The world's biggest football game is set to get a huge update to be available after the Champions League final at the end of May
EA Sports has finally announced its plans for the release of a downloadable FIFA 18 World Cup mode that will be free to access for those who own this season's title.
This summer's World Cup in Russia promises to be one of the biggest and best tournaments yet with some very tasty looking games scheduled for June and July.
To tie-in with the tournament, EA Sports revealed on Monday that it would be releasing a new expansion for FIFA 18 rather than a standalone FIFA World Cup 2018 game.
The 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia download expansion will be released on Wednesday May 29 and lets players pick any of the 32 qualified nations to attempt to win the tournament using players who will be involved in Russia this summer.
"The 2018 FIFA World Cup update will deliver a complete and official tournament experience through official including authentic teams, stadiums, kits, badges, official match ball and the official winner’s trophy," a statement released on Monday said.
In September, Spanish commentator Manolo Lama had confirmed that he was set to record extra commentary for the expansion, telling Radio COPE that "I have to record it for FIFA World Cup in December, I think it will be out in February or March".
Yehaaaaaw.
