Free FIFA 14 on Xbox One only with Day One Edition preorders

Microsoft clarifies that bundled copies of FIFA 14 will only come with preorders of a European Xbox One Day One Edition.

 

Microsoft has clarified that only European preorders of the Xbox One Day One Edition will be eligible for a free copy of FIFA 14 when the console launches this November.

During Gamescom 2013, Microsoft announced that all Xbox One preorders in Europe would receive a download code for the latest iteration of EA's long-running football series.

Microsoft has not confirmed whether a similar promotion will take place in North America.

"Had a few questions on this so wanted to clarify: FIFA 14 will only come free with Xbox One Day One Edition pre-orders, while stocks last," tweeted Xbox community manager Graeme "AceyBongos" Boyd earlier today.

"If you have already preordered a Day One Edition Xbox One, or preorder one from now on while stocks last, you will receive FIFA 14 free."

Amazon UK has currently run out of its current allocation of Day One Edition preorders, but other major retailers still have stock. The Day One Edition of the Xbox One comes with a custom commemorative controller and a code to unlock an exclusive Day One Achievement.

"Another important note--the Day One Edition Xbox One FIFA 14 offer is valid in Europe, this holiday, while stocks last," added Boyd.

The Xbox One will launch this November for £429/€499/$499.

Microsoft says IllumiRoom tech too expensive for Xbox One

Microsoft's projector and Kinect combination would cost the average consumer "thousands of dollars."

 

Microsoft's IllumiRoom, the prototype technology that mixes a Kinect sensor with projectors to paint your living room with effects, is unlikely to be released to consumers.

"I wouldn't expect you'll see that," said Xbox One director of product planning Albert Penello to Ausgamers during Gamescom 2013 in August.

Penello explained that the prototype hardware currently costs too much for the average consumer.

"It's really super-neat if you're in the lab and you've got Microsoft money and you could totally set up this awesome lab, but… we looked at it, but for an average customer it's, like, thousands of dollars [for the set up]."

In April, Microsoft's original pitch for the device said that "IllumiRoom envisions a next-generation gaming console with a projector that sits on your coffee table and surrounds your television with projected light." The device would project light around your television screen to convey effects, such as shaking when guns are fired, or having falling snowflakes appear to bounce off furniture in the room.

A five-minute video of the technology showed IllumiRoom working with Gearbox's Borderlands and Valve's Portal.
