Despite loads of players still referring to the FC games as 'FIFA', football 's international governing body has signed with EA Sports ' biggest rival for its esports series. FIFA has reached an agreement with Konami and eFootball as the game the FIFAe World Cup will be played on. Konami made the Pro Evolution Soccer series which really rivalled EA Sports' FIFA games through the 2000s. Pro Evolution Soccer kept going until 2020 when it was eventually rebranded as eFootball and became a free-to-play game. Although UFL is on the horizon to hopefully shake things up in the world of football games, eFootball is the only other competition EA Sports FC really has at present - and even then it's safe to say it's not stiff competition either. EA has cornered a huge part of the market with a lot of exclusive licensing agreements with the majority of the top European leagues which left Konami's offering picking up what was left.
