EA Sports announced with great fanfare one of the most anticipated news by fans of both Argentina and the rest of the world. La Bombonera will be at FIFA again, returning in the 23rd edition that will be released to the public on September 30, almost two months before the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
This is what La Bombonera looks like in FIFA 23.
“Completely re-scanned and updated, the Club Atlético Boca Juniors pitch will make all soccer fans beat to the rhythm of its digital version just as it does in real life,” the company said in the official statement. “La Bombonera is one of the most famous and distinctive football stadiums in the world and we are excited for fans to experience it in FIFA 23 and beyond”assured James Samon, Director of Marketing of EA Sports.

Although a trailer of what was going to be seen in the game had already been seen, since September 26 FIFA 23 is already available for those who bought it in pre-sale and therefore better images of the Xeneize temple could be seen. Also, see what the fans and players look like.
Why did the Bombonera return but the Monumental is still not there?
Both Boca and River signed an exclusivity contract with Konami, the developer of PES, now called eFootball, a few years ago. Xeneize decided not to renew it for 2022 and that is why it returned with its original team and shirt in FIFA 22. River also returned with its real name and its players, but since it is still bound by a commercial contract with the Japanese company, its stadium is not yet available.
How much does the pre-sale of FIFA 23 cost on the different platforms
The pre-sale of the standard version of FIFA 23 was priced at $60 for PS4 and $70 for PS5. Both can be purchased through the Playstation Store. However, it must be remembered that, after the 10% increase in the amount for Income Tax and Personal Assets, all games will suffer an increase. In this case, with the current conversion, they would cost around 14 thousand (PS4) and 16 thousand Argentine pesos (PS5) respectively.
How much is FIFA 23 for Xbox
On Xbox, the situation is different, since the games are sold directly in Argentine pesos. In this case, the standard version costs 8 thousand pesos for the One console, and 9 thousand pesos for the XS Series.
How much does FIFA 23 cost for Nintendo Switch and PC
On Nintendo Switch, the game can be purchased for 5 thousand Argentine pesos. While in PC it has a value of 9 thousand pesos. To these numbers we must add the 75% tax that the Government charges when buying them from Argentina.
