Real Madrid Forms Hi-Tech Partnership With EA Sports

EA Sports added another powerful soccer team to their ranks today, as they announced a partnership with Real Madrid C.F. The three-year agreement will see EA Sports become the exclusive video game provider for the club, and Real Madrid players will have more interaction than ever with the FIFA series of games.

As a result, there will be a FIFA 16 tournament amongst the Real Madrid players, and fourteen of the most popular players on Madrid had their heads 3D scanned so that their features are more realistic in gameplay. The video below shows players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema becoming digitalized.
