MS prepares FIFA-branded XBL cards

MCV Staff 7th September 2011 Business News

Microsoft is to lend the FIFA branding to two new Xbox Live Points Cards.

The first SKU will offer both 12 months Xbox Live Gold membership as well as 800 Microsoft Points. The second is a 2100 MSP card.

Both carry the image of FIFA 12’s UK cover stars Wayne Rooney and Jack Wilshere.

Though the Points can of course be spent on anything on Xbox Live, the branding encourages consumers to put them toward their FIFA 12 Ultimate Team collection.

FIFA 12 will be released on more or less every format in the UK on September 30th. Former DLC add-on Ultimate Team will now be offered as a free download.
