EA’s new football simulation, which is already free for Windows 8, can no longer be downloaded. See FIFA 15 OUT for Windows 8.
Finally, FIFA 14 is free for Windows 8. EA places the strongest emphasis on the Ultimate Team, while some of the other game modes are only available through in-app purchases. FIFA 14 has a fantastic game interface and a new twist (function () {(‘app-view-page-desktop’);});
This edition of Windows 8 is a ported edition for smartphones, ideal for touch devices and varies greatly in features and technical quality compared to the desktop version of FIFA 14.

Latest purchases of teams and apps in the app
FIFA 14 lets you play Ultimate Team matches, this week’s games, support for your club, penalty kicking and online modes.
The modes let you challenge other players around the world through its multiplayer feature. Try to beat them and climb the world rankings!
However, Manager, Tournament and Kick Off modes are only unlocked through in-app purchases.
As with the PC and console versions, FIFA 14 for iPhone also features Match of the Day, a feature that lets you think about all teams’ real gaming events. You can see injuries if players are in shape or change tactics; they are reflected in the game from time to time with appropriate updates to the team’s composition.
FIFA 14 for Windows 8 strongly supports Ultimate Team mode, which allows you to create and manage your virtual team. You can bid to buy and sell players who are trying to expand your team and the camaraderie between your players. And of course you can participate in games and contests with your Ultimate Team. If you win, you earn points and virtual money to spend, so you can buy new cards to improve your team.
FIFA 14 maintains 33 leagues (Serie A, La Liga, Major League), more than 600 fully licensed teams, more than 16,000 players and many more.34 stadiums, faithfully recreated in the app. And just like you can use the console version, you can get trophies and achievements by achieving certain goals.
The game interface follows the same style and design as the desktop version of the game, offering excellent usability and ability to control the menus.

New touch controls
FIFA 14 also introduces a new type of gesture-based touch, push and pressure control. The idea is interesting, but it takes some practice to feel safe with the controls. Therefore, the game contains a detailed tutorial that explains how to use the new controls. If you are not interested in using touch controls, you can control the game using the same methods with the mouse.
If you prefer the old and classic virtual pocket, you can still select it from the options menu. During our test, we felt better with this set of controls than with the new gesture-based controls.

A little better graphics, excellent soundtrack
The 3D graphics are good, but not excellent. The mechanism is definitely less powerful than the one used in the classic FIFA 14. The animations and movements of the players are a bit slow, but the game doesn’t suffer that much. However, more evenness and speed in the action would improve the title. ”
The music on the menu is good, but not new: EA has always taken care of the entire soundtrack for the FIFA franchise.
The sound effects during the game are quite average and not very different from the previous release. But the presence of the comments (in English, Italian, Spanish, German and French)makes the game more exciting.

FIFA is finally free!
FIFA 14 for Windows 8 is an innovative version of EA’s games. With the freemium method you can play a free alternative to the launch of the famous football simulator and with other available modes such as in-app purchases (manager, tournament and match) you can increase the depth of the game,
However, the available ones still present a major challenge, especially the excellent Ultimate Team and online multiplayer mode. The guides are carefully considered and available for each game mode.
The new touch controls (or via the mouse) are a big bet for EA and have a significant impact on the game. Personally, I still prefer the virtual joke game, which I still think is the best way to enjoy the rewarding game, but it’s just a matter of taste.
As we mentioned, this message is just a download of the version released on Android, iPhone and Windows Phone. It does not add more features, which would be welcome, given the greater power of a Windows 8 computer or tablet.
Despite some flaws in the sound effects, some animations and a convincing tempo, which is sometimes slow, this edition of FIFA 14 for touch devices is very good and best of all, it’s free.
In the end, the Metro / Modern FIFA 14 version is ideal for those who use a computer with insufficient access or who want to take a first strategy with the EA simulator. If you are a demanding player you should go straight to the most updated and complete version of the EA Simulator desktop.
