2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil is the official upcoming video game for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, published by EA Sports for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[1] It will be released in April 2014, as was the case with the 2010 edition.
There are no plans to bring the game to PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC due to "prohibitively low next-gen adoption rates" in certain markets, most notably Brazil (the World Cup hosts).[2][3]
Gameplay
Gameplay improvements from FIFA 14 include dribbling, an increased accuracy in passing and first-touch mechanics.
The game will feature Road to the FIFA World Cup, a mode where players can choose from 203 national teams and play through qualification and the actual FIFA World Cup. Another mode, Road to Rio de Janeiro, will allow players to compete in an online tournament across the 12 venues of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Fan celebrations have improved, including cut-ins of fans (of the player's national team) watching the game back home celebrating if the player scores.
The Captain Your Country, Online FIFA World Cup, Story of Qualifying, and Story of the Finals modes from the 2010 edition will be returning.
Features
Patriotic Presentation
Feel the support of a Nation with all-new crowd scenes including banners, flags, and seat cards in the stadium, and from Live City events in all corners of the World. Score a goal with England and hear from fans live in Trafalgar Square. Painted faces, patriotic outfits, and all-new crowd renderings bring the World Cup atmosphere to life. Stadium confetti, fireworks, and streamers contribute to the pomp and pageantry of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.[4]

A brand new auto-positioning system makes the mode accessible to new players.

Key Features
World Class Control

Penalty Kicks in the run of play now have players on the edge of the box and ready to rush at spilled shots. Also, distract the kick-taker by using Goalkeeper Antics to throw them off using a series of animations including wobbly-knees, matador, and shoot-it-there animations.

Taking physics data from the adidas Innovation Lab in Herzogenaurach, Germany, EA SPORTS FIFA development team implemented it in EA SPORTS 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil to give the Brazuca and other adidas balls true-to-life flight and grass friction in the game.

The game includes all 12 venues used at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, as well as stadiums from each qualifying region and a range of "generic" stadiums.[5]
Soundtrack
As of yet, EA Sports have not officially announced the soundtrack to this title, although the game will feature EA Sports Talk Radio, featuring game-related commentary by Andy Goldstein, Ian Darke, Michael Davies and Roger Bennett.
Criticism
Due to the unavailability of the game on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, there has been criticism surrounding the development of the game.[citation needed] As of yet, there are no plans to bring the game to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC due to "prohibitively low next-gen adoption rates" in certain markets, most notably Brazil, the World Cup hosts.[2][3]
