How much money does EA Sports make from FIFA & Ultimate Team?


Every year, millions of video game fans each year buy and play FIFA and spend even more money on in-game add-ons through Ultimate Team
FIFA is the biggest football game on the planet and is one of the most popular video games of any genre on all consoles as well as on PC.
As a result, it makes billions of dollars each year for publisher Electronic Arts aka EA with much of that income derived from the FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) game mode.
How much money does EA make each year from FIFA?
Well In its annual report, EA confirmed that it made $1.6 billion (£1.1bn) from game sales from April 2020 to March 2021.
That amount was dwarfed by their "Live Services and Other" income which amounted to $4bn over the same 12 months. That's really big amount. By the way The Live Services and Other category includes income from additional in-game add-ons such as Ultimate Team, which is the most popular game mode in FIFA.
The annual report does not give exact figures for each video game, but confirms in the statement that "FIFA 21 has more than 25 million console/PC players" while "FIFA Ultimate Team players grew 16% year-over-year and FUT matches were up 180%."
