EAFC – A brief history
One of the oldest game series is still going strong, as EAFC has taken over the legacy of the ultra-popular FIFA games in the past. With the release of EAFC 24, Electronic Arts changed the title from FIFA to EAFC after negotiations fell apart with the international football association FIFA about the usage of their name.
You can read more about the drama that went on behind the scenes in our article about the subject. Long before that, EA and FIFA had created a fantastic collaboration throughout the years with the release of the FIFA series, that went on to be the most popular sports games.
The Genesis of EAFC:
As FIFA emerged as a gaming juggernaut in the 1990s, the inception of Ultimate Team marked a revolutionary leap forward. Introduced in FIFA 09, Ultimate Team allowed players to assemble their dream teams by acquiring virtual player cards through gameplay or trading.
EAFC: A Paradigm Shift:
With FIFA 12, EA ushered in a new era of immersion and engagement. By integrating a persistent online persona, XP progression system, and social connectivity, EA blurred the lines between virtual and real-world football fandom. Players could earn XP by completing in-game challenges, participating in online matches, and interacting with the global FIFA community. This gamification of football culture fostered a sense of camaraderie and competition unlike anything seen before.
With each subsequent installment, the game underwent iterative enhancements, refining its features and expanding its influence. FIFA 14 introduced Seasons, a structured online league system within the game, allowing players to climb the ranks and vie for glory. FIFA 16 introduced FUT Draft, a thrilling mode where players draft their squads and compete in knockout tournaments for lucrative rewards, further enriching the experience.
Community Integration and Rewards in EAFC:
Central to the FIFA series’ success is its emphasis on community integration and rewarding player engagement. From weekly challenges and squad-building competitions to exclusive rewards and bonuses, EAFC continually incentivizes players to immerse themselves in the FUT ecosystem. Whether it’s earning coins, packs, or special player items, every action within the game contributes to the progression of one’s virtual football empire.
The Modern Era of EAFC: FIFA 22 and Beyond:
As we venture into the modern era of FIFA gaming, the new game stands as a testament to innovation and evolution. FIFA 22 introduced HyperMotion technology, elevating gameplay to unprecedented levels of realism and fluidity. In tandem, the game has evolved to encompass cross-platform progression, enhanced customization options, and a myriad of social features, ensuring that players remain at the forefront of the football revolution.
From FIFA to EAFC:
As already mentioned at the beginning of this article, Electronic Arts switched the popular FIFA name out with EAFC after the naming rights for FIFA was rumored to be doubling in price. The switch to the new name seems to have gone smoothly for EA, who saw a rise of 25 percent in pre-release sales for EAFC 24 compared to FIFA23. In the new game, Evolutions were introduced. A new game feature that allows users to upgrade their own favorite players.
The new concept from EA has been widely approved and has sparked a new revolution in the game, where teams and meta players are now very much different than what they used to be. EA added the opportunity to spend points in order to buy the evolutions and thereby opened up a new and more transparent way to upgrade your team instead of buying packs.
