EA has introduced that the FIFA series will probably be dropping the soccer physique’s license, and can as an alternative be referred to as EA Sports FC.
The information comes after months of hypothesis that FIFA 22 could be the final FIFA recreation, with EA contemplating renaming the series resulting from excessive licensing charges from FIFA.
In a put up on EA’s web site, EVP and Group GM of EA SPORTS, Cam Weber revealed that subsequent yr will see the launch of EA Sports FC. However, for these anxious that the recreation might go the eFootball 2023 route, with scant licensing for leagues, golf equipment, and gamers, it appears EA has maintained most of its partnerships.
“Everything you love about our games will be part of EA SPORTS FC – the same great experiences, modes, leagues, tournaments, clubs, and athletes will be there,” Weber mentioned.
"Ultimate Team, Career Mode, Pro Clubs, and VOLTA Football will all be there. Our unique licensing portfolio of more than 19,000+ players, 700+ teams, 100+ stadiums and 30 leagues that we’ve continued to invest in for decades will still be there, uniquely in EA SPORTS FC. That includes exclusive partnerships with the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, the MLS – and more to come.”
Weber added that this is intended as more than just a renaming of the series too and that EA will look to innovate, “ensuring EA SPORTS FC is a symbol of change.” Details on what that change could be aren’t clear, but he says this independence will allow the series to “innovate, create and evolve”.
One more kickabout
However, regardless of early hypothesis, FIFA 22 won't be the final title in the series. There will nonetheless be another FIFA, which is ready to reach later this yr. In the put up, Weber mentioned, “EA SPORTS FC will allow us to realize this future and much more…but not before we deliver our most expansive game ever with our current naming rights partner, FIFA, for one more year.
“We are committed to ensuring the next FIFA is our best ever, with more features, game modes, World Cup content, clubs, leagues, competitions, and players than any FIFA title before.”
However, if you're enthusiastic about listening to more information on the series, don’t anticipate it any time quickly. The put up on EA’s web site says we received’t hear something about the recreation till Summer 2023.
This ends a 30-year partnership and a large change for considered one of the most profitable recreation series in the world. We should see if this title change generates any type of negativity, however seeing what the builders can do with the series with out the say-so of FIFA itself is doubtlessly fascinating.
