The full lineup for FIFA 16’s official soundtrack was revealed by EA Sports today, featuring the likes of Of Monsters and Men, Beck, Icona Pop, and more.
“FIFA has traditionally been gaming's foremost international showcase for new artists of every genre,” said worldwide executive of music and marketing at EA Steve Schnur, “and with FIFA 16, we’ve once again created a soundtrack that will enable millions of fans worldwide to discover new music they might have never heard otherwise. Artists like Kygo and Aurora from Norway, X-Wife from Portugal, Bomba Estereo from Colombia, The Very Best from Malawi and the UK, Baiana System from Brazil and Raury from America do more than just enhance a great game. FIFA 16 represents globalized music as its very best.”
San Francisco-based DJ-producer Slaptop appears on FIFA 16’s soundtrack, but he will also be the man in charge of the music for “Goals of the Week,” a weekly video segment from EA Sports that highlights the best in-game goals found online each week.
