EA's huge new soccer sim FIFA 16 Ultimate Team is now available on Android - shortly following its iOS launch yesterday. You can grab it from Google Play as a free download.

It's all about making a dream team of millionaire ball booters by hiring, firing, trading, and buying real-world players. Then, you'll take your team onto the pitch and play a good old fashioned game of kickity ball.

The on-pitch stuff has been improved with a new engine, better player AI, a new control option, and even the choice to just automate the games because actually playing football is for babies, am I right?

You'll need a lot of space (1.4GB) and a persistent internet connection to play. And you'll need a fancy new Android gizmo. Here's the list of recommended devices, straight from EA:

  • Motorola Nexus 6
  • HTC Nexus 9
  • HTC M8
  • Asus Nexus 7 2nd Gen
  • Samsung Galaxy S6
  • Samsung Galaxy S6 edge
  • Samsung Galaxy S5
  • Samsung Galaxy Alpha
  • Samsung Galaxy Note Edge
  • Sony Ericsson Xperia Z2 Tablet
  • Sony Ericsson Xperia Z3
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • HTC Nexus 4, LG G2

Got one of them, or something equally powerful? Then go get the game.
