Players will also be able to experience the pinnacle of both men’s and women’s international football in FIFA 23 with the men’s FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 and FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023 as post-launch updates at no additional cost.
Cross-play features will also connect and engage football fans like never before and will be available across multiple online game modes in FIFA 23.
PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S Stadia, and PC versions of FIFA 23 will be cross-play compatible. PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of FIFA 23 will be cross-play compatible with one another.

The advancements to FIFA 23’s HyperMotion2 technology (only available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Stadia) and physics system have unlocked an array of new features making the gameplay experience feel more immersive than ever.
Team and player movement across the pitch is more responsive, smart and authentic, whether jockeying against a defender or claiming an aerial ball against an attacker as a keeper.
Players can also look forward to a new intelligent dribbling system, a more natural and fluid transition to shooting, all-new acceleration mechanics, enhanced player awareness and much more.
With the debut of women’s club teams, all-new animations informed by the movement of real-life female players have been added to FIFA 23.
“We have pushed the boundaries of realism in EA SPORTS FIFA 23 through HyperMotion2, using state-of-the-art technology to capture professional men’s and women’s teams in full-intensity matches that translate millions of data points into new animations in real-time,” said Nick Wlodyka, SVP & GM, EA SPORTS FC.
“The result is the most natural and realistic motion in football gaming, and when combined with the inclusion of both men’s and women’s World Cups, women’s club football, and cross-play features, will immerse players and football fans around the world for years to come.”
EA SPORTS FIFA 23 features a variety of mode advancements and innovations across Career Mode, Pro Clubs, VOLTA FOOTBALL, FIFA 23 Ultimate Team and more.
The new Training Center coaching system will also give new and less experienced players the ability to easily learn the fundamentals of gameplay and hone their skills before jumping into a match.
