What new features have been added by the EA Sports in their new version of the game?
As per their annual tradition, EA Sports will release the official game by July 2024. Coming back after a sabbatical of 10 years, It was initially ceased after the lawsuit filed against the NCAA by Ed O’Bannon’s lawsuit. Initially, the video game did not feature any named players and teams. Although the users were able to edit them and alter the player’s features.
In this version, real-life entities are expected to feature to increase the quality of the game. However, if a player is not comfortable with being featured, he will be swapped by a generic avatar. The player’s names and likeliness can be used legitimately in this version. This has further raised the intrigue of the fans.
