In addition to users asking, “What’s new in FIFA this year?” we often hear from potential buyers who think the game is nothing more than a roster update.

This year it’s clear that EA Sports is putting forth more than just a roster upgrade as the company switches to the Frostbite Engine that runs Battlefield 1 and previously powered NHL 16 and Rory McIlroy PGA Tour last year.

FIFA 16 included a major emphasis on improving your team mates, and it was a good start, but this time around EA is improving AI and pushing boundaries with better ball control and shooting options.

In addition to a new in-game engine, FIFA 17 includes an upgraded story mode that allows you to control the destiny of a single player. Users now have more control over set pieces and new controls make it easier to shoot without airing the ball over the net or heading a cross over the top.

You can use your body to shield the ball when you are receiving a pass or trying to make some space to make a play.

Here is a breakdown of the new FIFA 17 features and how the FIFA 17 vs FIFA 16 comparison looks.

FIFA 17 Journey Game Mode

FIFA 17 Journey Game Mode

There is now a Story Mode in FIFA 17 called My Journey. You are in charge of a player who is trying to make it in the big leagues. You need to control him on and off the pitch.

Thanks to the Frostbite engine the game can render the field, the manager's office and your apartment as you try to navigate the complexities of playing on the field and making the right decisions off it.

You are Alex Hunter an up and coming player in the Premier League. You can play on any club in the league, but you cannot create your own player -- you need to control Alex.

The game will change based on your performance on the field and decisions you make off of it. This includes your career and it will influence how other characters react to you.

This mode is not in FIFA 16, and is completely new for 2016 and FIFA 17.

    Do you know any website from where I can download FIFA 17 on android or PC? I came across some emulators but they are not working

    But it doesn’t seem to be working. I tried few more websites like this: https://www.fifa17demodownload.com/download-now/

    But nothing is working. I really want to play fifa 17 on PC using emulator or origin.

    Please tell me.

    Thanks

    You shouldn’t buy fifa 17. It is exactly the same as fifa 16 but they just changed the 6 into a 7. That took them 1 year to make and they made a picture of Manuel Reus doing some weird stuff. The ultimate team became even more boring. Its hard to shoot your ball because its almost impossible to aim.
