EA is making it easier for you to fit Legends in your team with Legends Chemistry. It strengthens the chemistry between them and today’s players. Every player will match leagues with FUT Legends, meaning they will have an orange link with all players. Now you only need to pair Nationality between a player and a Legend to create the strong green link on the pitch. So, if you are building a squad with all new Legend Deco, he’ll have a medium connection with Oscar but a strong connection with his fellow countryman, Cristiano Ronaldo.
The chemistry of Legends has changed in FIFA 16
As you probably already know, Legends will remain exclusive to Microsoft consoles Xbox 360 and XBox One. If you have plans to play FIFA 16 with one of the more than 60 Legends, and you are a owner of a Playstation, you will have to change your console.
The announce of the new legends was made during the Microsoft Conference on Gamescom 2015.
