FIFA 23 Adds First-Ever Hijab-Wearing Female Player
If you’re not sure who female soccer player Nouhaïla Benzina is, you’ll find out soon enough if you play a lot of FIFA 23.
For the first time in gaming history, FIFA 23 has added a hijab-wearing player in the game out in the field: Nouhaïla Benzina. Benzina is a Moroccan player who is in the ongoing 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup and the first to play the game wearing the headscarf.
On Wednesday, EA Sports announced the addition of Nouhaila Benzina on FIFA 23 as she was previously not in the World Cup mode ??
Her impact on the big stage has already reached the biggest simulation game in the sport.
