FIFA 15: GAME announces plans for midnight launch

GAME has outlined its plans for the launch of FIFA 15 at midnight this Friday (September 25).

The UK retailer will open more than 300 stores for FIFA super-fans to be among the first to get their hands on the football video game.

A host of footballers will make appearances in stores across the country, including Tottenham Hotspur centre back Eric Dier, who will make an appearance at GAME's store in Westfield Stratford from 3-5pm.

A freestyle footballer will also attend the Stratford store to entertain crowds leading up to launch.

Fans attending these launches will have the opportunity to win a one-on-one game against one of the footballers.
