FIFA 17 also features team managers for the first time, with Jose Mourinho coming on stage to talk about his video game counterpart. Other managers so far mentioned to feature in the game include Arsene Wenger of Arsenal and Mauricio Pochettino of Tottenham Hotspurs. Including real life managers could potentially introduce some new problems for FIFA 17, however, as unlike players, managers aren't restricted by 'transfer windows'. If anything, the constant sacking and hiring of managers throughout the fifa 17 coins season is just as compelling a story as the football on the pitch, so it will be interesting to see if FIFA 17 gets updated with managers moving teams.

There are plenty of new gameplay features too, with new penalties and throw-ins, with new physical interactivity technology that's said to give you more control on the pitch. Free kicks are having a much needed revamp, too. You'll now be able to re-position the player striking the ball, opening up your options for taking Payet-esque screamers. By moving the player around you'll have the option to strike the ball in different ways, such as with more curl or even with the outside of the boot to really give the opposing goalkeeper something to think about.

We now have confirmation that the Frostbite will be the engine used, too. Thanks to the new trailers, we can clearly see that Frostbite is up-front and centre, with EA already promoting its new engine. As you can see from the video below, the trailer reveals a little bit of the game, detailing what you can expect to do once the game releases. The Frostbite engine has been said to bolster the levels of realism and presentation of the game, helping to more faithfully recreate the spectacle of the beautiful game. We can expect more information as the game nears its release in September and, as usual, there should be a demo release beforehand to look forward to, too.

Release date

Thanks to the reveal trailer we also know when the game will be available: September 29th, 2016. That's a little later than we originally expected, with the initial launch expected to be a week or so earlier. Still, that's only a month after the start of the Premier League, so you'll be able to pick the game up and play through your team's season in almost real time.
