REDWOOD CITY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) today announced that EA SPORTS™ FIFA
16*, chosen Best Sports Game by E3 2015 Game Critics,
delivers New Ways to Play in its two most popular modes: FIFA
Ultimate Team™ (FUT) and Career Mode. FIFA Ultimate Team introduces FUT
Draft, a brand new way for fans to test their team building skills and
compete with some of the best football players in the world. And this
season, Career Mode adds two features most requested by fans: Pre-season
Tournaments and Player Training that ensure an even deeper and more
authentic career whether fans play as a manager or a pro.
In FIFA Ultimate Team Draft, fans can compete in single player or
online** in a single knockout string of four games to achieve rewards –
the more games won, the better the reward to utilize in your FUT Club.
Once fans enter a Draft using virtual coins, FIFA Points, or a Draft
Token, they will choose from one of five formations, then a captain, and
then go on to fill out the rest of their 23-man squad by selecting a
player from a choice of five in each position. Fans will be tested as
they choose between picking the best players and creating a team with
the right chemistry before they enter their games. See FUT Draft in
action as two of England’s top football pundits, Jamie Carragher and
Gary Neville play the all new mode: here.
“We are delivering unprecedented depth and innovation to the franchise
this season by bringing several new ways to play across Career Mode,
Ultimate Team, and through the introduction of twelve Women’s National
Teams,” said David Rutter, VP and GM, EA SPORTS FIFA. “We think fans are
going to be equally as excited with all the new ways as they have been
with the gameplay in FIFA 16. From hands-on gameplay events
across the world, we’ve heard resoundingly positive feedback on the
balanced and exciting experience we are building in FIFA 16.”
FIFA 16 delivers Innovation Across the Entire Pitch in
gameplay highlighted by No Touch Dribbling and Clinical Finishing, two
new features sure to provide Moments of Magic in the final third. To
balance against attacking players, defenders now move as a unit with new
positioning and 25 feature changes to their locomotion, ensuring they
stay with attackers and give fans Confidence in Defending. Arguably the
most important part of the pitch, the middle of the park is where
matches are won and lost, and FIFA 16 encourages fans to gain
Control in Midfield with Passing with Purpose and Interception
Intelligence, two revolutionary features that elevate the battle for
possession and balance gameplay. Goalkeepers have also been improved
with new save animations and authentic positioning.
Rich and authentic football narrative in FIFA 16 is driven by
hours of new commentary, new commentators in German and Russian, and
more than 900 new real chants sung in stadiums across the globe.
BORRUSSIA-PARK in Mönchengladbach, El Monumental in Buenos Aires, and
CenturyLink Field in Seattle make up three of the nine stadiums making
their debut in FIFA 16, taking the total to more than 70 stadia
in game. And the German Bundesliga gets an authentic presentation
package in FIFA 16 synonymous with the league’s television
broadcast visuals, including score graphics, team sheets, and player
analysis.
FIFA Ultimate Team also adds new broadcast presentation to give fans a
unique experience from game-to-game. Dynamic commentary in FUT will now
have commentators reacting to the stats and history of your club. FIFA
16 also sees the arrival of Legends Chemistry, which will increase
chemistry links between legends and squad players, and eight new FIFA
Ultimate Team Legends, only on Xbox.
In Career Mode, Pre-season Tournaments will help managers grow transfer
budgets and get their team in good form ahead of competition that
counts. Managers will select from three of nine tournaments presented at
the start of each season before jumping into their domestic campaign.
Player Training will assist in the development of youth and squad
players in between matches. Fans will select from more than 30 drills
and put up to five players through their paces to improve faster. This
opens up new ways to play, especially for those managers looking to
develop youth players and transfer them to other clubs.
The all new FIFA Trainer helps all fans Compete at a Higher Level
by utilizing an optional, ground-breaking in-game training system which
uses the context of the game to display controller options to the
player. The trainer options will progress as the level of the trainer
increases, which can be set to automatic or controlled manually.
FIFA 16 innovates across the entire pitch to deliver a balanced,
authentic, and beautiful football experience. Fans who pre-order***
FIFA 16 can choose from Standard, Deluxe, and Super Deluxe
editions. The Super Deluxe edition offers up to 40 FIFA
Ultimate Team™ Jumbo Premium Gold Packs, three FIFA Ultimate Team
loan players for five games each, and two brand new celebrations from
the EA SPORTS Football Club catalogue.
