FIFA 22 PC activation is not limited to one device [UPDATE]

Two computers? Too bad.

FIFA 22 PC activation will not be limited to one device, EA has today clarified with Stevivor.

Yesterday, multiple outlets reported that the game’s Steam page listed a notification of “1 machine activation limit” earlier today, though that statement has since been removed as of the time of writing.

Today, EA has confirmed with Stevivor that the statement was inadvertedly added by mistake.

“We can confirm there is not a one machine limit for FIFA 22 on PC via Steam,” an EA representative confirmed with Stevivor. “This was listed incorrectly, and the limitation has now been removed. We apologise for the confusion and thank our community for noticing the error.”

Good news for PC fans, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows — while current-gen consoles PS5 and Xbox Series S & X will take advantage of FIFA‘s new HyperMotion functionality, an “advanced 11v11 Match Capture and proprietary machine learning technology,” EA has advised that PC versions of the game will not.

FIFA 22 heads to Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5 and Stadia from 1 October. FIFA 22 Legacy Edition will also be offered on Switch.
