Video game: A look at FIFA 22

FIFA 22 will be a football simulation video game published by Electronic Arts as part of the FIFA video game series. 

It will be the 29th instalment in the FIFA series. It will be released on 1 October 2021 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles. There will be enhanced versions released for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Google Stadia. Watch a video of some gameplay in the video below. 

New features of this latest instalment 

The Career Mode allows you to create a club and lead them from relegation candidates to global giants. The overhauled Player Career experience gives you more ways to progress, achieve, and immerse yourself in your Pro’s journey through the game. 

EA Sports also talk about true ball physics. It says on their website: "Real-world data imported into FIFA 22 takes the game’s ball physics to a new level of realism. Tuned parameters including speed, swerve, air drag, air resistance, ground friction, and rolling friction mean every touch, trap, shot, volley, pass, and dribble will look, move, and fly like the real thing."

Ultimate Team news

Ultimate Team on FIFA 22 has redesigned Division Rivals and FUT Champions to create a more accessible way to test your skills and progress against other players, gives you even more ways to make your club your own with new depths of customisation both on and off the pitch. 

The game will also introduce FUT Heroes - the return of some of football’s most memorable players. The video below explores FUT Heroes in much more detail.

Do you remember the first time?

The first-ever version of FIFA was released on 15 December 1993. At this time, the game was ground-breaking. It used isometric technology, instead of 16-bit style which was popular at the time.

This version didn't use real player names and only featured national teams. The game contained a bug that allowed you to score goals by standing in front of a goalkeeper and also running away from referees to avoid getting a card. It was released on the SNES and SEGA Megadrive.
