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 18 for Xbox One
FIFA 18 brings clubs and national teams from the 2017/2018 season to Xbox One with Frostbite presentation and The Journey: Hunter Returns. Alex Hunter continues his career, while career, tournaments, kick-off and skill games are also playable outside that story. Local matches remain possible; online services and Ultimate Team depend on current EA servers and are not promised as permanently available. Controls, player setup and edition details were therefore checked specifically for this Xbox One version.
The campaign builds each situation around clear objectives, enemies or obstacles and controls that you gradually learn to master. Difficulty comes from timing, positioning and intelligent use of available resources. Exploring, trying again and choosing another approach often achieve more than haste. The fixed content on the disc therefore matters most. Any network features are mentioned only as historical options, not as services guaranteed to work today.
This Xbox One release of FIFA 18 was checked separately for controls, presentation and delivery. The product title determines whether a regular, budget or No Manual edition is supplied. Historical network features are not promised as available; local matches, campaign or career on the disc remain the core of this version.
Region and language
Our Xbox One 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 18 for Xbox One 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 18
EA Canada developed FIFA 18; EA Sports released the Xbox One edition on 29 september 2017. Its campaign, systems and presentation gave the game a distinct place in its series. This physical copy is assessed as the original Xbox One release. Later updates, downloadable packs, remasters and sequels are not silently attributed to this disc. This keeps disc content, edition names and later services clearly separated.
This physical release preserves a defined version from its original console generation. Later expansions, patches, servers and reissues may have added or changed features, but are not attributed to this disc. Its original design choices and technical limits belong to this edition. Developer, release period and platform were therefore checked separately. Differences in controls, presentation and accessories between consoles are also stated where they affect what can actually be played.
