Related Topics: FIFA, License, UEFA Champions League

EA Sports have announced FIFA 19 will be available for purchase on September 28 this year - and the new game will feature the Champions League for the first time.

It means fans have just over three months to wait until the new game drops and there is already a huge buzz because of the new European licensing, which EA managed to obtain at the expense of Konami and Pro Evolution Soccer, who had the rights for the past 10 years - according to the Sun.

In previous years, FIFA has featured European competitions in its 'Career Mode', but under the title of 'European Cup', which took away from the realism for a lot of fans.
