EA Sports Announces FIFA Online

Just last week the PC browser based game Tiger Woods PGA Tour Online launched its open beta. Earlier today EA Sports revealed the next in the line of free-to-play online games with FIFA Online. Registration for the closed beta has started and the game will open to everyone come June 2010. Sign up for consideration at the official website. Also the first eight screenshots can be found in the gallery.

EA SPORTS FIFA Online will offer an authentic football experience with 30 licensed leagues, 500 clubs and more than 15,000 players. During the first closed beta stage beginning February 3, the game will feature a 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa tournament mode and a control system that uses the mouse only. At the second stage of closed beta, the game will feature a League Mode that enables fans to manage and compete as their favorite football club, and the ability to play online matches. FIFA Online will enable football fans and gamers to build their favorite club into their dream team by developing or acquiring players, upgrading skills, and getting unique apparel by earning in-game currency to acquire items or through micro-transactions. Additional content will be designed for the game based on feedback by fans.
