FIFA may have found a developer for a new football series

FOLLOWING EA Sports' very public split from FIFA, the football federation claimed it would continue making games under the FIFA name.

EA Sports has since been rebranded as EA Sports FC with great success, but it has never seen a FIFA game.

FIFA has sold the license for a number of NFT and crypto projects, but we have yet to see a full-fledged football game.

A reliable leaker who has a good track record of correctly predicting upcoming games has said that FIFA is now working with 2K Games.

2K Games is known for its sports games such as NBA 2K24 and WWE 2K24.

Despite 2K's vast library of sports games, it hasn't produced a football game for several years.

EA Sports seems to be the unstoppable force when it comes to this genre, although Konami has done relatively well with eFootball.

EA Sports announced that it would continue to make football games after the end of the FIFA partnership, and would continue to release games on its regular annual schedule.

Although FIFA said it would continue to release games, no game has been announced yet and FIFA seemed keen to miss out on the 24 release.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino said: “The new FIFA game – the FIFA 25, 26, 27 and so on – will always be the best e-game for any girl or boy, we will have news about this very soon.”

However, this announcement was made almost a year ago and no news has emerged.

FIFA reportedly charged EA Sports $1 billion to use the name, and 2K is one of the few companies that can afford this and make sports games.
