EA Sports and Nintendo Switch: A Match Made in Gaming Heaven

EA Sports has truly outdone themselves with the Nintendo Switch version of FC 24. In fact, they’ve called it a “huge achievement,” and boy, do they deserve every bit of that praise! Unlike previous years, EA didn’t just slap a new label on an old game and call it a day. No, sir! This time, they’ve graced us with the power of the Frostbite Engine, making FC 24 on the Switch a first for the FIFA franchise.

Switch players, rejoice! You’re no longer stuck with a watered-down version of Ultimate Team. The Nintendo Switch version of FC 24 comes fully equipped with an expanded Ultimate Team mode, on par with what you’d find in other versions of the game. Finally, you can unleash your team-building skills and dominate the field like never before.

Now, let’s address the elephant in the room—EA’s rocky history with the Nintendo Switch. It’s no secret that Switch owners have voiced their frustrations over the years about the lackluster FIFA releases on the console. But fear not, my fellow players! This time, things are different.

GameTopic may have given previous installments lackluster ratings (we’re talking 5/10, 4/10, and even a dismal 2/10!), but FC 24 is here to turn that around. John Shepherd, the VP and Executive Producer at Electronic Arts, proudly shared that FC 24 is finally comparable to its PS4 and Xbox One counterparts.

Sure, there are a few subtle differences due to hardware limitations, but fear not, dear Nintendo fans. FC 24 on the Switch is a shining example of what can happen when developers put in the time and effort. Shepherd called it a “big project” that involved a cross-department effort and heaps of support from EA’s Frostbite team. Now that’s dedication!

And let’s not forget the most exciting bit—FC 24’s release date! Mark your calendars because September 29 is the day you’ll want to clear your schedule, grab those Joy-Con controllers, and dive headfirst into the action. Whether you’re rocking a PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, PC, or of course, your beloved Nintendo Switch, FC 24 is coming for you.

Oh, and one more thing you might want to know. While FC 24 on the Switch won’t be part of the game’s crossplay pools (sorry, folks), you’ll still be able to enjoy cross-platform play on PS5, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and PC versions. So get ready to challenge friends and foes alike, regardless of their chosen gaming platform.

In conclusion, it’s safe to say that EA Sports has redeemed themselves with FC 24 on the Nintendo Switch. They’ve gone above and beyond by bringing the Frostbite Engine and an expanded Ultimate Team experience to the beloved handheld console. So get your game face on, Nintendo fans, and prepare for the ultimate football adventure!
