Probably because it is the last episode of FIFA developed between Electronic Arts and the International Football Federation, FIFA 23 got off to a thunderous start, to the point of becoming the franchise's record launch in terms of number of registered players the first week of release. FIFA 23 has indeed attracted 10.3 million players, which is 1.2 million more than last year and its 9.1 million players for FIFA 22, already considered a record. Obviously, on the side of Electronic Arts, we are proud of such a success and we also hope that the transition next year will be done without losing too much of the community. "The response from our fans has been nothing short of amazing, and we're thrilled to have our community playing with their favorite players and teams on FIFA 23 in record numbers," EA Sports Chief Executive Nick Wlodyka said before commenting. adding that "with the men's and women's World Cups and exciting updates to our women's club football content still to come, we are just beginning to deliver the most authentic and immersive experience for players to date. ." We recall that next year, Electronic Arts will release its football game under the EA Sports FC label, while the governing body of world football will try to bring the FIFA game to life with another development studio. Which of the two will do better? Answer next year, but one thing is certain, the battle is likely to be heated between the two parties.
