In 2022, the cult video game saga of FIFA turned off for a long nap of indefinite duration. In question, the end of its historic agreement with Electronic Arts, which preferred independence for economic and creative reasons: since then the developer and publisher has for its part offered the EA Sports FC while FIFA has announced that it wants to continue making video games. Or rather, to order video games.
We wondered who the sports federation would turn to, knowing that Konami’s discreet eFootball has since been chosen as the official game of the FIFA World Cup: we already know a little more today since the game FIFA Rivals has just been revealed, the development of which is entrusted to Mythical Games. Please note, we are not talking here about a “traditional” football game, but about a free title planned for iOS and Android where it will be a question of creating and managing your own clubs while managing your players and your policies or your strategies. To finance itself, an in-game transaction system supported by the Mythos blockchain from Mythical Games.
Based in Seattle in the United States, Mythical Games is a development studio that positions itself “at the crossroads between video games and the economy”. Via its eponymous blockchain, the firm intends to offer developers a solution to seamlessly integrate a secondary economy: for the moment we owe the racing game to Mythical Nitro Nation Word Tour but also and above all NFL Rivalsthe principle of which will be similar to that of FIFA Rivals.
FIFA Rivals is planned for iOS and Android during the summer of 2025. It is not said that this is the only new FIFA video game, rumors in the corridor attest to a return of the saga on home consoles and even talks with 2K Games to take care of it, without us knowing what really could have been decided. Patience.
