In 1993, EA Sports released FIFA International Soccer, on the Sega Mega Drive. The matches unfolded on a fuzz of green pixels, as though the players were bounding over squares of baize. The teams were all national, no clubs, and the licence did not yet extend to names, kits, or stadiums. But, despite the game nearly being branded "Team USA Soccer" in North America, the name stuck. Just. In an interview with MCV in 2014, Neil Thewarapperuma, the head of marketing at EA Sports in the nineties, put it delicately: "EA didn't give a shit about FIFA." Thirty years on, with the release of EA Sports FC 24, the developer has parted ways with the organisation that lent the series its licensed heft. Last year, FIFA president Gianni Infantino gave his humble appraisal of the split: "The constant is the FIFA name and it will remain forever and remain THE BEST." Thus it's now for EA Sports to prove that the constant is not in the name. It's in the game.
