I mean, I think it's EA who wants it. That's the kind of stuff that EA asks for from console manufacturers.

That is true. Square shot their own IP in the foot with Rise of the Tomb Raider. It would just take quite a bit to take on that risk imo. Especially with such a risk averse series and business model with FIFA.

I mean, it's definitely not as risky as Tomb Raider was, as it's just a marketing deal. People will still buy Fifa on other consoles. It just helps the game sell well on Switch. EA wants its games to sell well there.
