About this game
FIFA 23 Legacy Edition puts international-league teams into soccer matches where you can assign on-field strategies. Kick Off offers offline games against friends or CPU opponents, and Skill Games introduce the basic match controls. Women's club teams are among this edition's additions, alongside a refreshed broadcast overlay. For an ongoing progression structure, Player Career follows a footballer's development, while Manager Career places club management and tactics in your hands. These options build on FIFA 22 Legacy Edition's gameplay features and modes, with no new development or significant enhancements to that foundation. EA has retired this edition's online services, so online-dependent play, including Ultimate Team, is no longer available. Offline modes do not require an EA account.
Collected in series
FIFA is EA SPORTS’ football series built around passing moves, defensive decisions and the excitement of scoring. Across its history, careers, Ultimate Team and women’s football broadened the experience beyond individual matches.

Nintendo SwitchAI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
Best considered for offline matches and career play if the established Legacy gameplay meets your needs.
Skill Games and offline Kick Off provide a route from learning controls to playing matches, while the two career roles offer different ongoing interests. Its unchanged gameplay foundation limits the appeal for players seeking a substantial revision of the previous Switch edition.
Strengths
- Practice activities and offline matches support players who want to learn before committing to a career.
- Player and manager careers offer a choice between developing a footballer and directing a club.
Weaknesses
- Returning FIFA 22 Legacy Edition players seeking substantially new gameplay may find little reason to switch.
Who it is for: Players interested in offline football, individual-player development or club-management decisions.
Play notes: Online services have ended; Ultimate Team's online requirement prevents treating it as an available mode.
