The Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) has joined forces with Mythical Games to create a new mobile football video game for iOS and Android. The game, called ‘FIFA Rivals,’ will be free-to-play and will feature in-game and web marketplaces, as reported by Variety.
According to an official description, “In ‘FIFA Rivals,’ gamers will have the unique opportunity to create and manage their very own football club. Players can build, level up, and enhance their lineups, and then compete against other players in real-time PvP arcade-style gameplay.”
