EA Sports FC Mobile continues to evolve, mirroring the success of its console counterpart. Despite parting ways with the FIFA license, EA has adeptly formed new partnerships, notably with Major League Soccer (MLS) and Apple TV+. This collaboration allows fans to watch live simulcasts of select MLS matches directly within the EA Sports FC Mobile app through the in-game FCM TV Portal. Alongside the live streams, a companion Football Centre keeps fans updated on global football events.
The MLS, though not as globally recognized as FIFA, offers exciting matches for football enthusiasts. Highlights include the LA Galaxy versus New York Red Bulls on May 10th, and Atlanta United FC facing Philadelphia Union on May 17th. What's more, viewers are rewarded with in-game currency simply for tuning in!
Back of the netThis strategic partnership underscores EA's eagerness to expand its horizons beyond FIFA. Offering live MLS matches and incentivizing viewers with in-game currency is a brilliant way to engage the community. The Football Centre further enhances the experience by allowing players to recreate real-world matches within the game.
While the final two MLS matches of this partnership won't be available until September, the initial offerings promise an enjoyable viewing experience, making the wait potentially worthwhile.
