Fifa 13 comes out on September 28th; pre-orders incentives announced


Electronic Arts announced today that EA SPORTS is offering an exclusive FIFA 13 Ultimate Edition that will supply fans with 24 FIFA Ultimate Team gold packs to kick-start their season, and its most extensive global pre-order incentive in the history of the FIFA franchise. FIFA 13 Ultimate Edition will be available to purchase one day only—September 28, 2012—the first day FIFA 13 is available in retail stores throughout Europe.
Fans that purchase the FIFA 13 Ultimate Edition will receive 24 FIFA Ultimate Team Gold Packs—one per week for 24 weeks with a total value of over £15 —to help build an ultimate team of football superstars. FIFA Ultimate Team brings the massive FIFA online community together with fans building, managing and competing with their ultimate football team from the world’s best players in FIFA 13. Each gold pack is a mix of 12 items, including players, contracts, stadiums, managers, staff, fitness, healing, balls, kits, and badges. Gold Packs consist of players rated 75+ in-game, and include one rare item, such as enhanced player attributes, longer contracts, and the most coveted players. The FIFA 13 Ultimate Edition is available only through pre-order or on September 28.
The two FIFA 13 pre-order incentives are game-changing experiences that offer EA SPORTS Football Club benefits, or an exclusive adidas All-Star Team featuring Barcelona and Argentina superstar Lionel Messi, to fans who pre-order FIFA 13 or FIFA 13 Ultimate Edition on PS3, X360 and PC.
