Low-Key Xbox Blunder Teases a Pinpoint Release Date for EA’s Last FIFA Game

With September right around the corner, FIFA fans have become impatient for a new release. After all, the game has a massive fan following, as it features some of the biggest soccer fans in the industry.

Every year, EA launches a brand new title to its soccer series, FIFA, giving fans a chance to play using their favorite players. But sometimes, due to the massive hype of the game, internet lurkers slip out crucial information long before its official release. Such has been the case for FIFA 23, as fresh leaks have posted the closed beta accidentally leaking on the Xbox Store.

Fans baffled as Xbox users get a massive sneak peek of FIFA 23!

On July 15, 2022, popular store leaker ‘Aggiornamenti Lumia’ posted about FIFA 23. He uploaded an image of the cover picture, confirming that EA had decided on Kylian Mbappé as their front row star. It is understandable why the franchise has chosen this PSG sensation. After all, the French player is currently running at his peak, competing against legends to earn his place.

It was just a matter of minutes before sources took down Aggiornamenti Lumia’s picture. Sadly, only a handful could have a sneak peek of the upcoming FIFA 23 cover picture in September.

The leaker also mentioned that Xbox accidentally leaked the closed beta on the Xbox store alongside users, confirming the same.

Apart from this, Aggiornamenti separately posted an exclusive Manchester City celebration which was again taken down because of copyrights. EA plans to drop FIFA 23 on September 30, 2022. While this date is just confirmed for Xbox, one can easily predict about the game releasing around the same time for other consoles.

 Kylian Mbappe might be the top player of EA’s latest release

For years together, Ronaldo and Messi have ruled over the FIFA markets as they have been the highest-rated cards. The duo has largely contributed to the sport with their tremendous performance over the years. 

But now it looks like their throne has finally been occupied by someone else, as fresh leaks claim Kylian Mbappe to star as the highest-rated card. The PSG sensation seems to have a 92 overall rating, making him the highest-rated player in the game.
