In FIFA 17 you can play through "The Journey" with a new game mode where you play as rising star Alex Hunter as he tries to break into the Premier League and deal with challenges on and off the pitch.
The mode is made possible with the Frostbite engine that can render on the pitch and off using an in game engine.
You are in charge of your story off the pitch and when you are on the pitch you will need to deliver the right performance to get ahead.
In a new video we learn more about how this will work. It is an interesting new story mode, but you will not be able to create a player to use in it. Instead you are in charge of a player EA chose and you must make decisions for him and control the outcomes.
