FIFA 23 Announced: HyperMotion 2, Crossplay and More on the Pitch – News

Unsurprisingly, Electronic Arts has come along FIFA 23 announced the next installment in its football series, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. This will be the final installment in the series to feature FIFA branding. The reason for this is relatively simple: The Fédération Internationale de Football Association had significantly increased the license fees for the use of the name. From 2023 it will be the series EA Sports FC mean.

Back to FIFA 23: It will be released on September 30th on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Google Stadia. If you grab the Ultimate Edition, you can get started on September 27, 2022. The developers promise crossplay functionality between devices of the same generation, meaning: PS4 and Xbox One can play with each other, as can PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Stadia. Not only friendlies, but also 1-on-1 games as well as FUT and online seasons are possible.

This is not the only point where the old systems are excluded. HyperMotion 2 will not be available on Lastgen consoles. The movement system should offer even more realistic animations and give you the feeling of really watching a football game. Appropriately, FIFA 23 has augmented reality replays of broadcasts, whatever that’s supposed to mean.

According to EA, HyperMotion 2 should be particularly noticeable in women’s football. The Women’s League is now included in the game at club level. So you have even more licenses to choose from. Overall, the developers promise over 19,000 players, more than 700 teams, 100 stadiums and more than 30 leagues.

There should be a lot of game modes. Of course, FIFA Ultimate Team, which is now called FUT Moments, should not be missing. There is talk of a “reworked chemistry system”, which should allow you to customize your squads even better. You can also take part in the 2022 Men’s World Cup in Qatar and the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. In the training center you should improve or build up your skills. And of course there’s Pro Clubs, Volta Football and Career Mode.
