New FIFA 13 video shows First Touch Controls

FIFA 13 is almost here, and football fans all over the world (or soccer, for all Yanks out there), and the excitement is palpable.

EA Sports has been releasing a lot of new info, recently. Just check our news feed, it’s like a FIFA overload. Anyway, they’ve now released a new video for their upcoming footy sim.

The video shows the First Touch Controls of the game, one of the major new features in this year’s installment. From what we’re seeing and the little we’ve played in the demos and trials, the first touch controls really do affect the gameplay plenty and the authenticity has been taken to an all new level.

Have a look above to see what it’s really like.
