In terms of potential rewards for winning or significantly progressing through these tournaments, the possibilities are rich. Players could receive kits, badges, stadium customizers, or even special cards for FC 25 Coins Ultimate Team that are thematically matching to the platform of their choice. Communal milestone challenges for each console playerbase could provide added incentive to engage and progress in these tournaments.

Of all the game modes, none quite lend themselves as well to crossplay capabilities within FC than Pro Clubs. A game mode that, at full capacity, sees 11 players on each team controlling a single position, Pro Clubs has always been a mode that breeds competition via the organization that is required, as well as the sheer amount of people that can be involved in a single match.

Should crossplay capability be introduced in the upcoming FC 25. it would be likely that Pro Clubs could increase dramatically in substance and relevance, despite already being one of the most popular aspects of the online FC formula and its gameplay. The most obvious addition that crossplay could provide to Pro Clubs is the introduction of crossplay-specific leagues, in which one platform's playerbase are pitted against another. Statistics of win percentages and other gameplay factors for each console could be openly displayed and accessed, giving tangible and empirical evidence as to which platform's playerbase is performing the most consistently.

This necessity of good performances and competition, whilst helping settle age-old questions of which playerbase is the most skilled, could be one of the many ways crossplay could make the next FC title incredible. As the year continues with FC 25. uncertainty is in the air regarding the brand of EA Sports' popular soccer franchise. This stems from reports back in October after a trademark claim was established and then again in February when an EA executive claimed the FC name is hurting the franchise.

While the company rolled out FC Coins for sale under the familiar title name, it's now become a question of not if, but when EA will go forward with the new franchise title after the revealing of a trademark claim over the name "EA Sports FC."
