Everton are the latest football club to partner EA SPORTS for FIFA 12. At this rate I think we’re going to have to start reporting which haven’t partnered EA Sports yet…
The deal’s announced on the Everton FC website is the same as the rest of the EA Partnerhips:
The new deal will see EA SPORTS produce an Everton FIFA 12 game sleeve that supporters can download for free from evertonfc.com.
Blues fans will also have the chance to try out FIFA 12 and play as their favourite player when a bespoke EA SPORTS FIFA gaming trailer (The Dugout) visits Goodison Park at selected fixtures throughout the season, including when Everton face Manchester United on October 29.
David Moyes’ first team squad will also have the chance to try out FIFA 12 and find out who is the best gamer when the trailer visits the Everton training ground, Finch Farm, for a Pro Player Tournament.
Nick Harford, Football Business Lead at EA SPORTS said:
“We are delighted to be broadening our involvement with Everton for the 11/12 season and are focused on giving the fans and first team alike the opportunity to participate in a number of FIFA 12 experiences.”
Everton’s Commercial Director Dave Biggar said:
“EA continue to produce the very best sports gaming and entertainment products in the world. We have enjoyed working with them in their role as an official licensee of the Premier League and we are absolutely delighted to be working with them this season on a more one-to-one basis.”
