England’s football teams have chosen Xbox as their official gaming partner

Microsoft’s well-known and extremely addictive Xbox electronic game system has entered into a new partnership with the English Football Federation. This exciting agreement was finally confirmed last week, with Xbox becoming the official match partner of all English national football teams. With the federation, this collaboration will include teams from all categories, including men’s, women’s, and youngsters, as well as e-Sports, Wembley Stadium, and the St. George’s Park national center.

When Everyone Plays, We All Win

According to Soccerex, which arranges events for the English Football Association, this relationship is a great victory of Xbox and the FA’s guiding philosophy of inclusion in the game. This inclusion message is exemplified by Xbox’s long-standing effort for games that are inclusive, accessible, and safe for all players. The FA is also working hard to ensure that every football player in England, regardless of background, has a great experience. Because of this element in common, the collaboration has been acknowledged with the motto “when everyone plays, we all win” as a defining feature.
