FC 24 Coins was never a standout FIFA game and unfortunately fell in the period of games that showed little changes and improvements, leading to poor reviews and angry fans. However, the one good thing that came out of this period was Alex Hunter and the story mode that gave fans a new and unique experience in FIFA games. Hunter is a fictional player whose journey fans were able to follow as they competed in the top leagues in Europe before being pushed down to the MLS, and worked to return to his former glory.

Titled The Journey, Alex Hunter‘s story saw players need to bring him back up to the top by performing well in matches and completing certain objectives, and even gained control of Kim, Alex's sister who also played professional soccer. Unfortunately, just as the game mode was starting to grow among fans, it was canceled for FC 24 Ultimate Teamure titles, leaving a gaping hole in terms of content. Now, with FIFA and EA Sports parting ways, the former has a chance to provide fans with a unique story mode experience like that of Alex Hunter, showcasing the ins and outs of a career as a professional soccer player.

While Alex Hunter may not get a return in a FC 24 Ultimate Teamure FIFA game, partly because his character was created by EA Sports and partly because it was never as successful as it could have been, FIFA should still release a new story mode. Including this type of game mode will be essential for FIFA as it attempts to rebuild a soccer game from the ground up as it will not only improve the amount of content in the game, but it will help them stand apart from EA Sports FC and the rest of the competition.

Whether it is another Alex Hunter character or a new take on career mode, a story-driven game mode is something that fans of FIFA games have been asking for since Alex Hunter exited the scene in cheap FIFA 24 Coins. FIFA could shape the story mode in many ways, however, moving away from a pre-created player is probably the best move, and instead allowing fans to create their own player, similar to Player Career, would make the game mode feel much more personable. The story could include any team in the game since FIFA will have access to all the licenses, and it will also leave room for legends of the sport to make cameos.
