This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
FIFA 14 for PlayStation 4
FIFA 14 emphasises carefully constructed attacks. Protect the Ball lets you shield possession, Precision Movement gives players more weight, and Pure Shot links the run-up to the strike. Real Ball Physics makes direction, spin and speed visibly depend on the contact. A match is therefore not only about sprinting: choosing positions, creating space and timing a pass or shot are just as important.
You can play individual matches, build a career as player or manager, and contest tournaments with licensed clubs and national sides. Skill Games practise passing, dribbling and finishing in short tasks. Team Management adjusts formations, roles and substitutions. Historical network features, including Ultimate Team and online seasons, have since ended and are not promised as playable; the offline content on the disc is the basis for this used copy.
This PlayStation 4 release uses the technically expanded version for the newer console generation. Animation, stadium presentation and crowd behaviour are richer than on older systems, without making it a later remaster. The standard disc and actual product title are decisive; digital extras or used codes are not treated as included.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 4 games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
FIFA 14 for PlayStation 4 was originally released without a printed manual. This edition therefore does not come with a separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item from the original packaging is missing.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of FIFA 14
EA Sports released FIFA 14 in September 2013 for the established consoles; PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions followed with the launch of those systems. Lionel Messi again led the presentation. The game built on FIFA 13 while revising shooting, shielding and body movement. Pure Shot and Real Ball Physics were intended to make well-created chances finish visibly differently from rushed attempts made from poor balance.
The move to a new console generation also made FIFA 14 a historical turning point. PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 used the familiar technology with the new gameplay rules, while PlayStation 4 and Xbox One used EA Sports Ignite for extra animation, livelier crowds and more nuanced team play. Nintendo Wii received a Legacy Edition focused mainly on squads and kits. EA closed FIFA 14 online services on 18 October 2017, so local and other offline content is now the relevant material.
