Origin Store for Microsoft Windows on 13 September 2011, though the

Gameplay: A
"trinity" of major gameplay changes have been implemented in FIFA 12;
these are the Impact Engine, Tactical Defending, and Precision
Dribbling.In development for several years, the Impact Engine improves
collision variety, accuracy, and momentum preservation. A new advanced
procedural animation system is used along with collision physics to
produce different results depending on the players and physical forces
involved. This affects all players, so even those off the ball may have
collisions. The Impact Engine has been cited as a game changer, making
FIFA 12 less structured and synthetic than its predecessors, and has
been described by producer David Rutter as the biggest technological
change to the series since the transition to the current generation of
consoles.The Impact Engine also directly affects injuries sustained by
players during a match.The new Tactical Defending system aims to change
the approach to defending by placing equal importance on positioning,
intercepting passes and tackling. When defending there will be more of
an emphasis on slowing attackers down and containing them, and
pressuring them into making mistakes. This is intended to be a more
manual form of defending, requiring greater timing and precision when
compared to the defensive "press" system used in previous FIFA games.The
old system, now dubbed "legacy defending", where a button press causes
an AI player to home in on the player in possession of the ball, can
still be used offline, and in online friendlies and custom unranked
matches.
