FIFA 14 next generation version detailed

Players and Stadiums are the focus of the experience

Electronic Arts has announced first details about the next generation version of FIFA 14.

The game promises to feel alive with players who think, move and behave like world-class players, and dynamic stadiums that come to life. Fans will feel the electricity of a living stadium, and experience the majesty of the world’s greatest soccer theatres.

Players now have four times the decision making ability than the current generation of players in EA SPORTS FIFA, enabling each player to have Pro Instincts — human-like reactions, anticipation, and instincts. Plus, the artistry and athleticism of soccer stars will come to life with Elite Technique that world class players express in every match.

Players are also aware of the match and what needs to be done to get a result—their sense of urgency increases as the match draws on, and if a goal is needed, they rush to take a throw-in, corner or goal-kick if time is running down. Players will move more instinctively with the ball, anticipating and reacting to tackles by skipping over out-stretched legs to avoid collisions, using stiff arms to fend-off defenders or to brace for collisions, and turning their bodies to brush through contact. Defenders will anticipate moves to seal off opponents and intercept passes, and slow down attackers by hooking or holding an arm.

FIFA 14, developed at EA Canada, will release worldwide within the next 12 months on Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, and in September for current generation consoles and PC.
