EA Announces FIFA Street

By , About.com Guide

Electronic Arts announced today that FIFA Street is under development and is scheduled to be released next year under the EA SPORTS BIG brand. The game is being produced by Electronic Arts Canada, the same studio responsible for the FIFA Soccer franchise.

FIFA Street combines arcade action with the culture of freestyle street soccer. It is no longer good enough to simply win - Now you have to win with style.

Leading this movement are the worlds top professional players, showing off their skills and individual style in 4-on-4 match-ups against the backdrop of global venues that represent the true culture of street soccer. As the first game to support dynamic 1-on-1 encounters, beating your opponent will require skill, technique, and the careful selection of specific moves. As a gamer you’ll take on the best and be required to earn their respect, gradually building your reputation and team into an unstoppable force that leads the tide of street soccer.

"What FIFA STREET represents is a movement in soccer and a break from the modern game," says Wil Mozell, senior producer for the project. "We are stripping the sport down to its core and delivering a game that’s all about freestyle attitude and individual skill, something I believe is at the heart of every soccer fan."
