Released by EA, EA Sports FIFA is a sports sim that is set to release on Android on Sept. 22nd, according to EA’s page. The football/soccer game is set to include a new game engine, new controls that allow players to use either gestures or virtual buttons, and also the addition of athlete celebrations, to be triggered after scoring a goal.
Players will also be in charge of maintaining their rosters through trades and transfers, and this will include stars such as Lionel Messi, Jordan Henderson, and Juan Cuadrado, with a total of over 10,000 athletes from more than 500 officially licensed teams. Other factors beyond names that need to be considered are formation, play style, kits, and balancing player chemistry.
Players can battle against each other, as well as recreate challenges from actual, live matches in what’s called Dynamic Accomplishments. Lastly, players can also trade in excess numbers of both items, as well as athletes on the rosters, in the hopes of getting back an upgraded version of what was traded in; the higher the “trade in value” means higher the return.
This game has already undergone a soft launch on iOS. If the pricing on iTunes is any indication, the game will be free to download with optional IAPs, which is pretty much standard for EA game releases these days.
