The game will also feature women’s club teams for the first time with the inclusion of the Barclays Women’s Super League and Division 1 Arkema at launch, extending its position as the world’s most authentic football experience.

Back in May 2022, EA confirmed that FIFA 23 will be the last FIFA game developed and published by them after almost three decades. The first ever EA FIFA game was FIFA International Soccer for the Sega Mega Drive and Genesis in 1993. Starting from 2024, EA will replace the FIFA franchise with EA Sports FC, but more details on that will only be shared in July 2023.
