Gamers have to wait for the big championships to restart

EA Sports is continuing to deliver the regular Team of the Week package for the Ultimate Team mode of FIFA 15, even if there's a lack of action in the football world, as the major leagues are still on their summer break.

This week, the first eleven include just one player who has an overall rating of more than 75, which means that he might be actually useful in someone's lineup.

The attacking line of the Team of the Week is made up of Chong Te Si, Lee Dong Go, the undisputed star at a 79 rating, and Kamara.

The midfield line offered for the Ultimate Team mode includes Fofana, Finlay, Diaz and Yeom Ki Hun.

There are three defenders selected by the EA Sports team: Fallman, Sane and Karlsson.

The goalkeeper of the Team of the Week is Hall.

Thankfully, the English Premier League is not far from its start date, and it will give EA Sports a chance to deliver a few good TOTW packages for FIFA 15 before it shifts over to the next game in the series, which is set to arrive on September 24.

FIFA 16 offers national women's teams, other improvements

Given the quality shown by teams like England, Germany, Japan or the United States during the recent Women's World Cup, gamers should be happy to know that all of them as well as eight others are part of the all-new mode that will allow them to play matches with female national teams for the first time.

Unfortunately, EA Sports is not planning to integrate them into the Ultimate Team experience in FIFA 16, although that might happen in the future.

So far the company has not talked about the most popular mode and how it plans to improve it, other than mentioning that it wants gamers to have a more secure and balanced environment.

The coming football sim also offers better mechanics for defensive and attack as well as an entirely new no-touch dribbling move inspired by cover star Lionel Messi.

FIFA 16 can be played on the PC, the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

Legacy versions are also provided for older devices, but they do not offer all the core features of the title.
