FIFA 22 is coming to EA Play and Xbox Game Pass on June 23rd.

Now, EA has confirmed that EA Sports FIFA 22 will finally be joining the EA Play lineup along with other great deals from the publisher. The service is also available with Xbox Game Pass, which means Game Pass subscribers will also get access to FIFA 22 at no additional cost.

The game will be available as a free download via EA play starting June 23rd. It is the latest installment in the popular football game franchise and continues to be one of the publisher’s most successful games.

The next game in the series is likely to be unveiled soon, with a release likely scheduled for September. Usually games come out in September, which means that the game is just around the corner.

EA usually added games from the FIFA franchise to EA Play shortly before the launch of a new game in the series. FIFA 21 was added to the service around the same time last year, giving the game an extra boost in popularity and players right before the new game’s launch.

This most likely worked well for the publisher as it means the game is available to an even wider audience. This franchise has been a mainstay of the gaming industry for some time now and has reached a rather radical point in its development.

It was recently announced that in the future, after FIFA23, the franchise will no longer use the official “FIFA”trademark as EA and the international football governing body have decided not to renew their licensing agreement. This means that the next game in the series will be the last to be called “EA Sports FIFA”.

From July 2023, the franchise will be known as EA Sports FC, EA has confirmed.
