After thirty years of existence and over 325 million copies sold, FIFA games are no more. Its replacement, EA Sports FC, is supposed to be a revolution in graphics and play style. 

Before the game’s release in September 2023, players worldwide want to know how this new game will differ from the beloved FIFA series. Let’s recap all the exciting changes expected for that new release.

No More FIFA, Long Live to EAFC

Electronic Arts still has full control over the game, announcing many changes from the latest version of FIFA. For starters, Electronic Arts insist on hyperrealism, as the main budget of the game consisted in capturing the exact gestures of more than 180 international players. With the help of brand-new motion capture techniques, the game will feel more real than ever.

Every FIFA game since 1993 strives for more realism, and this one is no exception. With the introduction of a new engine called Frostbite, players’ faces will feel even more realistic, pushing the graphic limits of every platform on which the game will be released.

However, EACF 24 is already facing criticism for the graphics of its trailer. Some players look more natural than others. After all, trailers are designed to look better than the game, and some players feel cheated when playing the actual thing. 

Different Game, Same Feeling of Being Home

FIFA players know that the secret ingredient of this game doesn’t rely on technology, though. Just like online casino players, they usually praise a fun and intuitive gameplay that takes a few minutes to learn and a lifetime to master. Career modes will be extremely detailed, and players will be able to witness the progress of an incredibly vast selection of 19 000 football players worldwide.

The new game will feature more technical traits, such as playstyles. Based on real data from the world’s top players, playstyle is a unique feat that can be used to manage and win match matches with a strategic perspective. This attention to detail will make EACF 24 worth playing for football connoisseurs that enjoy the feeling of control. It will be available in modes such as Ultimate Team, Clubs and Career.

The game boasts a grand total of 700 teams, more than 100 stadiums, 30 championships, and many other surprises. Exploring every aspect of the game in one lifetime won’t be possible.

Introduction of Female Teams: a Revolution in Video Games

Female football is gaining momentum as more and more people are showing interest in female tournaments. EAFC 24 will include dozens of female national teams in a world dominated by men for so long. It is a great improvement, as many female players are increasingly recognized in football.

As for any other kind of team, you can manage a female team in EAFC and see players’ progress over time. This game’s most innovative trait is mixing male and female players in your fixture.

Nowadays, the US team leads the international female football championship, but teams like France and Morocco are also very strong and offer quality football. The introduction of Nouhaila Benzina, a Moroccan attacker playing with a veil, shows that the licence is willing to show inclusion and realism in their gameplay.

When and Where Can I Buy EAFC 24?

EACF 24 is the most awaited game of the season. It will be released on a handful of platforms, such as Xbox Series, PS5, and Nintendo Switch, on the 29th of September. This game will also be available on PC with the Steam platform and the Epic Games store.

You can pre-order the game in various versions (Standard or Ultimate), giving you instant access to many privileges, such as FC points. Because Electronic Arts makes the game, it will include micro-transactions that can earn you items and specific features throughout your journey.
