We’ve come a long way from NBA Jam and Tecmo Super Bowl. The new FIFA 17 trailer depicts something more along the lines of a summer blockbuster than a video game.
The new game has a mode called ‘The Journey,’ which will allow you to “make your mark on and off the pitch as the Premier League’s next rising star, Alex Hunter.” In other words, not only will you play as Hunter, but control every aspect of his life outside of the bedroom. Or who knows, maybe even that too …
The game mode will also be powered by Frostbite, which is reportedly a big deal if you like insane realism in your gaming.
But enough with the talk. Just watch the trailer. After all, it nearly has 3 million views in its first day.
The game will be released September 29.
