FIFA 23 is a football video game published by EA Sports. It is the 30th installment in the FIFA series that is developed by EA Sports, the final installment under the FIFA banner, and released worldwide on 30 September 2022 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.[2]

Kylian Mbappé is the cover athlete for the standard and legacy editions. Mbappé shares the cover of the ultimate edition with Sam Kerr.

Listed in Guinness World Records as the best-selling sports video game franchise in the world, the game is the final under the 30-year partnership between EA and FIFA. Future football games by EA are set to be named under the banner of EA Sports FC (alternatively just “EAFC”).[3]

Features Crossplay
FIFA 23 features a degree of crossplay. Crossplay is available in FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) Division Rivals (excluding co-op), FUT Champions, FUT Ultimate Online Draft, FUT Online Friendlies (excluding Co-Op), FUT Play a Friend, Online Friendlies, Online Seasons (excluding Co-Op Seasons) and the Virtual representation of the Bundesliga. However, crossplay is limited to consoles that fall within the same console generation. For example, those on the PlayStation 4 are able to play with and against players on Xbox One, but not the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S and vice versa. Pro Clubs will not support crossplay.[4]

The decision to omit Pro Clubs from crossplay has received criticism from the FIFA community.[5]

Furthermore, the option to delete Ultimate Team data has been removed due to most players not using that option, while an option to rename the club’s name outside of the Objectives screen has been added instead. In previous FIFA titles, players can only use the Delete Club option 4 times, as they are allowed to create a club 5 times.
