FIFA 23 offers unrivaled authenticity and immersion, enabling players to take to the pitch with the biggest leagues, clubs and athletes in the world of football.

The advancements to FIFA 23’s HyperMotion2 technology (only available on PS5, 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.

The most true-to-life experience of The World’s Game, FIFA 23 now features women’s club teams with Barclays Women’s Super League and Division 1 Arkema joining the biggest stars and teams, including 19,000+ players across 700+ teams in over 100 stadiums and over 30 leagues. FIFA 23 is the only place you can play the iconic UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Europa Conference League, CONMEBOL Libertadores, CONMEBOL Sudamericana, Premier League, Bundesliga, and LaLiga Santander in the same game.

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.

The world’s biggest football tournament is back. Four years after France lifted the iconic FIFA World Cup trophy, 32 nations are preparing to test themselves on the global stage once again.

Final

The stage was set for two of football’s greatest rivals to meet for the first time in a FIFA World Cup since 1990 and the first time ever in the Final.

Unsurprisingly it was another tense game that was decided by a single goal, but it was the Albiceleste that sent their nation into euphoria as Lionel Messi scored his eighth goal of the tournament to give his country their first FIFA World Cup title since 1986, their third overall, and filled in the last remaining spot in his trophy cabinet.

Golden Boot

Who else? Lionel Messi crowned a stunning tournament with the Golden Boot award, with eight goals in seven games including the decisive strike in the final.

Golden Ball

A captain’s display. Messi also picked up the Golden Ball as the tournament’s best player to round off a memorable FIFA World Cup.

Golden Glove

There was a four-way tie for the Golden Glove between Rui Patrício of Portugal, Alisson of Brazil, Dominik Livaković of Croatia, and Emiliano Martínez of Argentina, but it was Martínez who picked up the award by virtue of progressing the furthest in the tournament.

Team Of The Tournament (4-2-4)
  • Emiliano Martínez - ARG
  • João Cancelo - POR
  • Raphaël Varane - FRA
  • Marquinhos - BRA
  • Marcos Acuña - ARG
  • Leandro Paredes - ARG
