FIFA 15 Ultimate Team offers players the ability to produce a soccer squad of their own design from a pool of real-world players. Players then use those teams to play against each other and the computer in order to win points and digital currency within the game that can be used to improve the team.

This game is entirely free to play, and it is highly advanced from a technical standpoint. This game is a crucial piece of the gaming collection for those who truly love the game of soccer.

Players will start by managing their team, so the game has elements of depth and overarching importance beyond the mere act of playing a quick game. As players build up their team and add value to their roster, they also increase the chemistry between the individual players on the team. This helps them play better, so teams that have been together longer are more likely to meld well.

Buying and selling players is a big part of this game, and many players will find that they can optimize their team by focusing on maximizing the relationship between their players.

Like most mobile games, this is a slightly stripped down version of the full FIFA 15 that is available for consoles. The Ultimate Team game type is quite popular in the franchise, so that alone has been ported into this app. That specific game type has been further broken down into several modes, which include quick play, championships, and challenge plays. The app also allows players to essentially reenact real-world games as they happen.

One of the most interesting aspects of this version is that players who are more keen on the managerial side of the game can opt for fast simulations. With this option, players don't actually control their team directly, but instead they make decisions from the sidelines like an actual coach. This is an excellent way for players to practice their ability to watch the entire field at once.

There are an included five difficulty settings to select from, so players of all skill levels will enjoy the game. The interface for this game is exquisite, and the menus are easy to use and very navigable.

The gameplay itself is yet another victory for the FIFA franchise. The players respond to commands right away, and the animations are convincing and frequent. For this version, players will notice new dribbling techniques and defensive tactics that have been added since the previous version.

Since this is a game for the Android platform, it has to incorporate controls that use the touchscreen, and there are two systems for controlling the gameplay. The first uses typical touchscreen gestures to control the action, and the second uses a virtual joystick. Both are equally effective, so players will have to decide which they prefer.
