Is World Cup Mode Still in FIFA?
The 2022 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner, and with it, the excitement of the game’s biggest event is spreading across the globe. While playing out World Cup dreams and fantasies on FIFA is exhilarating, fans are increasingly curious about the availability of World Cup mode in recent FIFA titles.
Good News for Football Enthusiasts: World Cup Mode is Back in FIFA 23!
Luckily, for football enthusiasts around the world, EA Sports has confirmed that the FIFA World Cup 2022 and the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 will be available as post-release content updates in FIFA 23! This means that players won’t have to wait much longer to dive into these exciting tournaments. The details of the mode are being kept under wraps for now, but it’s definitely a reason to be pumped.
Breaking News: Which Players Get Drafted Early? The FIFA Draft is another popular feature often associated with World Cup Mode. As a result of the 2018 FUT Champions update, high-rated players (90 or higher) become available by drafting, rather than acquiring them through Ultimate Team Pack. We may see such a mechanism integrated into this year’s tournament.
Here’s a list of supported content elements with information:|

| FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 | FIFA 23 | Post-Release Content Update |

FIFA 18, 20, and 21 Editions: Where’s World Cup Mode?
Since we’ve clarified the FIFA 23 news, let’s take a look at past FIFA iterations. For the curious (or nostalgic) among you, FIFA World Cup Mode wasn’t explicitly included in FIFA 20 and FIFA 21, but there’s a subtle connection:
- FIFA 20: While it didn’t have a separate World Cup mode, you could earn rewards, and even receive a free DLC pack inspired by the event.
- FIFA 21: A FIFA Global Series was added, similar to the ones seen for other tournaments and events; however, a dedicated FIFA World Cup Mode was nonexistent.
On the other hand, FIFA World Cup 2021 was included as a multiplayer mode in FIFA 18. Despite the different nomenclature, this represents the inclusion of a standalone World Cup mode in FIFA 18.
