EA’s subsequent soccer sport goes to be a bit completely different than most of its numerous sports activities releases. That’s as a result of, in contrast to FIFA or Madden, its upcoming FC Tactical is a turn-based RPG-like soccer sport that includes magical-seeming particular strikes. Weird, however intriguing!
Announced on October 11, EA Sports’s FC Tactical is a free-to-play soccer sport for cell gadgets launching in 2024. But to be clear: This new sport isn’t changing FC Mobile 24 Soccer, the pre-existing EA soccer sport on telephones that performs just like the console model. Instead, FC Tactical is one thing very completely different, described by EA in a press launch as a turn-based sport that may comprise over 5,000 genuine gamers throughout 10 leagues, together with Premier and Ligue 1.
According to EA, matches are “simulated, with turn-based alternatives” the place gamers will select to defend, assault, pull off “ability strikes,” or take photographs at scoring a aim. Screenshots reveal an interface that appears lots like different turn-based technique video games, simply as a substitute of tanks or fantasy warriors, there are soccer gamers in sports activities arenas.
EA says FC Tactical will characteristic a wide range of modes together with on-line buddy matches, ranked play, leagues, and guilds. Folks must “prepare gamers” to “grasp high-skill strikes” or unlock particular traits. That sounds lots like that is some bizarre soccer RPG, and issues solely get weirder if you have a look at among the screenshots featured on the sport’s web site and Google Play Store web page.
Some of the photographs present soccer gamers pulling off what I might describe as particular assaults, full with magical-looking visible results like flames and power pulses. I don’t count on any of those gamers are going to be summoning large monsters to assist them rating a aim, however who is aware of?
EA Sport’s FC Tactical launches subsequent 12 months. Players can pre-register by way of the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
