FIFA 13 Introducing Skill Games

In addition to the news on Career mode yesterday EA Sports has rolled out details on a new mode known as Skill Games. Containing 32 mini-games it offers the chance to test abilities such as shooting, passing, and dribbling with the goal to rack up a high score or beat a friends’ score.

Learn or master the fundamental skills necessary to compete at FIFA 13 in a competitive and addictive new mode.  Become a better player, faster, no matter what your skill level. Compete against yourself or friends in 32 mini-games, perfecting skills such as passing, dribbling, shooting, crossing and more. Hit targets, loft balls into cans and dribble through obstacle courses, collecting points and beating the clock as you progress through three levels to the Skills Challenge. Earn achievements, trophies, and XP while securing a global ranking and perfecting your skills.

Skill Games sounds as though it will be effective not just as a change of pace but also for training and practice purposes. Veterans of the series are comfortable with the controls and gameplay but those less experienced could use a testing ground such as this.
