If there’s any more reason to love Electronic Arts, it would be this story. In May 18th, 2006, in London, England, 15-year-old Kiyan Prince was tragically stabbed, whilst bravely intervening to stop the bullying of another boy. He played for the Queens Park Rangers youth team and was tipped as a rising star, but his life was sadly cut short by knife crime.
Electronic Arts has gone and done a great thing by honouring his legacy by adding him into FIFA 21 on the 15th anniversary of his tragic death. This is also to bring awareness to the catastrophic effects of knife crime.
Electronic Arts tweeted, “15 years ago today, Kiyan Prince lost his life. Today, we honour his legacy and the player he was destined to become. Introducing QPR’s new number 30.” They had also made a heart-warming trailer about him, which involves his father. Electronic Arts has truly done a brilliant gesture and should never be forgotten.
