Update

Whilst lasts years iteration had online capabilities, you couldn’t match up with your friends. instead, matches were random. This may have been, in part down to Nintendo’s lack of any kind of online infrastructure. Thankfully, with the imminent arrival of the Nintendo Switch Online service this will all change.

Finally, in the year 2018 we will be able to play games of Fifa with our friends, anywhere in the world, from the comfort of our own living rooms.

What a time to be alive!
