It’s always been the case that reviewing a sports game that comes out annually can be a difficult task. When compared to more traditional releases that often see drastic alteration to gameplay, each successor in a sports franchise often involves only gradual improvement with just a few subtle changes. EA has made the job of reviewing FIFA 17 slightly easier thanks to the fact they have transitioned to a new game engine and introduced a new mode that is the most significant addition since the inclusion of Ultimate Team. Several year ago, EA decided that they were going to begin using the Frostbite engine, developed by DICE for the Battlefield series, as the basis for all of their games in the future. The latest FIFA entry has finally saw the series migrate over to the new engine as well.

The national team for Iceland won’t appear in EA’s latest soccer sim offering thanks to a dispute between the country’s football association (KSI) and the publisher.

Although we will have to wait until next week before getting the full breakdown on the latest instalment in the FIFA series, EA have released some information about the upcoming football simulator. According to the publisher, FIFA 17 will use the Frostbite engine for the first time and will release worldwide on September 29. It will be available on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, though only the next generation consoles and PC will get the version with the upgraded engine. Frostbite is the engine that was developed by DICE for use in the Battlefield series and has since been adopted by the company for almost every single EA game, including the likes of Madden and Dragon Age: Origins. This means that the franchise will be ditching the Ignite engine that has been used for the past few years. The new graphical capabilities this brings to FIFA 17 can be seen below in a brief teaser trailer, though fans will have to wait until the
