The development team at FIFA 15 is ready to offer gamers a chance to pick up the all-new pink version of some of the best players in the football sim who were voted by the fan community as the winners of the Futties, the new awards that celebrate the best performers in Ultimate Team.

The in-form players will be available in a few hours and gamers will be able to pick up a lot of stars, with a focus on attackers and midfielders with scoring potential and with no defenders in sight.

The official announcement says that the award winners for FIFA 15 are:

- Lloris for goalkeeper, with his 88 overall rating;

- midfielders: Yaya Toure at 90, Quaresma with an 84 rating, Ronaldinho rated at 82, Eriksen at 88, Bale with a rating of 90, Gundogan evaluated at 85, and Reus at 88;

- attackers: Sturridge at 85, Doumbia with a rating of 84, Cavani and Rooney, both evaluated at 90.

It is unclear whether EA Sports has plans to introduce more in-form pink players for Ultimate Team in the coming weeks or if only the winners of the Futties will be delivered in this way.

Still no details about how the mode will work in FIFA 16

Ultimate Team has emerged as the most engaging of the modes included in the football sim over the past few years, but the development team is not yet willing to say how it will evolve for the coming installment.

The core features of FIFA 16 are updated with more options for defensive players, including a team-based set of moves, better options for passing in midfield and more shot options plus no touch dribbling for attackers.

The Ultimate Team experience is set to be more secure, with the team trying to make sure that gamers are not affected by attacks, and more balanced, with a variety of players offered to make sure that there are plenty of ways to build a competitive team.

FIFA 16 will be launched on September 24 and can be best enjoyed on the PC, the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One.

Older home consoles will get access to Legacy versions that will not have some of the core features of the sim.
