Electronic Arts will give more information about the soccer simulator this month, but it has already been leaked that it will be an intergenerational game.

I am actually kinda excited to see this develops, even though I don’t play FIFA: Back when it was FIFA against PES common wisdom said FIFA would always “win” (commercially), since it used every and all licenses for everything. Even when PES started to get specific license constellations, FIFA always came out on top. With EA’s new strategy the FIFA successor looks a whole lot like PES back then. Could be a company killing move imo.

Other than the right to use the FIFA name, and call a tournament the World Cup, does EA lose anything else? I think that's mostly it, right? I'm going to guess most fans won't care.
