That means that we’ll be missing out on the latest kits and player likenesses. But Konami says that all squads will be "in line" with those of the qualifying nations via playing styles being replicated by the Player ID and Team ID systems.

The Republic of Ireland isn’t the only team not licensed for this DLC. Licenses haven’t been acquired for Romania, Switzerland, Russia, Poland, Belgium, Sweden, or Austria either. The 15 licensed teams (of 24 competing) are: the hosts France, along with Northern Ireland, England, Wales, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ukraine, Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovakia, Iceland, Turkey, and Albania.
