Several months ago, FIFA officially ended its partnership with game publisher giant Electronic Arts after 3 decades of cooperation, after which the publisher decided to rebrand the famous football game we all know to EA Sports FC from next year, and to officially become an alternative to FIFA 24.

Publisher EA has previously confirmed that despite the loss of the FIFA brand, its football game will not change much and thanks to the more than 300 official licenses owned by the publisher, the same great experiences, leagues, modes, clubs and athletes will be included in EA Sports FC.

However, the question here is whether EA's next game can maintain its popularity, the vast experience it enjoys despite the rebranding and the loss of several licenses and, more importantly, how well will the next three football titles be able to compete in the video game market and take its place?

Before answering these questions, let's first take a look at the most important football headlines that are expected to be released later this year, and they are as follows.

1. FIFA24 Developed by FIFA
2. UFL Developed by Strikerz Inc
3. GOALS From Swedish development studio GOALS Games
4. eFootball 2024 Published and developed by Konami

FIFA24

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has announced that the next FIFA series, expected to be FIFA 24, will set a new standard for football gaming. infantino During his victory speech following his re-election as FIFA president, he announced that the federation would officially launch a competing video game to EA Sports FC.

Although he confirmed once again their work on a football game, the FIFA president did not indicate when exactly the first FIFA game would be released, whether in 2024 or 2025, and what intrigues us as players is the great confidence of the Federation in the success of its address, despite the lack of experience and practice in this field.

We still don't know what or the name of the developer that may have hired FIFA to work on the next football game, despite the great influence of the International Federation and its monopoly on many licenses, but they are considered factors that are not enough alone to be able to carry a legacy of the FIFA game that we have known for many years. We also don't know if EA Sports FC can compete.

UFL

We remember very well the sudden announcement of the new football game called United Football League, or as you know it, UFL, It is developed by Strikerz Inc studio, which as developer previously confirmed that 200 people around the world are working on developing it.

The game was first announced during the Gamescom event last year, where we got our first look at a bold ball game that football fans have been eagerly awaiting, to compete with the FIFA or eFootball series – PES 2022, which is now in the alpha stage.

One of the most exciting things about this game is that it is a free-to-play game and has hired the world's most famous football stars to scan and capture movements, such as Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, who has appeared in its adverts to talk about his upcoming partnership with the UFL football team.

The game developer has confirmed that the game will provide a realistic experience in terms of player shapes and movement system as it was designed in cooperation with some football stars including Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo, Liverpool star Firmino and Belgian Lukaku, as well as Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne.

GOALS

Many gamers may not have heard of this game, but don’t worry, we haven’t heard much about it either other than it being announced several months ago, but Swedish game developer GOALS has confirmed that it is a AAA football game “a game with a huge development budget” dedicated to online team play, esports across the globe.

eFootball 2024

The efootball game is currently updated to be efootball 2023, and it is obvious that you will get an update in 2024 later this year as the game receives updates periodically.

Efootball suffered greatly when it was first launched on several levels, including the major technical errors it suffered from which made it the target of widespread ridicule among players and critics alike, as this affected its ratings at the time.

Furthermore, the radical change made by Konami was unexpected, as it moved the game from the well-known PES brand several years ago to a completely new brand, as we now know it as efootball. With its reference to a free-to-play live service game that contains a microtransactional element.

Recently, the game has improved significantly in many aspects, both in terms of graphics, gameplay and artificial intelligence of the players, in addition to fixing most of the bugs that the game suffered from at the beginning, which made things almost stable for this title. which began to gain enormous popularity. around the world.

The game introduced several new features, including a player ranking system and improvements to the multiplayer system. Players can also play on mobile devices, PC, and various home gaming consoles without any issues.

The game is expected to continue its good performance after the surprising numbers that the developer shared with us, as efootball 2023 managed to reach almost 600 million downloads across multiple platforms.

In any case, it's still too early to talk about the strongest competitor that could emerge over the next year, as we haven't yet seen what EA Sports FC has in store for us. Furthermore, we haven't received any official details about the upcoming FIFA 24 title, and with the launch of other competing games approaching, the competition in the football game is fiercer than ever.
