Today was a big day for fans of EA Sports’ FIFA video game series. The first look at the new game came out in the form of a 55 second teaser trailer that featured Chelsea’s Eden Hazard prominently.
Advertising a changing of eras, EA Sports have announced they are adopting the Frostbite engine to run their newest installment of FIFA. The well-known engine that runs games such as Battlefield will replace the Ignite engine. To give us a glimpse of it’s capabilities, the teaser featured flashbacks of previous years’s games, then slowly panned up to Eden Hazard’s in-game model, which you are almost unable to distinguish from his real-life self.
No release date has been given for FIFA. We should get a concrete date when the full reveal trailer drops on June 12. However, it usually comes out at the end of September.
Check out the Teaser:
“FIFA 17 also introduces four new football ambassadors who have influenced complete innovation in the action on the pitch. James Rodriguez of Real Madrid C.F., Anthony Martial of Manchester United, Eden Hazard of Chelsea FC, and Marco Reus of Borrusia Dortmund are four world-class attacking footballers who are capable of changing any game.
They all worked with EA Sports to bring to life the gameplay innovation which will be revealed at EA Play. The ambassadors also appear in the FIFA 17 pre-order offer as loan players in FIFA 17 Ultimate Team.”
