The official FIFA world Cup Brazil game isn’t coming to the new consoles, which for some reason, has upset some of you. I don’t quite know why; football is stupid. Honestly though, the new versions of FIFA utilise that fancy ignite engine, making them worlds above that last gen nonsense, and it would have been nice to play out the World Cup using the sexiest versions of the FIFA engine available. Good news then!
EA has announced it’ll be adding in a separate World Cup mode to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of FIFA 14. don;t get too excited; it won’t let you play through the entire tournament, but it will add all 32 competing teams, as well as the official match ball.
This is separate from the update to FIFA 14’s Ultimate Team Mode world Cup update, which acts as a separate mode within FIFA Ultimate Team, giving players the chance to build their own squad of players from all 32 National Teams taking part in the World Cup Finals.
It’s something, though it’s not a full-fleshed set of world Cup mods that’ll allow you to relive the World Cup as it happens. If you do want to do that , you’ll have to pick up the World Cup game, available only on the old gen systems.
You may not want to though, it’s not particularly good.
“The game is minimalist and doesn’t add enough to justify the cost. Despite the lustre of the event, the game is badly put together. I cannot recommend this for anything other than a shelf adornment,” says our resident Football fundi.
The game and Ultimate Team updates will go live on May 29..and they’re both free.

Isn’t the Brazil world cup edition full price? so this is just an add-on to the original Fifa 14 on PS4?

Yes..but it’s not a full WC mode; it’s friendly matches and skins.

But I mean, they could’ve easily patched in a WC mode instead of asking full price for another edition as it’s essentially FIFA 14 at the core as the new gen consoles are getting a watered down or pseudo WC mode…or am I looking at this wrong?

What they should have done is made Fifa14 the world cup edition with the whole 32 team world cup or at worst a road to the world cup, take your teams through the qualifiers and then patched the actual world cup in, and had the full rest of the game there as well, but no they want to get a bunch of bites at the cherry.

You are calling football stupid. THAT IS PATHETIC. Rugby takes no skills seriously you pass, catch, run and tackle and thats it and rugby is a 2d Game that is played running in line with no one coming from behind and no one to pass to in front of you, this means that football players need more awareness because they must no everything coming at the from 360 degrees.

I prefer that they give this as an update on FUT rather than milking the franchise by selling a new game!! This should always be the case not just now!!! And I think you have it spot on with the ignite engine, it has changed the game a bucket load. The game actually works now, where on my PS3 I wanted to break something…. Which I did when I through my remote, missed the couch and hit out the window behind the couch… Good times
