A new football simulation from Electronic Arts is released every year.
"FIFA 23" is next in line.
When can a release be expected?
Since October 1, 2021, fans can play the last version of the football simulation "FIFA" on the PC or on the console.
But after the release is before the release: this year, as usual, the next part of the EA series will come.
But when exactly can a publication be expected?
Release date for “FIFA 23”: when can we expect it?
The games in the "FIFA" series are usually released in the autumn of a year.
EA recently officially announced the release date.
"FIFA 23" will therefore be released on September 30, 2022
.
Thanks to Early Access, those who pre-order the "FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition" will get access three days earlier on September 27th.
Fans have to be prepared that the new game could be available under this name for the last time.
Electronic Arts does not want to extend the current agreement with FIFA, as the publisher announced in autumn 2021.
Instead, the game series could be called
"EA Sports FC"
in the future .
EA applied for the trademark rights for this at the beginning of October, as can be seen in the database of the German Patent and Trademark Office in Munich and in the UK Intellectual Property Office.
With the renaming, the "FIFA" era of almost 30 years would come to an end.
What will be different in "FIFA 23"?
Every year, EA is criticized again because players have to pay full price for every part of the series, even though the changes are sometimes extremely small.
This could be the end of “FIFA 23” or “EA Sports FC”.
As reported, among other things,
by ingame.de
, citing the FIFA leaker and Twitter user
Donk
, the new game could be
free-to-play
*.
EA would thus be following in the footsteps of its competitor Konami, who has already said goodbye to the old model with “eFootball”.
According to the leak, there should also be
crossplay
to be possible.
With this feature, PC, PlayStation, and Xbox gamers could finally compete against each other instead of just staying on their platform.
However, there is no concrete information or official announcements yet.
