The gaming community has been buzzing with anticipation and confusion over the upcoming EA SPORTS FC, a football simulation game developed as an alternative to FIFA. This new title comes in response to the recent breakdown of the partnership between EA and FIFA, leaving fans uncertain about what lies ahead for their beloved franchise.
For years, EA Sports has dominated the football simulator subgenre with its highly successful FIFA series, while competitors like eFootball and Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) have struggled to dethrone it. However, with this new development, EA SPORTS FC aims to fill the void left by the severed ties between EA and FIFA. U7BUY will continue to provide FIFA coins trading service to players in the upcoming FIFA 24.
As details continue to emerge about this intriguing alternative to FIFA, let’s delve into what we know so far about EA SPORTS FC and explore rumors surrounding a potential release of FIFA 24.
What is EA Sports FC? New FIFA alternative
EA Sports has announced that EA SPORTS FC will be the official football game replacing the FIFA franchise. This decision came about in 2022 when EA Sports made the choice not to renew its license agreement with FIFA (Federation Internationale de Football Association). As a result, FIFA 23 marked the final title under the FIFA branding.
While there is a rebranding of the name, fans can expect EA SPORTS FC to encompass all the beloved features and gameplay elements found in traditional FIFA games. From Ultimate Team and Career Mode to Pro Clubs and other fan-favorite modes, players can look forward to an immersive football experience.
One notable aspect worth mentioning is that despite losing the official FIFA license, EA SPORTS FC will still retain licenses for teams, kits, and leagues. This means that players can still enjoy authentic representations of their favorite clubs within this new game.
Will there be a FIFA 24?
It has been confirmed that there will still be a new football game carrying the FIFA name. But it won’t be developed by EA though, which means it will be a direct competitor to EA Sports FC and will be made by a new developer entirely.
We’ll update you once FIFA decides to announce its new football game. There is an initial release date of EA Sports FC, September 29th, 2023.
