For the FIFA video game series Electronic Arts consider a new name. With EA Sports FC you may even have already found one.
The reason for the possible change of the name seems to be the agreement with the FIFA. Currently, one is in new negotiations because the current contract for football licenses expires at the end of 2022. The FIFA allegedly wants up to a billion dollars in four years.
However, if you can not agree in the future or only partially, the FIFA association has no problem to look for new partnerships.
In an official communication of the World Football Association, it is said that in the future, not only a party should control the rights. It is also in contact with developers, which no longer only meant Electronic Arts.
The FIFA believes in your future in gaming and e-sport for football and is convinced that not only one party alone is allowed to control all rights.
The FIFA in turn is in contact with various industry representatives, including analysts, developers and investors to develop a long-term strategy for the gaming, e-sports and interactive entertainment sector.
The future will show how licenses and names of FIFA may be used in future video games. Electronic Arts may also agree with the FIFA.
