# About this dataset |
|
|
|
### Context |
|
|
|
The datasets provided include the players data for the Career Mode from FIFA 15 to FIFA 23. The data allows multiple comparisons for the same players across the last 9 versions of the video game. |
|
|
|
Some ideas of possible analysis: |
|
|
|
- Historical comparison between Messi and Ronaldo (what skill attributes changed the most during time - compared to real-life stats); |
|
- Ideal budget to create a competitive team (at the level of top n teams in Europe) and at which point the budget does not allow to buy significantly better players for the 11-men lineup. An extra is the same comparison with the Potential attribute for the lineup instead of the Overall attribute; |
|
- Sample analysis of top n% players (e.g. top 5% of the player) to see if some important attributes as Agility or BallControl or Strength have been popular or not acroos the FIFA versions. |
|
|
|
### Content |
|
|
|
- Every player, coach, and team available in FIFA 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and also FIFA 23 |
|

|

|

|

|
|
|
Updates from previous FIFA 22 dataset are the following: |
|
|
|
- Inclusion of FIFA 23 data |
|
- Inclusion of all FIFA updates for each version from 15 to 23 |
|
- Addition of coaches and teams data |
|
- Data provided only with the 2nd yearly FIFA update - like done in the previous datasets - is still available in files called `male_players (legacy).csv` and `female_players (legacy).csv` |
|
- Players data for each gender is now combined in a single file for all FIFA versions and updates |
|
- Only CSV files uploaded (Excel files excluded) |
|
- Other minor changes (e.g. field in players' data called 'sofifa_id' has been updated to 'player_id', since teams and coaches are now included too) |
