Licenses
On May 10, 2022, EA Sports and FIFA announced that their agreement to work together would end on December 31, 2022. They had been working together for a long time. But they decided to extend the agreement for one more year to release FIFA 23, the latest version of the football video game. Starting in 2023, EA Sports will change the name of their football video game franchise from FIFA to EA Sports FC. However, even with the new name, the game will still have permission to use the names and likenesses of more than 19,000 players, over 700 teams, more than 100 stadiums, and more than 30 leagues. They will also add new licenses for Spain's Liga F and Germany's Frauen-Bundesliga. Meanwhile, FIFA has plans to collaborate with a different video game company. They want to create a game with the FIFA name that they believe will be the only authentic one. In EA Sports FC 24, players will also get to experience the licensed Ballon d'Or for the first time in the game's history.
