In a matter of terrible or perfect timing, Electronic Arts announced today that it will debut the first news on FIFA 16 tomorrow.

This comes on the same day that the U.S. Department of Justice indicted 14 FIFA officials on a variety of charges, including money laundering, racketeering, and wire fraud. U.S. law enforcement says that this is only the beginning of a widespread investigation of FIFA.

Despite this tremendous blow to the core soccer organization the game is based on, EA Sports is rolling ahead with plans to promote the game. This from the official EA Sports twitter account:

    A major addition to FIFA 16 means that for the first time in the franchise there will be Women’s National Teams. The teams from twelve countries include Australia, Canada, England, Germany and the United States of America and will feature in a variety of game modes. Kick off, an Offline Tournament and Online Friendly matches will all be on offer.

    “Bringing some of the best women’s players and teams in the world to our franchise is a massive event for EA Sports, and we are equally excited about bringing millions of fans a new way to play,” says FIFA 16 producer David Rutter.

    And it turns out women aren't even slightly tricksy to animate. In a first for the series, all-new player movement has been created from motion capture sessions at EA Canada. Players from the US Women’s National Team Sydney Leroux, Abby Wambach, Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe were all drafted in to create a a brand new set of animations. Refreshingly, this is no mere tacked on addition. Entirely new player models were created using a 360 degree scanning rig and a mobile head scanning unit was taken to tournaments to capture ? features and hairstyles to recreate each of the twelve teams as authentically as possible.

    “I honestly can’t believe all of the science and technology behind the game itself, let alone getting us into the motion capture suits and eventually into the game,” says Abby Wambach from the US team. “We’re all excited to see ourselves in the game, but even more excited to see the reaction from all of the fans, including the fans of our team that maybe wouldn’t be expecting something like this from EA Sports.”
