Naturally, having Reynolds and McElhenney means humor is on the FC 25 Coins table. This is shown by Reynolds' embrace of a little boy‘s theory of a Wrexham and Deadpool connection or their desire to renovate the team's facilities since they arrived, all to the tune of the supporters chanting Elvis Presley's “Can't Help Falling in Love.”
This early trailer does show a ton of emotion, and Reynolds and McElhenney's first full season saw the team almost achieve promotion after narrowly losing in the play-off semifinal against Grimsby Town. It was a 5-4 extra time defeat, and a heart-breaking moment that‘s likely to make its way in the docu-series.
