FIFA 16 recently rolled out onto shelves all around the world and fans are ecstatic about the new game.
FIFA 16 has friends making plans to play FIFA together to prove who the greatest player is, others playing FUT to get started on their team so they can show off their teams later. And somewhere in the world Chad Johnson is tweeting about how great he is in FIFA.
According to Financialpost.com, FIFA 15 sold more than 14.5 million copies globally and was the best selling sports game last year, beating their biggest competitors Madden 15 and 2K15. This year, with many new additions EA hopes to surpass their last record.
Many may argue that the game is the same and they struggle to find a difference between the last FIFA but EA still manages to come out with a new game every year, selling millions of copies around the world and winning awards. According to the Guinness World Records, after FIFA 16’s release the Fifa series is the most sold game with 146.13 million sales around the world.
This year, EA focused on in-game mechanics such as passing and dribbling to make the game more realistic. EA notched up the graphics and expanded on player detailing up to the point where you can see the tattoos of the player you’re controlling.
EA also included a new mechanic to the game called “FIFA Trainer” for the new players or for players who are trying to get better. FIFA Trainer assists the player by showing what to press while playing, which could attract many new players to the game as they have an easier opportunity to learn and become great at the game.
For FIFA’s most popular game mode, Ultimate Team, FIFA came up with a new add-on known as Draft mode where you and your friends have the opportunity to draft your dream team accordingly. You can choose a player out of a selection of five and customize your team either based on chemistry or player ratings.
EA made slight tweaks to have a better feel than the last FIFA but the major change that most fans are thrilled about is FIFA 16 giving the fans an option to play with 12 different women’s national teams, including USA, Japan and Germany. Alex Morgan even made the US FIFA cover alongside Messi.
EA has been making the series since FIFA International Soccer and still continues to make it after 22 years, showing they’ve been doing something right and most likely will not stop anytime soon, as they come out with something bigger, and better every year.
All of these changes have made FIFA 16 a worthy buy, and a much better purchase than the previous FIFA. EA finally cared enough to add new game modes, which enriches gaming experience for both new and experienced gamers. You should definitely go and pick this up as soon as you can.
