The global TV ad, created by Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam, plunges gamers into the heart of the virtual field to depict how the latest game in the FIFA franchise is so immersive fans can “feel the emotion of every tackle, save and goal”.

The campaign kicks off with a 2 minute 15 second film, which will air during the broadcast of Manchester United versus Queens Park Rangers this Sunday (14 September).
