FIFA 16 News Roundup #33

This week’s news roundup post will cover all the news and updates regarding FIFA 16 for the past two weeks as we had to skip last week’s roundup due to internal issues.

The Community Week kicked off in FUT 16 this weekend and to celebrate this event all players received a free FUT Draft Token that can be claimed by logging to your account via web app or console until tomorrow evening.

Moreover, throughout the week, there will be a new tournament to play both in Online or Single-Player FUT. Special pack offers won’t miss as well, as there will be pack promos everyday, all week.
