People of all ages love FIFA 18, but some fans have found some imagery in the game which may not be suitable for a younger audience.

One of the kits in the game apparently seems to depict two people on the sleeve with their hands in rather… private areas. 

Some have reacted with disgust, but certain music fans have recognised the picture immediately.

Catfish and the Bottlemen - The Balcony album cover

Is this special kit in FIFA 18 unsuitable for children? Some think so, but it’s just an album cover

A Reddit user noticed the out of place looking picture and posted an image recently, which has since started popping up all over the place. 

The image, which shows the outline of two people each with a hand down the other person’s trsouers, is actually the album artwork for The Balcony by British rock band Catfish and the Bottlemen.

The band have appeared on the FIFA soundtrack on a couple of occasions, and were rewarded with their own special kit in the game. 

Of course, the image isn’t particularly graphic, and EA Sports must have known about the kit when they put it in the game, so any outrage is probably unwarranted.

You may even own the kit without realising it, as it was included with all pre-orders of FIFA 18. It’s been in the game since release, so it’s a surprise that some people have only just noticed it.

It’s part of a special run of custom strips for Ultimate Team, which include the likes of Bloc Party, Capital Cities, and esports teams Vitality and Liquid. 

Since it’s gained all this publicity, you can probably expect to be seeing a lot more of it in your Ultimate Team games over the coming weeks.
