FIFA Soccer 97 is a sports simulation offering several distinct ways to play. Matches can be approached as either a straightforward action experience or a more detailed simulation, with rules like fouls, injuries, and offsides being adjustable.
The presentation features commentary from John Motson and Andy Gray, with Des Lynam hosting segments between matches. Player animations are captured from David Ginola using a technology called MotionBlending, and the game includes full interactive replays.
Beyond standard outdoor matches, a 6 versus 6 indoor mode is available. Players can engage in league or cup tournaments, practice separately, and utilize various multiplayer options.
