Microsoft likely had to pay quite a significant amount for the Fifa marketing and some exclusive content to entice Europe earlier in the gen.

Yeah I can't disagree with that. But this is essentially a new IP, and getting the marketing will only associate the brand with the console sooner. This will have benefits in years to come. 

You are entirely right, both will likely benefit. Just not sure how long will take for it to reach the same size of the previous title.
