New York Attorney General Letitia James and her New Jersey counterpart Jennifer Davenport say their investigation follows widespread complaints from fans about high ticket prices.
And complaints that some fans paid for premium seats only to learn they'd been placed in cheaper sections.
Tickets for the eight games at MetLife Stadium are averaging $2,800.
That's more than twice the rate of other host cities.
In a statement, James said New Yorkers have been waiting years for the World Cup to come to their backyard, and they deserve a fair shot at affordable tickets.
FIFA declined to comment on the investigation, but has in the past defended high ticket prices as reflective of market forces.
