Soccer fans have been yearning for a decent alternative to EAFC24. The game has established a solid monopoly over the soccer video game market. However, it seems like EA could receive a new competitor in the coming months. Cristiano Ronaldo has partnered up with Strikerz Inc.-led UFL, with the game aiming to bring a fresh experience for fans.

Over the years, EA has dominated the soccer video game landscape with its flagship FIFA franchise.

The game has been a big hit, but it seems like the title could receive some serious competition in the coming months.

Game developer Strikerz Inc. will launch its new soccer title UFL in the coming months. The game has already received a massive boost, with Cristiano Ronaldo joining their ranks as a key investor. However, the Al Nassr skipper’s participation isn’t enough to drive fans to the game. The developers are well aware of this fact and are set to bring some interesting changes to the game.

UFL is going to be a completely free-to-play (F2P) game, with the creators labeling it as a skill-based title.
