FIFA 17: is there a third division?
Numerous FIFA fans have been waiting for the third division in virtual soccer simulation for years. But as so often, they will be disappointed again this time.
Again no 3rd Bundesliga in FIFA 17
- FIFA keeps adding new leagues to its repertoire. The Japanese J1 League was recently confirmed. However, fans have been waiting for the 3rd Bundesliga for years.
- Even if the demand in Germany is high, interest in the 3rd Bundesliga remains very small in the rest of the world. Therefore, the interest among the publishers is not very high. Because every additional league not only costs the developer, but also money.
- Unlike the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga, the rights for the 3rd Bundesliga are not with the DFL, but with the DFB. Buying the third Bundesliga for EA would not be that easy.
- For these reasons, there will be no 3rd Bundesliga in FIFA 17. However, an EA producer had already commented on the third division and had not excluded it directly. This wish may still be fulfilled in FIFA 18.
In the next practical tip, we will show you all the information and rumors about the licenses of FIFA 17.
