For the first time in 22 years after it first launched the football simulation video game “FIFA”, EA Sports will include female national teams to the franchise.
According to Eurogamer, “FIFA 16”will feature a dozen football squads from countries such as England, USA, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain and Sweden.
EA Sports boss David Rutter announced that as much as fans are excited about having female national teams included in the game, they are likewise delighted on the prospect of bringing a new way to play to millions of gamers.
He said that brining some of the best women’s players and teams in the world to “FIFA 16” is a major achievement for EA Sports.
Rutter added that they are making sure gamers get an authentic experience when playing with Women’s National Teams through EA Sports’ innovative player capture and reference tools as well as its sophisticated gameplay platform which the developer continues to improve.
Release date and price
While EA Sports has yet to confirm the release date for the latest iteration of its highly-successful football simulation video game “FIFA 16,” the release dates on seven key regions of the world starting on September 22 has already been published last week.
Accordingly, “FIFA 16” would hit the North American market on September 22 before it gets to three different regions two days later. It will make it to the retail markets on September 24 in Australia, Europe, and Latin America except Brazil.
On September 25, it will roll out to the United Kingdom and a little over two weeks later or on October 8, it will hit the retail markets of Japan and Brazil.
“FIFA 16” also has a placeholder date of December 31, 2015 but it has been the tradition of EA Sports to release “FIFA” video games in September so it seems that the release schedule already published may be on target.
EA would most likely make an announcement or official launching about the game anytime from June to August before officially making the video game available to the retail markets in September. The developer would most likely provide more details about “FIFA 16” despite of the fact that information about the upcoming football simulation video game have been very aplenty in the internet lately.
In terms of prices, it is reported that when it is released beginning in September, “FIFA 16” shall have a retail price of 60 Euros (approximately $68.34) for the PC, 70 Euros (approximately $79.73) for the current generation gaming consoles such as the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, and 73 Euros (approximately $83.15) for the next generation gaming consoles Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.
Career mode
It has been reported in mid-May that the upcoming football simulation video game may see the addition of a story mode that lets players create a football character, take him through the process of training, and play his way up to the big football clubs.
The reported new feature on “FIFA 16” is actually similar to the MyPlayer mode in “NBA 2K15” and MyCareer mode in “WWE 2K15,” which makes the story mode really viable and plausible too.
