FIFA 17 to include a story mode

Electronic Arts has announced The Journey, an all-new game mode in FIFA 17.

Fans will live the story on and off the pitch as Premier League prospect, Alex Hunter who is looking to make his mark. Fans will navigate emotional highs and lows of their unique story arc through decisions off the pitch, their performance on it, and character interactions throughout the 2016/17 season while playing for any of the 20 Premier League clubs.

On the pitch, there will be a variety of changes and additions. New penalties, free kicks, corners, and throw-ins bring creativity and variety in every dead ball situation. U.S. Patent-Pending Pushback Technology changes the way players physically interact in every situation and introduces a new shielding system that gives fans more control when in possession or battling to win the ball.

A brand new intelligence system promises the ability to better define and classify space to make smarter decisions off the ball. Players will utilize several New Run Types like fake, direct, and stunted runs to stay even more active off the ball. New options in attack give fans more ways to create chances and finish in front of goal. Send teammates in with a Threaded Through Pass and put exciting goals away with a Driven Finish or Downward Header.

FIFA 17 will be released in September for Xbox One, PC, and PS4. A version of the game will also be available on Xbox 360 and PS3.
