The FIFA community has been calling for an online Career Mode for several years now but many had almost given up hope before hearing the news that EA Sports FC would be taking over the franchise in 2023.
It now seems the community's prayers have finally been answered, with an online Career Mode confirmed for the first-ever EA Sports FC title.
So, take a look at what Online Career Mode is actually all about below.
Confirmed game modes
Online Career Mode isn't the only mode to be unofficially confirmed.
According to @UTSources on Twitter, you can expect to see the following game modes feature in EA Sports FC:
- Ultimate Team
- Kick Off
- Online Seasons
- Pro Clubs
Online Career Mode explained
We are in unprecedented times, so we can only speculate on how an online Career Mode could potentially work in EA Sports FC at this moment.
Some fans have said they would love to see EA integrate the game mode as a PvP-style game mode where various teams in a league are controlled and managed by other random players.
However, this seems a bit of a stretch. We believe there's a greater possibility we see a more social mode introduced, allowing you and your friends to play together in a private league.
This would involve inviting your friends to a particular league allowing each of them to occupy one club within the competition.
Whether you will be able to use custom clubs in Online Career Mode remains to be seen.
Some fans of the beloved mode think the introduction of an online version could prove disastrous for the fan-favourite sim.
