Is it? They're still able to have licenses with clubs, leagues, national teams and confederations; this really just means they won't be able to have the World Cup in the game once every four years.

EA is still very involved; it's FIFA who's not

Oh I know they could change the name of the series to EA Maradona and shelve it next to Madden and totally confuse people into buying both games.

So FIFA wanted to much money I imagine. This is one if not their biggest money maker.

So they only cant use the word FIFA? They still have access to the names like Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga and all the player names etc?

Then it seems like the only thing thats changing is the title which means nothing else will change. It will be the same reskin every year.

I was hoping they'd lose the official names of the leagues and competitions and the licences to use the players like-ness and names.

When they dont reach a deal like that, the odds are very high that they also lose the rights to team names, player names and likeness. That is usually how it goes. I havent fully read into this yet though

EDIT: Nevermind. That is so strange. Ive never seen anything like this before. It is only a name change after all

Soccer isn't like American sports where there's just one governing body that matters. Lacking a deal with FIFA doesn't prevent EA from having the licenses to the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, MLS, etc.

They're gonna have to make deals with every club to maintain the status quo. You might lose a team or an entire league if they think the league isn't worth the money.

IIRC they already do that as they need to as FIFA doesn't have the rights to the players.

You could always play pes.

I think all this means is ea cant use fifa sponsored events in their games. So no world cup, no confederation cup, arab cup etc.

Remember when FIFA 20 was LITERALLY the same game as FIFA 19, to the point where even the .exe said FIFA19.exe?

lol
