Senior producer at EA, Todd Batty said in a statement, “When developing FIFA Mobile, we focused on giving players the most exciting parts of football in quick and fun bursts while prioritising gameplay and engaging, new ways to play FIFA on-the-go. This meant building a game that was optimised for the mobile player resulting in a fun and social game that loads quickly, runs smoothly on a wider range of devices, and has a small download size relative to the depth of features and content in the game.”
Housing most of the features from Console/PC Platform, the mobile version also comes with some unique modes. For example, the all new ‘Attack-Mode’ which is new turn-based, asynchronous multiplayer mode that helps you attack like a pro.
