Many sports video games are annualised nowadays, so you are pretty much guaranteed to get some top-tier franchises each year. This was also pretty significant as it represents EA’s first football outing following its split with FIFA. However, it was WWE 2K23 that took the crown for Best Sports Game of 2023, so congratulations to the team at Visual Concepts!
