Gamers can expand their own Ultimate Team line-up

Jun 24, 2015 14:07 GMT  ·  By

The development team at EA Sports is continuing to deliver more content for those who love the Ultimate Team mode in FIFA 15 in the form of another Team of the Week, even if most of the company is now focused on the creation of the next title in the series.

Because of the smaller number of important matches taking place at the moment, the developers have selected a team that does not have a huge amount of stars, with David Villa offering most of the firepower up front.

He is joined in the attacking line of the new Team of the Week by Zardes and Berisha.

The midfield that EA Sports has selected includes four players: Santos, Hong Chul, Garcia, and the very solid Morales.

The defensive line is made up of Svensson, Lim Jong Eu and Vilsvik.

The goalkeeper included in the Team of the Week is the relative unknown Ousted.

FIFA 16 introduces women's football teams and upgraded core mechanics

The first major feature that was revealed for the coming experience was the fact that 12 major women’s national teams from the world of football would be featured, with a new animation and motion capture system designed to reflect how they approach football in the real world.

Since then, EA Sports has announced that it is upgrading the core mechanics in order to give players more defensive options and teams the ability to defend as a unit.

In midfield, the pass structure is being improved, to allow gamers to create more chances, and attackers now have access to no touch dribbling and to better-placed shots.

The only element of the new football sim that EA Sports has not yet talked about is Ultimate Team, which we know will be more secure.

The fan community is speculating that the studio is also introducing big changes in order to keep the playing field more level in the long term, which in turn will mean that a bigger audience will be interested in taking part.

FIFA 16 is set to arrive on September 25 of this year on the PC, the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, with gamers who own older consoles able to get special Legacy versions that will not have some of the core features.
