It's just a matter of hours until EA Sports release the hotly anticipated EA FC 24, the latest in the company's wildly popular football gaming series and the first since severing ties with the FIFA name.
Clubs and players from all over the globe are included in the game, which is played by eight million people every month, including many lovers of the sport in Scotland.
As they arrived at Tynecastle, Hearts stars were cornered by the club's media team to be shown a sneak peak of their player ratings and attributed as assigned by the gamemakers.
Here's what they made of their cards and ratings.
9. Lawrence Shankland - 74
“The pace is insulting, I’m obviously faster than that. Shooting good. My passing is lower than my dribbling, which is probably false. Defending, 28, that is wrong. I’m the best defender here! I’m fine with that.” | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
