'FIFA World Cup' Video Game Launching On Netflix

A new game will be available on Netflix just in time for the FIFA World Cup.

"FIFA World Cup Launch Edition" will make its debut on June 11 and is described as a "streamlined football simulation game" where fans can "experience the pride of playing for your country, step into real-life stadiums and pull off incredible plays with the world's best athletes."

Netflix announced the news in a press release, with the game set to follow along with the tournament.

"You'll be able to play as any of the 48 teams in the tournament, travel to the 16 real-world stadiums, and take control of any of the 1,248 players in the Cup. So as the drama of the sport plays out, you can share every goal, save, and celebration right on the couch with your friends and family," the streaming service wrote.

Up to four users can play together.

Along with the United States, the game will be available in Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Austria, Australia, Belgium, Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, and Brazil.

And with that, Netflix told Variety that they will be updating the game "daily throughout the World Cup with new challenges and features tied into the real events and results of the tournament."

"Like all of Netflix's other game offerings, the game is free with a Netflix subscription and does not include any in-game purchases," the outlet added. "The game rewards you with in-game currency based on your playing habits and daily challenge completion with coins that players can then be spent to boost the stats of their team members."
