FIFA Ultimate Team mode makes roughly three hundred times more money than the illegal diamond trade, so it’s not surprising that EA has been hard at work on the latest incarnation in FIFA 15.
In a new video FUT associate producer Marcel Kuhn explains some of the new features aspiring managers can expect, including Concept Squads, player loans and Friendly Leagues.
Concept Squads allow players to create their own potential dream team to aspire to, scouting out potential targets and testing out chemistry combinations. You upload these wishlists to the FIFA social site to share with your friends. Doesn’t sound that interesting really.
Friendly Leagues are more fun, allowing you to take on your friends in a series of matches, with goals and stats recorded for bragging rights. Player loans, meanwhile, offer the chance to grab elite players for a limited time without searching for them on the transfer market.
EA Sports confirmed earlier this week that player to player Trading would be removed from Ultimate Team, so we’ll have to wait and see whether these new features win over the fans when FIFA 15 drops this September 23.
