After talking about all the different licensing deals and partnerships, the developers have with some of the biggest leagues, teams, and athletes in the world; Weber finally spilled the news for all the fans. He said, “As we look ahead, we’re also exploring the idea of renaming our global EA SPORTS football games. This means we’re reviewing our naming rights agreement with FIFA, which is separate from all our other official partnerships and licenses across the football world.” 

The 28 editions since the release of the first title, FIFA 94 in 1993, have all been named after the organization. If EA was to change the name now, it would have to be something that goes well with the fans.

Additionally, Weber also revealed the staggering numbers for FIFA 22 since its launch; thanking fans for their warmhearted welcome and acceptance of the latest title in one of EA’s largest franchises. Since the launch six days ago, the game has already had 9.1 million players try it out; playing over 460 million matches overall.

This massive decision from the devs has stirred up a lot of talks on social media platforms. What do you think should be the new name?
