EA has finally revealed EA Sports FC 24, which is the upcoming replacement for FIFA, launching after FIFA 23.
Below, we'll run you through all of the information we have on EA Sports FC, including when we're going to hear more about it, when it will release, and what it actually is. Considering EA has revealed the game and new series so early, we expect news to be drip fed to us over the next couple of months and we'll be sure to keep across all of the latest leaks, news, and rumours.
In the meantime, check out what we know about FIFA 23 and what you get from every pack in this year's game. Maybe EA will completely change how packs and points work in their new series.
EA Sports FC 24 news
Today is the day! The EA Sports FC reveal takes place and will shed some more light on what EA has planned for its footballing franchise.
Hopefully, we hear some more about Ultimate Team.
According to a report from French website Dealabs, EA Sports FC will reportedly release on September 29, 2023.
This means the start of the beta is right around the corner which is hugely exciting for football fans around the world.
It's not exactly gameplay news, but EA has announced that EA Sports FC will be sponsoring the Spanish La Liga from the 2023-24 season.
"The partnership will officially start in the 2023/2024 season between EA Sports FC and LaLiga and will include title naming rights for all LaLiga competitions, plus a complete rebrand of LaLiga with EA Sports including all logos and many more details below."
While we haven't heard anything more about EA Sports FC, and likely won't until next year, FIFA 23 hype is continuing to build.
The expectation is that the new game will be revealed sometime very soon, ahead of pre orders going live in August 2022.
As soon as you can actually buy the new game, we'll be sure to update you.
Alongside the official announcement, FIFA released its own to say that it plans to release its own game once the agreement with EA Sports comes to an end. It said:
"The FIFA name is the only global, original title. FIFA 23, FIFA 24, FIFA 25 and FIFA 26, and so on - the constant is the FIFA name and it will remain forever and remain THE BEST.
What shape FIFA's own game will take, who will develop it, or how similar it'll be to EA Sports' game, no one really knows, but it'll be interesting to see how much competition it poses to EA Sports FC.
What Is EA Sports FC 24?
It has been rumoured for a while, but EA Sports FC will be EA's new football game series, replacing FIFA from 2023 onwards.
The game publisher has ended its partnership with FIFA, therefore ending the use of the governing body's name in the series. We expect it to be pretty similar to the FIFA formula we know and love already, but the iconic FIFA name won't be there.

As for when we can actually expect to play EA Sports FC, we've got a while to wait yet.
However, recent reports claim the EA Sports FC release date will be September 29, 2023. Of course, this is just a rumour and it's important to take it with a pinch of salt until EA reveals more information in the coming weeks.
Once the official EA Sports FC release date arrives, we'll update the guide with everything you need to know.
EA Sports FC 24 platforms
The other thing that is still up in the air is what platforms EA Sports FC will come to.
While the install bases of last-gen consoles is still massive, EA may see the release of EA Sports FC as a new era, allowing it to focus on PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC only.
I'm sure we'll hear more about that when the full reveal comes in July 2023. And as we prepare to say goodbye to the FIFA we've known for decades, we've decided upon the best FIFA songs of all time. See if you agree.
