For the first time, EA has opted to not release a standalone World Cup game for this year's big event, and will instead release a free update for FIFA 18. The big patch will include all 32 teams competing in the tournament this summer, along with all 12 Russian stadiums, official team kits and badges, and so forth. EA has revealed its World Cup expansion for FIFA 18, and it's coming to PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch on May 29.
