Great job EA! The more I play it, the more I enjoy FIFA 16. All these little details and stuff to unlock keeps me coming back. Something that PES (as good as the gameplay is as well) lacks.

I'm really excited about his and I have no idea why. Hopefully this means Japan's National Team is also added.

More licenses are never a bad thing, although I see no scenario in which I ever play with any of these teams.

Astronomical addition. Very excited to see the J-League. My first KONAMI game was J-League WE 97, I used to play with the Urawa Red Diamonds because they were the closest to look like Manchester United. This is great news!

I think EA had to release this info, since the J1 League spilled the beans with their own press release a while back.
