The announcement follows a licensing deal between Mythical Games and Adidas, giving the German brand a presence within the virtual game. The move aims to capitalize on FIFA’s global reach and Adidas’ influence in football culture.

FIFA Rivals Looks to Outperform NFL Rivals

FIFA Rivals builds on the formula of NFL Rivals, Mythical’s previous project based on non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the trading of digital collectibles. While that title didn’t achieve viral success, the company reported $650 million in completed transactions across its various games and a user base of over 7 million. With this new launch, the studio hopes to tap into football’s global fanbase and the power of established brands to reach a wider audience.

The company aims to make this system a core part of its business model, setting itself apart from traditional games by offering complete and real control over in-game assets.

Mythical Games co-founder and CEO John Linden noted that bringing Adidas into the game offers players a direct cultural connection and the chance to digitally represent an iconic brand on and off the pitch. This collaboration highlights how established brands can enter new digital environments in innovative ways, beyond conventional promotional content.
