EA Sports has confirmed that all teams in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) will be added to a FIFA video game for the first time after announcing that 12 clubs will join the FIFA 23 roster this month. And now it has revealed its top-rated players in the league, with a list dominated by United States women’s national team (USWNT) players.
The latest edition of the FIFA franchise already features more women’s teams and players than ever before, with the NWSL now joining the Women’s Super League (the top division of women’s football in England) and Division 1 Feminine (France) before the new campaign kicks off March 25.

To further whet the whistle ahead of the impending launch, EA Sports has unveiled the full list of FIFA 23 player ratings for every NWSL player. The current top-rated women’s player in FIFA 23 is Alexia Putellas of Barcelona and Spain, who commands an overall rating of 92 in the base game.
