explains it with the following monologue: "If we are capable of duplicating reality, what makes us still human?

"Is it our memories? Is it our emotions? No!
