EA have confirmed that FIFA 11 will hit shelves in North America on 28th of September and Europe on October 1st.

This news will come as no surprise to most BUT, an all new feature that will surely spark the interest of many is EA’s all new ‘Creation Center’.

Hit the jump for screenshots and to read all about it.

EA SPORTS unveiled today a new feature called Creation Centre that will provide football fans with the tools to customize content in FIFA 11 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 in new ways. Craft your own football player and create the team of your dreams using a web-based application at www.easportsfootball.com. Create a player by choosing his appearance, accessories and attributes and then create an original team with a distinctive crest and kits, complete with home stadium.

Fans will be able to share their created players and teams with friends and download into their console to play online, in Tournaments and in Kick-Off matches in FIFA 11. In addition, fans can choose player attributes and manage their created team’s formations and tactics right from the web. Creation Centre will launch when FIFA 11 is available in stores on Sept. 28 in North America and Oct. 1 in Europe and Asia.

“Having the ability to customize content in FIFA 11 to the degree where you are creating players and teams, choosing player attributes and managing team tactics effortlessly from the web opens up a world of possibilities of original content that fans will be able to create,” said David Rutter, Producer of FIFA 11 on Xbox 360 and PS3. “Creation Centre will perfectly compliment the official league and team licenses that are the hallmark of the FIFA franchise.”

So what about us Europeans then? In the same statement EA also confirmed they would announce a release date for the rest of world once the World Cup is over.

An educated guess then, taking into account US release dates are midweek, would suggest we will get the game October 1st. That rings more true when you see the header pic, which is a scan taken from the new Gamestation catalogue.

Not long until we find out.

In this latest video installment Gary talks us through players work rates and how you will see players such as Mascherano will work very hard in defense, but not come forward very often for attacks. In contrast when Ronaldo is asked to defend he will not be coming back to help out very often.

With NBA Elite (release dictated by the NBA) listed as October 5th and EA announcing MMA will be released on October 19th, the smart money was on FIFA 11 to be brought forward as EA would not want to release three sports games in one month.

Both Gamestop and Amazon have listed FIFA 11 for a September 28th release but Best Buy still has it down for October 19th.

Nothing has been confirmed by EA thus far.

With the news of different teams playing according to how they do in real life and different teams playing different styles there is no doubt this will put smiles on the faces of many.
