EA Sports today revealed the logo for its upcoming football game EA Sports FC, which is the successor to the FIFA franchise.
Official: EA Sports FIFA to Be Renamed EA Sports FC
EA Sports were unable to reach an agreement with FIFA to extend their long-standing partnership
The 30-year partnership with FIFA comes to an end in 2023. The decision to rename the game to EA Sports FC was made last year after EA Sports were unable to reach an agreement with the football governing body to extend their long-standing partnership.

The new EA Sports FC logo is inspired by triangles, which have been a part of EA Sports football for the past 30 years.
The new EA Sports FC identity includes three versions of the logo, all inspired by the triangle, to ensure the new brand can be reflected across every conceivable touchpoint. This includes a primary logo, a two-letter product prefix and an authenticity mark to be shared with a broad range of EA SPORTS FC partners.
