Australians can get their soccer on with the release of FIFA 15 this week for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and 3DS. Australian player Tim Cahill will star on the cover alongside Lionel Messi.

EA has promised that the game will strive for even more realism, with the addition of shirt pulling, player-specific movement, and more finesse moves. Dribbling the ball will now take into account balance and positioning. In addition, there will be a number of new stutter and dodge moves which gives players more opportunities to beat defenders.

Players in-game will also act more like their real-life counterparts. For example, Lionel Messi will now favor his left foot as he does in person. The game will also feature the real-world goal-line technology that was used in this year's World Cup.

For those who would prefer to try the game out before picking up a copy, EA released a demo earlier this month. Xbox One owners were also given the opportunity to try the game early via EA Access a week ahead of the game's release. For more details on games out this week, check out the full list below.
