Today at EA Play EA announced the first details of the next progression in the FIFA franchise FIFA 19.
FIFA 19 comes with some massive news, we heard it on the grapevine, but today it was officially announced. After nearly a decade of PES owning the rights, EA Sports have finally secured the UEFA Champions League!
Along with the Champions League and Europa League fans will have new modes to play throughout FIFA 19, with the Champions League being featured in its own mode, career mode and through Ultimate Team … Majorly exciting!
New Gameplay Features
Active Touch System:
This new system fundamentally changes the way you receive and strike the ball, enabling closer control, improved fluidity in movement, more creativity, and increased player personality.
First touch gets an overhaul with new tools such as the disguised touch, flick-up volleys, or even skill specific animations like the Neymar Trap, so that you can stay one touch ahead of your opponent and create scoring chances.
Dynamic Tactics:
The reimagined tactical system gives players the tools to set multiple tactical approaches, deeper pre-match customization, and new options for in-match adjustments. Each tactical approach combines formations, mentalities, and attacking and defensive play styles so that you can easily customize your play in any situation.
50/50 Battles:
User reactions and player attributes determine the outcome of loose ball duels across the pitch. Thanks to increased teammate intelligence and spatial awareness, every challenge matters in the fight for possession.
