Fans of Ted Lasso and the FIFA games will love this update from EA Sports. The developer confirmed that AFC Richmond and its beloved Coach Lasso would be playable characters in FIFA 23. This final installment in the series is coming out on September 30. We should expect characters like Roy Kent, Jamie Tartt, Sam Obisanya, and Dani Rojas.
According to EA, players can use different game modes to become Ted Lasso or AFC Richmond, including Career Mode, Kickoff, Online Seasons, and Online Friendlies. The release will include customizable kits for the fictional football club and tifos (a.k.a. the card and/or banner displays in the stands). Yes, it'll also feature the world-famous Nelson Stadium. You can opt to have Ted Lasso head AFC Richmond or a different team in FIFA. You can also select a different coach for the Greyhounds or make your manager or player from scratch to join the team.
