has been utilized in a video game of some form, though it debuted early in "The Journey: Champions" in Kim Hunter's story mode, with fewer women's teams as opponents along with a fictionalized arena since there was still qualifying during that time as ''FIFA 19'' was still being developed.

The Journey: Champions

The story-based mode that was introduced in '' FIFA 17'' returns in this installment and continues for the last installment under the title "The Journey: Champions". In this installment, Alex Hunter signs for

and tries to become their star player after

leaves for Italian giants

. As ''FIFA 19'' has the full Champions League licence, Hunter also competes for Champions League glory. Danny Williams returns trying to carve out a name for himself and compete for the Champions League hardware. Alex Hunter's half-sister, Kim Hunter, tries to compete for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. The game mode features guest stars such as Kevin De Bruyne,

and Paulo Dybala. Gareth Walker and Dino, who previously appeared in '' FIFA 17'' and '' FIFA 18'', do not appear in the storyline for unknown reasons, though Walker does send the characters a few abusive tweets during the story. The game also introduces other fictional new characters whose names include Beatriz "Bea" Villanova, who is Alex Hunter's new agent, Danny Williams' estranged brother and Paris Saint-Germain F.C. defender Terry, USWNT coach Marriane de Silva,

Real Madrid C.F. Real Madrid Club de Fútbol (), commonly referred to as Real Madrid, is a Spanish professional Football club (association football), football club based in Madrid. The club competes in La Liga, th ...

coach Bartholomew Cazares, Danny Williams friend Ringo, and Melanie Trembley, a player of the Canada women's national team who serves as Kim Hunter's rival in her story. Also, this story mode is somehow out of order as it allows the player to choose between 3 different characters, altering between different months in the series.

Story

The story starts out with Alex Hunter, his half-sister Kim, and Danny Williams watching a video of Hunter's grandfather, Jim Hunter, scoring his 100th career goal for his club in a First Division match at Coventry City. Prior to that (as the calendar flashes back to previous months), they train with their respective teams for the pre-season friendly tournament which is being held in Japan, where in semifinals Danny faces Club América, and Alex is playing against

, who has

and a mysterious defender (who, in twist of events, is Danny's brother Terry Williams) - ending with Alex and Danny's teams facing each other in the tournament's final (or third place match if Danny's team loses). After it, Toro says to Alex that he never received his apology. Alex either apologizes and reconciles with his former friends, with Li-Li suggesting that they go to eat some sushi, or either becomes Toro's arch-rival, with Li-Li explaining that Alex is just not hanging on with Toro, who is looking forward to face Alex in the next game. Kim Hunter trains with the USWNT and forms a partnership with Alex Morgan. Alex Hunter later meets with Beatriz Villanova, the football agent that contacted him at the end of the previous journey – promising to make Alex an icon in world football. She keeps her promise and tells Alex that

have offered him a 5-year contract, which he accepts and heads over to Spain to his new club. Alex is yet to make his Champions League debut and gets help from various mentors in the team to help him boost his stats. Alex and Danny play in the Champions League group stage matches. Alex's group include Tottenham Hotspur or

and Shakhtar Donetsk. Both Alex and Danny's teams make it out of their groups and are drawn at opposite ends of the bracket. By this point Alex has become increasingly caught up in his brand and sponsor duties from his agents demands and the increasing fame is starting to drive a wedge between his family. This is further seen when Kim comes to visit Alex before the World Cup and Alex does not go to pick her up from the airport due to him being too busy with his new clothing brand, much to both Kim and his mother's dismay. Due to this, Alex is dropped from both the starting XI and substitutes before the second-leg of the first knockout round in the Champions League against

, meaning he has to fight his way back to the starting lineup to regain his manager's trust. At the same time Danny is also having agent issues as his friend Ringo and his agent Michael which results in both agents having an argument over Danny wanting a new house or not, with the player given a choice as to which person he sides with. Alex and Beatriz then go to visit Kim before the first Women's World Cup knockout game and Beatriz, having been impressed by Kim's abilities, tells her that she should go pro and not go to college. Back in the Champions League, Alex faces Juventus in the quarterfinal and Manchester United or

Roma in the round of 16, Bayern Munich in quarterfinal and once again, his brother's side PSG in the semifinal. Both defeat their rivals and progress to the Champions League Final. Kim and the USA team reach the final of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup where they face up against their national rivals, Canada, led by Melanie Trembley. If USA win the final, Kim celebrates and is later implied to have signed a professional deal with a club. If the team loses the final Kim returns to college to finish her studies, but still hopes to go pro one day. In the 2019 Champions League Final at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid, Real Madrid face Danny's (Alex's former)

side. Regardless of who wins the final, the losing character takes their defeat graciously as the other celebrates being crowned the best club team in Europe. Both Danny and Alex reconcile after the final, along with Li-Li and Toro (who was apologized earlier; if Alex was hostile, Toro leaves the pitch). The game ends with Jim telling Alex that he has never been prouder of him and that when he retires, he will be the greatest Hunter of all time, drawing Alex Hunter's journey to an end. The ending of Danny Williams story mode has either him congratulating Terry or being confronted for his loss.
