FIFA 14 bundled free with Xbox One

UPDATE: An Xbox One/FIFA 14 bundle will retail for £429.99 in the UK and Europe – the same price as the Xbox One base unit.

Customers who pre-order Microsoft’s upcoming Xbox One console will receive a full game download of FIFA 14 while stocks last. 

Microsoft announced the news at its Gamescom 2013 press conference this morning. It also confirmed that FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Legends mode will be exclusive to Xbox One and Xbox 360.

MCV reports that Xbox owner Microsoft has turned to FIFA publisher Electronic Arts in a bid to spark interest in upcoming console Xbox One.

At Gamescom this morning, an Xbox One/FIFA 14 tie-up will reportedly be announced in a bid to win over European gamers. The move is apparently designed to make Xbox One appear better value for money as it currently retails for £80 more than PS4.
