The Mind-Blowing Financial Benefit Of Being A FIFA eSports Player

2023 may seem like another great year for Spider-Man with two imminent sequels to two masterpieces from 2018 and yet another collaboration with Fortnite [13] [18] [22] [24], but any post-2005 year would be the opportunity for star FIFA footballers to score those goals, especially during online gameplay. According to a recent survey, undeniably professional FIFA footballers are earning more than professional football players competing beyond interactive media [21]. Surely, the FIFA series is not as time-demanding as the Monster Hunter series and the Animal Crossing series, which are some of the most time-demanding games, according to another recent study [5], but there is still an amount of time into virtual football matches for profit almost daily. A notable example of this would be the professional FIFA player Dan Ray, also known as “Stingrayjnr” explaining how he would play approximately 60 hours a week, including training before competing in tournaments [20]. Moreover, FIFA eSports players are earning over 25% more than professional soccer players in the United Kingdom, which is rather mind-blowing, considering how much the modern FIFA games are a lot like live football matches on sports channels due to their lifelike graphics, licensed interpretations of real-life football teams and the inclusion of commentators, only under the control of a FIFA footballer [2] [6] [7] [8] [21] [27]. 
The annual income of FIFA eSports players is over 15% more than League Two players, according to the survey [21]. [10]

From what I have experienced, gaming can require some form of skill, such as three-dimensional thinking for helping Lara Croft strive safely and confidently in the Tomb Raider series [9]. Moreover, quite a lot of dedication and practising must have been required for a FIFA footballer to gradually evolve into a professional for income [2] [27]. Last year, Umut Gültekin, one of the top professional FIFA footballers earned over $250,000 from competing in tournaments [21]. Even if you are a die-hard football fan, please do not be like “Get a real job!” to these FIFA footballers who play FIFA for a living, especially if they happen to reside in a country suffering from a cost-of-living crisis [4]. Some of the money made from professional FIFA playing could go to gaming subscriptions, depending on a FIFA footballer’s choice with a monthly subscription to Ubisoft+ being the priciest, according to another recent survey [20]. Of course, it is not just FIFA footballers playing FIFA for playable profit. According to yet another recent study, Daniel Robert Middleton, also known as “DanTDM” is the wealthiest YouTube content creator in the United Kingdom with over twenty-six-million subscribers and is known for playing a variety of games, including Roblox, Minecraft, the Sonic the Hedgehog series and the Pokémon series [1]. 
Please do not refer to these professional FIFA footballers and other professional gamers as “talentless hacks” simply for playing video games for a living [1] [21]. Respectfully wish them the best if you think this form of profit is not in your interests. On a lighter note, looking at David Beckham playing with his virtual counterpart makes me wish I had one. [6]
Whether you are a professional FIFA footballer or a star soccer player beyond social media, you still deserve plenty of income to support yourself and your loved ones, along with support from colleagues and fans [21]. Deep down, mental health should be valued more than financial gain and there ought to be time for many other things in life besides video games [29] [30]. Aside from that, all the female FIFA footballers who especially love playing as any of the women’s football teams have my support [2] [26], considering how hard we have worked to make gaming more inclusive for women throughout the years and this year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup will begin soon [25] [28]. The FIFA series is the best-selling sports video game series of all time, and it has come a long way since FIFA International Soccer from 1993 [11] [12], leading to the franchise’s 30th anniversary, which ought to be celebrated especially this July [11]. In the meantime, our Sonic supporters and Minecrafters are mining and crafting with the new Sonic Texture pack, our street fighters are feeling feisty shortly after the launch of Street Fighter 6 and there is a passion for the Girls Nite Out Fashion Pack for Bratz: Flaunt Your Fashion [3] [14] [17] [31]. Have an amazing Summer this year, fellow gamers!
There is very little doubt that FIFA 23 would even be enlightening ongoing experience for professional FIFA footballers on the upcoming Project Q device that will basically be a PlayStation 5 going Nintendo Wii U/Switch on us [7] [8] [15] [16] [19] [27]. Until then, let us balance financial income with what is truly gold besides what glitters.
