This ensured that the gameplay experience was similar between each FIFA as the commentary never really changed. Martin Tyler and Alan Smith are the current commentators in FIFA and have been for many years. This is a fresh addition for FIFA players of the past. Derek Rae and Lee Dixon will be the commentary team for the UEFA modes. This will truly allow for a more immersive experience when playing the UEFA modes in FIFA 19.įinally, a new commentary package was showcased. Along with tunnel cameras, EA has shown things such as signs and massive flags showcasing the clubs.
The new trailer shows these in full force. In previous trailers for FIFA 19, new cutscenes and crowd interaction were teased. This would be a great way to promote FIFA esports to the football world. It would not surprise anyone to see UEFA take part in these events with branding, patrons, and trophy designs throughout the competitive scene. In addition to this, the massive deal that EA struck with UEFA could see the change of events.
The professional players could also be playing in a Champions League-themed setting when playing their competitive matches. There are rumors of a potential Champions League tournament in FIFA 19 Ultimate Team. With EA not confirming a lot of things to do with Ultimate Team (yet), there are a lot of questions surrounding UEFA’s role in Ultimate Team. This is similar to the World Cup mode in FIFA 18. This mode allows players to simply play through the new UEFA competitions without having to worry about things such as player fitness or squad rotation. The Champions League, Europa League, and Super Cup will be available to play in their own modes. The video that EA released confirms a new mode in FIFA 19. This will allow for a more realistic setting when playing FIFA 19 with your friends. You can now play with all of the new kick off modes in a Champions League, Europa League, or Super Cup setting. With the introduction of the new kick-off style modes in FIFA 19 comes UEFA Competitions.
If you haven’t seen the pack opening animation for FIFA 19, then that is it. In the video, a pack is opened, and a Champions League-themed Neymar card come out of the pack. This was released during the showcase of the new Kick-off modes. Ultimate Team is briefly mentioned, but we know that there will be Champions League and Europa League-themed items in Ultimate Team. This may correlate with the new broadcast package, which I will talk about later. This shows that in certain scenarios, FIFA recognizes the previous accomplishments of each club.
He talks about the Champions League and how fans expect a lot from the club, so he must perform. Along with this, Alex Hunter is shown in an interview. The title for the new iteration of The Journey is “The Journey: Champions.” This is indicating that the new storyline will be heavily based on the Champions League competition. The Journey is shown in the small teaser video. This is great for Career, however, it doesn’t add any key features to the mode like players have been asking for. Finally, Cristiano Ronaldo is shown juggling a Champions League ball, which could be a transfer showcase scene. Alternatively, new graphics will show up in the ‘news’ tab of Career Mode, showing the best players from each team in a face-off scenario. This is said to only happen after players have won the competition in Career Mode. Specifically, players posing with the Champions League trophy.
Scenes coming from Career Mode were shown. These modes are showcased in the video that EA released on Thursday. UEFA Competitions will be showcased in all modes, as listed previously. The official statement from EA reads: “Experience the spectacle of European nights in FIFA 19 with UEFA Champions League, Europa League, and Super Cup integration throughout multiple game modes.” Modes Career Mode The competitions contain their very own appearance packages, with realistic graphics and stadium accents. However, with the UEFA Euros being next season, EA may introduce that competition later in the FIFA 19 cycle. This includes Career Mode, The Journey, and Ultimate Team.
