EA Sports Football Club Announced
At the Electronic Arts press conference this afternoon in Los Angeles, the company announced a new live service titled EA Sports Football Club. This service aims to bring together FIFA fans from around the world to foster the online community beginning with FIFA 12.
EA Sports Football Club will constantly provide new content based on real-world soccer events, will allow you to connect and compete with friends, and more. EA says everything that happens within your games in FIFA 12 will be reflected online. You'll earn experience points, can track progress of your friends, accept challenges, and keep track of your status on easportsfootball.com. You can link your experience with social networks such as Facebook to brag about your accomplishments.
Through EA Sports Football Club fans can also support their favorite teams in Support Your Club, where you can compete against rival clubs within FIFA 12. Earning club points raises your rank in Support Your Club League Tables. Virtual league tables are changed each week for new challenges.
The service is free and will become available when FIFA 12 launches this fall on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
