FIFA 11 out October 1

EA Sports has announced that FIFA 11 will be released for PlayStation3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS, PSP and mobile on October 1, 2010.

New in this year’s edition of the hit football video game franchise is the Creation Centre, which promises to provide football fans with the tools to customise content in FIFA 11 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in new ways.

This will include crafting your own football player and creating the team of your dreams using a web-based application at easportsfootball.com. Create a player by choosing his appearance, accessories and attributes and then create an original team with a distinctive crest and kits, complete with home stadium.

Fans will be able to share their created players and teams with friends and download into their console to play online, in Tournaments and in “Kick-Off” matches in FIFA 11.

“Having the ability to customise content in FIFA 11 to the degree where you are creating players and teams, choosing player attributes and managing team tactics effortlessly from the web opens up a world of possibilities of original content that fans will be able to create,” said David Rutter, producer of FIFA 11 on Xbox 360 and PS3. “Creation Centre will perfectly compliment the official league and team licenses that are the hallmark of the FIFA franchise.”

Another new addition this year is Custom Audio, which enables fans to assign chants for every team and league in the game. Fans can set their home club’s chants to play during player introductions, halftime, and after goals – even hearing their name echo in the stands of Old Trafford or San Siro with created chants for their Virtual Pro. Plus, players now have the ability to play music from their hard drive in game.

FIFA 11 will be available in Europe on October 1 for PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, PS2, Nintendo DS, PSP and mobile.
