The FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 update has finally arrived in FIFA 23 alongside the Lead Your Country mode that lets players fill the shoes of any star player from the 32 international teams.
Those looking to truly revel in the glory themselves can also create a custom character and essentially star as themselves in the journey to become a world champion. The classic Kick Off and Tournament modes will be available too, with local co-op and competitive multiplayer available in both.
“In our most expansive EA Sports FIFA Women’s World Cup update ever, we are excited to celebrate the remarkable achievements of the teams competing in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023, and to create an authentic in-game experience for players to lead their country to victory,” said SVP and GM of EA Sports FC Nick Wlodyka.
“Our commitment to women’s football is foundational, and we look forward to evolving and delivering on this promise for our EA SPORTS FC community.”
FIFA 23 is the most successful game in franchise history, which will likely be a pleasing send-off for EA — and perhaps a slightly worrying one for the actual FIFA association — as next year’s entry will be called EA Sports FC.
EA ditched the brand name after FIFA reportedly asked for $1 billion every four years for the name alone, spurring EA CEO Andrew Wilson to comment that all it gets from FIFA is “four letters on the front of the box”.
In our 7/10 review of the base game, IGN said: “FIFA 23’s slick and dramatic virtual football is fitting for the series’ last hurrah under its long-time name, but familiar frustrations abound, and it still greatly undervalues some of its most beloved modes.”
