The first announcement out of EA’s press conference at Gamescom is a new entry in the FIFA Street franchise, in development at EA Canada in Vancouver.
The new game (simply titled “FIFA Street” at this stage), will feature the precision dribbling feature and new player impact engine from FIFA 12, as well as new wallplay and “street ball control” unique to the new game.
Included are 35 environments, from London to Tokyo and Barcelona, and EA are teasing new “social connected modes” to be revealed later in the year which are the “first of their kind” . EA Sports Season Ticket owners will get early access, and the game also hooks into the new Football Club announced earlier in the year.
EA have described the game as “authentic, fun and unlike any other street title we’ve ever created”, and it’s pegged for an early 2012 release.

The first 2 FIFA Streets were absolutely brilliant I still play them sometimes on my PS2, never bought the third one as the graphical change was one of the most ridiculous moves ever and the demo didn’t do enough for me gameplay wise.
