With cross-platform play after it emerged you can't use your Epic account on the Nintendo Switch version of Fortnite if you've used it on the PlayStation 4 version, many within the FIFA community have also wondered whether the feature might come to the world's biggest sports video game.
Currently, FIFA has no cross-platform play at all. Unlike, say, Rocket League, which lets PC players match with other players across PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch (the PS4 can't be matched up with Xbox One nor Switch), FIFA does not let players on different platforms play together.
FIFA does not let you use one account across multiple platforms, either (FIFA players have long called for the ability to use the same account for a persistent FIFA Ultimate Team experience across console and PC). And the online FUT marketplace is platform specific, too, which limits market activity.

Electronic Arts took a ton of flak last winter for how Star Wars Battlefront II handled loot boxes, but somehow it's always seemed to avoid the same sort of push-back when it came to its EA Sports titles and Ultimate Team modes. It sounds like the publisher is trying to get ahead of the story this ...]

Star Wars Battlefront II was the game which stirred the most vociferous action against loot boxes, but it wasn’t the first EA game to make use of the random blind purchase model. EA Sports titles - FIFA in particular - have offered similar purchases for years as part of the wildly popular Ultimate Team mode. They aren’t going away, but EA does plan a significant change for them starting this year.
Starting with this year’s EA Sports titles, EA will now disclose the odds for Ultimate Team packs. That change will affect FIFA 19 and Madden NFL 19 most obviously, and could indicate that EA plans to move toward more transparency for this monetization scheme across any future titles - though don’t expect them to drop the loot box model entirely.
There's plenty of sport to be had in the .
“Our model is sustainable,” EA Sports vice president and COO Daryl Holt tells . Holt says that the controversy over Battlefront II has “certainly changed us - in the way it always does in terms of anything you hear from a player or from the industry - in how we all react and adapt to it.”
The disclosure of pack odds for sports titles is one such change coming as a result of that feedback, and Holt says it’s an indication of “how we communicate and we deal with live service models and how we test things and implement feedback across all of EA.”

FIFA 19 will include pack odds disclosures, EA has confirmed to Eurogamer.
Speaking to our reporter Robert Purchese at the Gamelab conference in Spain, EA Sports vice president and COO Daryl Holt said FIFA Ultimate Team Packs will show odds from FIFA 19 on.
Here's what Holt told us:

EA UFC 3 improves on most of its predecessor's mistakes, but is it the G.O.A.T?

EA Sports has done well maintaining its current standing as the premier and only simulation hockey experience, but there's some need to push the envelope.
