A few days ago, EA officially announced the end of its partnership with FIFA and made public the almost identical EA Sports FC. On the other hand, FIFA also said that it was cooperating and negotiating with other major game publishers Many people speculate that take two, another sports game giant, will take over the follow-up works of FIFA. In response to this question, the boss of the company also answered the media recently
In an interview with IGN, take two CEO Strauss Zelnick said: "we are certainly interested in expanding our opportunities in sports. FIFA has a strong brand and incredible influence, but we have no plans to discuss at present."
When asked the same question at the take two earnings conference call on Monday, Strauss Zelnick said: "we note that (FIFA brands can bid), we tend to think deeply about our business at all times. We are excited about expanding our sports business, and we don't have much to say at present."
It seems that take two has not finally determined whether to win FIFA, but as a player, it obviously wants to play better football games rather than let FIFA, a brand born for decades, be mastered by a company without football game production experience, right?
