Why this has Piqued our interest
- Paul

The FIFA franchise has long been key element of Football culture and that is a female presence. This season the creators at EA will integrate Women's teams for the first time. Although only national teams to begin with and in a relatively small capacity on the playing front it tis still good to see.
The new title will have a raft of new features all of which are outlined ion the press release below the trailer and Screenshots. The one I would like to pick out though is FIFA Trainer, if anyone has seen my gameplay videos for FIFA they know I need help as do the large number of new players coming to the game every year. If this mode works well then it will be a way to help players learn and hopefully turn a new player into a returning player for future releases in the FIFA franchise.

Full press release below.

Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) today announced that EA SPORTS™ FIFA 16 delivers Innovation Across the Entire Pitch in gameplay, helps all fans Compete at a Higher Level with FIFA Trainer, and brings New Ways to Play by introducing Women’s National Teams to the franchise. At the heart ofFIFA 16, innovative gameplay* features will deliver a balanced, authentic, and exciting football experience that lets fans play their way. 

Confidence in Defending
Defenders and attackers are balanced, creating a realistic and enjoyable experience when trying to regain possession of the ball.
·         Defensive Agility brings balance in movement between attackers and defenders, driven by more than 25 gameplay feature changes to defender locomotion.
·         Defend as a Unit injects intelligence and positional-awareness into players so they can better decide between marking an opponent and covering dangerous space.
·         New Tackling Fundamentals offers new behaviors like fake and standing tackles, as well as full-body challenges and the ability to bridge out of sliding tackles when caught out of position.

Control in Midfield
In midfield, two game-changing features make the battle in the middle of the pitch as important as it is in real football.
·         Interception Intelligence gives players the smarts to close passing channels and shutting down options.
·         Passing with Purpose offers a new driven pass to play sharp, incisive passes so you can find teammates with precision.

Moments of Magic
FIFA 16 gives fans the tools they need to create thrilling moments in attack.
·         No Touch Dribbling gives players the option to let the ball run to buy time, create separation, feint, and blow by the defender in the final third. A feature inspired by the motion capture of Lionel Messi, it changes the way players attack.
·         Clinical Finishing provides variety in shooting and more exciting goals than ever before.  

“This year we’re looking at every single role on the pitch, evaluating where we wanted to innovate with all the feedback from fans, and setting out to develop the most balanced and exciting football game in the long history of the EA SPORTS FIFA franchise,” said David Rutter, VP and GM, EA SPORTS FIFA. “Whether fans prefer short and precise passes through the middle, or getting it outside and whipping in crosses, the beauty ofFIFA 16 is that it offers fans the freedom to play their way and find success on the pitch.”

Compete at a Higher Level
Regardless of skill level, everyone will have a chance to Compete at a Higher Level by utilizing the EA SPORTS FIFA Trainer, a ground-breaking in-game training system which uses the context of the game to recommend options to the player. Fans can now learn as they play with an optional graphic overlay (HUD) which prompts them with gameplay options depending on their position on the pitch and Trainer level. The trainer recommendations will progress as the level of the trainer increases, which can be set to automatic or controlled manually. Basic commands get you started, while deeper hints will improve the game of the most skilled fans. 

New Ways to Play
With all New Ways to Play, FIFA 16 will feature 12 Women’s National Teams for the first time in franchise history. Teams from Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the United States of America will all represent their respective federations in several FIFA 16 game modes including Kick Off, an Offline Tournament, as well as Online*** Friendly Matches.
