A glitch in the EA Sports FC 27 video game, which saw some women’s players appear in their underwear, will be resolved by a title update, the game’s manufacturer Electronic Arts has announced.

EAFC27, part of the world’s largest football video game franchise, was released in the United States and worldwide on September 25. Users with early access to the game, which went live on September 18, reported that some women’s character models would, in certain cut-scenes, appear without their kits, wearing only black underwear.

The issue is that Elliot Page had (likely still has) a no-nudity clause and they used him to model the character. They could have chosen to deal with an actor who did not have a no-nudity clause, but they wanted Page's name in the credits. (To avoid confusion, Elliot Page is transgender. He appeared in this game with his previous, feminine name. Doesn't change anything, but it might read as confusing that I am using male pronouns.)

That was beyond two souls, a much older game but a somewhat similar situation. Page’s model goes through a shower scene and with a modded console you could run cheats that let you change the camera angle

Oof. I remember reading about it last week and got the names confused. You're right.

Aloy's physical scan model was Hannah Hoekstra, and her voice and mocap was Ashly Burch, according to the wiki.

Uhm, Aloy wasn't designed after Elliot Page, either pre- or post-transition. Them having a no-nudity policy applies to THEIR model, not every model in-game.
