Pre-ordering on Steam also gets you in early but that doesn’t stop pre-ordering from being silly.This FAQalso mentions that cross-play between PC and consoles is a “long-term goal”, and that they’re “continuing to investigate its integration”.I will admit that it does lookpretty pretty.In other football news, English Premier League playersrecently competed in a Fifa 20 tournamentbecause the Covid meant they couldn’t do it in real life. It’s part of a straight-up fascinating phenomenon where sportsfolk have had toadapt to virtual recreations of their livelihoods.I enjoyed messing around with one of the Fifas from about a decade ago, but I have next to no idea about what state the series is in nowadays.
