    They litterally did 4 years of re-releasing the exact same FIFA on Switch with only a roster update, just slapping a “legacy edition” on them for good measure. If it’s the same game, by comparison, making it a DLC of the previous edition is slightly more honest.

    Annual sports game editions are just a wet dream a marketing genius had back in the 90s. A shame that it must still work on a significant part of their audience.

      Initially it made a lot of sense though. The differences between each fifa version between the first one and 2003 were massive with each iteration. But as the graphics got better and better and the gameplay was more or less settled, it became less sensible to have a new edition each year. After fifa 2003 there were noticeably less differences between the iterations.
