EA Sports FC Mobile continues to impress, building momentum akin to its console counterpart. Despite losing the FIFA license, EA swiftly formed new partnerships, most notably allowing users to stream select Major League Soccer (MLS) matches directly within the app.
Thanks to collaborations with EA, the MLS, and Apple TV+, fans can enjoy live simulcasts of upcoming fixtures via the in-game FCM TV Portal. A dedicated Football Centre provides real-time updates on global football happenings. Matches such as LA Galaxy vs. New York Red Bulls (May 10th) or Atlanta United FC vs. Philadelphia Union (May 17th) are just a few highlights. As an added incentive, viewers earn in-game currency simply for tuning in—a clever strategy to engage players.
This initiative underscores EA's ambition to diversify post-FIFA. By rewarding watchers and integrating real-world games into gameplay, the company fosters deeper user engagement. While the final two MLS matches of this partnership won’t arrive until September, early results suggest it could be a worthwhile wait.
