#FIFA 18 is an upcoming football simulation video game in the FIFA seriesdeveloped and published by Electronic Arts, which is scheduled to be released on 29 September 2017[1][2] for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.[3] It will be the 25th installment in the FIFA series. This is will be the second FIFA game in the series to use the Frostbite game engine. Cristiano Ronaldo will serve as the cover athlete on the game.[4][5] Once again, the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will not match up to their PS4 and Xbox One counterparts and will not include The Journey.[2] The Nintendo Switch version is a custom build port, and Electronic Arts claims it to be "the most technologically-advanced portable FIFA experience ever", despite also missing features like The Journey.[6]
#The Journey: Hunter’s Return
In last season’s game The Journey was introduced a new single-player story campaign mode for PS4, Xbox One and Windows will also continue in this in this series.[8][9] If one completed the original story, they will begin FIFA 18 at the same club – with traits and honours, such as a Premier League title or FA Cup win are carried over. As for those starting afresh they will see a montage of key plot points, then be able to select from any current English Premier League side.
In this year's edition, Alex Hunter, the 18-year-old main character from Clapham, London, returns and is fully customisable.[10]Players will have to unlock items which include new clothes and hairstyles for Hunter.
While FIFA 17 locked Hunter to the English Premier League and Championship, EA announced that this time players will get to experience "the world of football", with Brazil and the USA among the new locations. In the teaser trailer shows Hunter in a Real Madrid kit on a television in the background.[9] The trailer is centred around whether or not Hunter will join a new club ahead of season two, with one newspaper clipping suggesting a "world-record move" is on the cards.[11][5] Ronaldo also features in The Journey 2 as part of Alex Hunter’s comeback story.[11]
#Development and release
#FIFA18 Ultimate Team Icons
FIFA 18 Ultimate Team Icons,[12][13] the new version of what has previously been called Legends which was only available for Xbox One, will now be playable in gamers' Ultimate Teams on PS4, Xbox One and PC.[14] EA announced that it will be including numerous iconic players from football history, which FIFA 18 players will be able to use in Ultimate Team. The announced FIFA 18 Icons[15] so far include Brazilian Ronaldo[12]whose pace and finishing made him a three-time Ballon d'Orwinner,[16] Diego Maradona[12]one of the greatest dribblers of all time,[17][18]Thierry Henry[12][19] one of the Premier League’s all-time greats and an Arsenal legend, Lev Yashin[12]who earned the nickname “Black Spider”. He spent 20 years at Dynamo Moscow,[20]making 270 clean sheets[21]and saving over 150 penalties [21] and Pelé[12]known as one of the greatest footballers of all time.[22][23] More FIFA 18 Icons will be announced in the months leading up to FIFA 18’s release date.
#Nintendo Switch version
On 12 January 2017, during the Nintendo Switch Presentation, EA announced a custom-built port of FIFA 18 on the Nintendo Switch console, set for release on the same day as the other consoles. Due to the weaker power of the Switch in contrast to the PS4 and Xbox One, it will run on an internal EA engine, as opposed to the EA DICE Frostbite Engine. As a result of this omission, the Switch version will also exclude the Journey: Hunter Returns, the second season of the story mode introduced in FIFA 17. The Switch version will run at a resolution of 1080p/60fps when docked to a TV, and 720p/60fps in handheld/tabletop mode. However, outside of the Journey mode exclusion, FIFA 18 on Switch will feature every other staple mode, including Career Mode, which is not explicitly referred to as Be A Pro mode from FIFA 17 by EA. The Switch version will mark the first time Ultimate Team ever made an appearance on a Nintendo system. Features exclusive to the Switch version include local multiplayer in the form of the new mode Local Seasons, allowing up to 4 Nintendo Switches to connect and compete in a five-match sequence. Another mode exclusive to Switch is the Switch Kick-Off mode, allowing players to instantly get into local/solo matches.
#Stadium
While FIFA 17 featured more than 70 stadiums[24][25] including the likes of the Santiago Bernabéu, Juventus Stadium and Allianz Arena, there were some notable names missing in the series. FIFA 18 features 52 fully licensed stadiums from 12 countries, including new stadiums, plus 30 generic fields equals to a total of 82.[26] All 20 Premier League stadiums are represented in the series which means that newly prompted teams for the 2017/18 season, Brighton & Hove Albion's home ground the Amex Stadium and Huddersfield Town's home ground the John Smith’s Stadium have been added and also LA Galaxy’s StubHub Center. [27] Camp Nou is a notable omission as PES have exclusive rights.[28] White Hart Lane will not feature as Tottenham have now moved to Wembley.[29][24]
