Manchester United named official parter in FIFA 17
Much like FC Barcelona has made a deal with Konami for Pro Evolution Soccer 2017, the English Premier League club Manchester United has now been revealed as the official partner for EA Sports' FIFA 17.
This means that Manchester United's famous red kit will be put front and center for the new game come September 29th, with superstars such as Wayne Rooney, Memphis Depay, Jesse Lingard and recently aquired Paul Pogba leading the act. And presumably Zlatan Ibrahimovic, though we've yet to see him feature in screens.
Aditionally upcoming talent has been taken into account when forming the new RPG inspired The Journey mode for the game. Helped along by Marcus Rashford, who made his debut last year and performed above all expectations, EA aims to really capture the feeling of being a new player taking their first steps onto international top tier football.
Lastly, the series moves over to the Frostbite 2.0 game engine will ensure richer graphics than ever before, as evident by these new images sporting Red Devils. Previously FC Bayern Munich has been named a partner club with FIFA 17, remains to be seen what other clubs get signed up for partnerships such as these.
