Also, creative director Alex Hutchinson has confirmed that the game's multiplayer mode will not be locked ehind a paywall.
"Just so it's clear: Multiplayer is for everyone who buys FC4, no need to buy anything else. There is an extra mode in DLC," he said.
The statement was made after an initial confusion that a multiplayer mode was going to be made exlcusive with the Season Pass. Fans had misinterpreted that those who bought the Season Pass would be the only ones to get multiplayer.
