The other modes that have been included in the previous games in the series return as well. While that part of the gameplay has been included in a number of other games in the series. The game has also overhauled the FIFA 16 Ultimate Team mode. Players will be able to play in 78 different stadiums, 50 of which are real world venues based and modeled after the actual stadiums. In addition to the usual gameplay features that are included in most of the FIFA series games, FIFA 16 has added the revamped Career mode. The game does not have the kind of intensive story mode for this that was introduced in other sports games like NBA 2K16 or even WWE 2K16 where there are behind the scenes actions and interactions taking place. There are summer tournaments and training sessions that will affect how a player progresses throughout their career in order to become a better player. There is also a career mode that takes a more in depth dive for users who wants to pretend that they are actually FIFA level soccer players. Players play through seasons, franchises and tournaments using their favorite FIFA teams and how the matches unfold makes up the story of the game.

While many of the features offered in the PS4 and Xbox One and PC are present in the last generation platforms, features like Creation Centre, custom music and chants, the FIFA Interactive World Cup, GameFace, match lobbies and the secondary English commentary from Andy Townsend and Clyde Tyldesley have all been left out of the last generation version of FIFA 16. The company also changed the way it developed games for the Xbox 360 and the PS3. That is especially noteworthy considering it’s the first time that the game won’t be offered on some sort of Nintendo platform.
While the game was brought to most of the usual platforms such as the PS4, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC and even mobile games, it is not being brought to the Vita or the Nintendo 3DS.
The addition of Boquete is especially interesting considering that she had actually petitioned EA Sports through to include female players a few years back. The video included live and in-game footage of such players as Morgan, Leroux, Rapinoe, Abby Wambach, Hope Solo, Spain’s Verónica Boquete, England’s Eniola Aluko and Steph Houghton, Germany’s Célia Šašić, Canada’s Christine Sinclair and Sweden’s Kosovare Asllani. FIFA 16 was announced with an official reveal trailer that also showed off the inclusion of the women’s football feature. FIFA 16 was officially announced on though it was expected to be in development long before that considering the game is part of a long running series.
