As usual, Electronic Arts treats the PC as the fifth wheel of the carriage and it will be necessary to wait at least a year to have a version next gen on Windows.
Taking advantage of the weekend, Electronic Arts presented the first trailer for FIFA 22, its inevitable football simulation. At the same time, he also revealed some information in a press release which has the advantage of clarifying things. We learned, for example, that the release of the game is set for October 1 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Stadia and Switch through a Legacy Edition.
