FIFA 17 taking big step with cinematic single-player story mode

While EA Sports FIFA is the most popular sports video game franchise worldwide, and annually one of the biggest-selling video games period, it's gone through a long stretch having arguably failed to introduce anything innovative as far as new ways to play.

That's about to change with FIFA 17. For the first time the series will feature a cinematic single-player story mode and it's called "The Journey."

In the mode you play as 17-year-old Alex Hunter and can choose any EPL club to join. Playing time on the pitch depends on the rating with the Manager, and the story will adapt to the events that take place.
