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 on April 15, 2014 in North America, April 17 in Europe and Australia, and April 24 in Japan, as was the case with the 2010 edition.

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. For the first time in the history of World Cup video games the entire qualification series will be playable. The 2010 version only presented the UEFA and CONMEBOL groups in their true to life form. 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 (the latter two integrated with EA Sports Football Club) from the 2010 edition will be returning.

Teams and venues

The game contains all of the 203 national teams that took part in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification process. The national teams of Bhutan, Brunei, Guam, Mauritania and South Sudan, all of which did not participate in World Cup qualifying, will not be featured 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.[2]

Soundtrack

Currently, two songs has been confirmed for the game;[citation needed] with additional songs yet-to-be announced:

Song title Artist Year released
"Dare {La La La)" Shakira 2014
"The World is Ours" David Correy 2013

Additionally, the game will feature EA Sports Talk Radio, featuring game-related commentary by Andy Goldstein, Ian Darke, Michael Davies and Roger Bennett.[citation needed]

Criticism

Due to the unavailability of the game on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, there has been criticism surrounding the development of the game. There are no plans to bring the game to these consoles due to "prohibitively low next-gen adoption rates" in certain markets, most notably Brazil, the World Cup hosts.[3][4]
