EA to release Euro 2008

Posted on February 1st, 2008 at 10:20 EDT

Developer EA Canada has announced that they are to release yet another EURO footy game onto the multiplatform scene. They've announced that the title will be scheduled for release come April 11th, 2008.

The game is scheduled to appear on the PlayStation 3 console as well as more than 5 others. With EA's recent announcement that they still haven't quite hurdled over the PS3 development hitch, you can probably expect this game to still play just fine, much like FIFA 08.

“Our game, UEFA Euro 2008, celebrates the passion fans have for their national teams by capturing all of the national rivalries in-game, and enabling you to captain your country or play as your heroes and inspire them to glory,” said EA’s Lead Producer Simon Humber.

“We have taken our football engine to another level and added innovative new features to create a video game that captures and simulates the real-world experience and all the emotion of this tournament.”

This will be a must-buy for the hardcore footy enthusiasts, however, with FIFA 08 already out, the sales won't be as potentially strong. Look for our review of this title come release.

@RichMacca - Definitely. These type of games don't sell too well even when England have qualified. EA will have to heavilly rely upon Germany, Holland, French and Spanish sales.
