10 Video Game Trophy Stats You Won't Believe

3. Most FIFA Players Haven't Played A Single Women's Match

There's no two ways about it - this one really stinks.

The FIFA franchise finally introduced the ability to play as female football teams back in FIFA 16, and ever since has included a trophy for playing even a single women's football match.

Sadly the resulting data is pretty damn depressing, with just 20% of players playing even one women's match in FIFA 16, and that number has basically fallen further off a cliff with each new release.

By FIFA 22, just 6% of players had popped the "Passion" achievement for playing a women's International football match, and the recent EA Sports FC 24 saw this figure drop to a catastrophic 0.8%.

It doesn't help at all that EA's implementation of female football in the franchise remains relatively piecemeal compared to the male side, but at the same time, the fact that their inclusion has moved the needle so little with the player-base is still very disappointing.
