Another year, another FIFA, though FIFA 23 will mark the last FIFA as we know it. EA’s grip on the license will finally loosen, and they’ll go on to release a newly branded football series next year, though it’s not clear what form that will take just yet. Before EA Sports FC in 2023 though, we have FIFA 23 to look forward to, including all of the different editions and bonuses you can get your hands on. If you’re thinking of buying FIFA 23 this year, here’s everything you need to know.
