"When developing FIFA Mobile, we focused on giving players the
most exciting parts of football in quick and fun bursts while
prioritizing gameplay and engaging, new ways to play FIFA
on-the-go," said Todd Batty, Senior Producer. "This meant building a
game that was optimized for the mobile player resulting in a fun and
social game that loads quickly, runs smoothly on a wider range of
devices, and has a small download size relative to the depth of features
and content in the game."
Attack
Mode is a new way to play EA SPORTS FIFA on mobile, and it's
all about scoring goals. In this action-packed, turn-based mode with
quick matches, players attempt to capitalize on as many attacking
scenarios as possible, and then ‘pass' the action to their opponent to
do the same. Every goal scored earns in-game Fans which help players
climb Divisions.
FIFA Mobile introduces Leagues,
where players can create a league with friends or join an existing
league of up to 32 players from around the world to compete and climb
leaderboards. Players can earn cooperative league achievements, compete
for bragging rights in inter-league championships, and challenge other
Leagues in Tournaments.
For mobile players interested in crafting squads, Plans is a
system to remove unwanted items by assembling them to earn new or better
ones in the form of in-game rewards. Plans encourages players to build a
bigger and deeper club, while offering a simplified method to help
unlock valuable items in the game.
Complementing all of the new ways to play are fully-hybrid, gesture and
touch controls which give advanced players more strategic options, while
keeping gameplay simple and fun for everyone.
FIFA Mobile operates as a Live
Service, delivering fresh, authentic daily content and challenges
based on real world stories and matches. If it happens in the
real world of football, players might experience it in FIFA Mobile
via Live Events, new Plans, or by finding new content available in Packs.
FIFA Mobile supports a wide range of devices, is playable in 19
different languages, and has an install size under 100 MB - big enough
to host more than 30 leagues, 16,000 footballers, and 650 clubs.
