FIFA 23, which will soon pass the torch to a certain EA Sports FC 24, has just included a great novelty which marks a real turning point for the license.
For a few more weeks, football fans will continue to play games on FIFA 23 before migrating to EA Sports FC 24, which opens a new era in the history of EA Sports. Players will certainly have a little twinge in the heart when abandoning the latest opus of FIFA, especially since the last game had managed to do better than its predecessors. Precisely, it has just welcomed a great novelty which marks a turning point in the history of football simulations.
A first for FIFA 23
The Women’s World Cup is taking place right now in Australia and New Zealand. Within the Moroccan selection, which has just been eliminated by the France team, the Muslim player Nouhaila Benzina has evolved throughout the competition with her hijab, making her the first player to wear it during a World Cup. In FIFA 23, Nouhaila Benzina will also wear the veil following the new update that EA Sports has just rolled out. This also marks a great first in the history of the license. On social networks, this addition is very well received by players, delighted to see the American studio comply with the decision of the Moroccan player.
Note that FIFA 23 is the only game in the franchise to include the Women’s World Cup. Players can enjoy this mode at no additional cost and experience the epic journey towards football’s most prestigious trophy alongside the competition which ends on August 20. The highly anticipated EA Sports FC 24, which releases on September 29, will take a further step towards promoting women’s football by integrating players into the Ultimate Team (formerly FUT) mode.
Men and women will be able to join the same team for the very first time, resulting in more fanciful team compositions than ever before. A novelty that has created a great controversy, but the American studio is sticking to its positions and maintains its desire to promote women’s football in EA Sports FC 24. It should be noted, however, that FIFA will not stop definitively: the institution that lends its name in the license counts on a new studio to develop the next games in the series, in particular FIFA 25.
