Epic Will Honour FIFA 23 Ultimate Edition's Accidental $0.063 Pre-Purchase Price
EA and FIFA will launch their final game together later this year, and the pre-orders for it have already been open for a while. Suffice to say, as is the case with almost any annual sports sim, FIFA 23 is pretty pricey, especially if you want the Ultimate Edition. That's unless you were lucky enough to bag the game for just five Indian rupees, a price Epic and EA have revealed they will be honoring.

As for exactly how much the lucky few who stumbled upon the erroneous deal are saving, FIFA 23's Ultimate Edition is currently priced at $99.99. And yes, as highlighted above, they will not be asked to pay the remaining $99.93.

It's unclear which party made the mistake, and which one decided to honor the incredibly cheap sales. The email is signed by the FIFA team at EA, but the Epic logo can also be seen on the message. It seems like a mistake for which everyone involved was to blame, and would have been one that required both parties to agree upon when it comes to honoring the low, low price of $0.063. The number of people who managed to get the game for so little hasn't been revealed.
