After the release of the "FIFA 15" demo on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PC Tuesday and the PS3 Wednesday, EA Sports has announced the PlayStation 4 version of the demo will be released "later today."

In Europe, however, the PS4 demo is having a few problems and EA is doing its best to address them.

"Our team is aware of an issue affecting some players on the PS4 and is investigating now," the game developer wrote on its Twitter page.

To play demo on Microsoft's Xbox consoles, a gamer should be or become an Xbox Live Gold member. Individuals that have Silver memberships will also be given access to the content on Sept. 16.

"The launch of the FIFA 15 Demo is like our pre-season and the first chance for millions of FIFA fans to get hands-on with the game," said Nick Channon, senior producer at EA Sports.

"The demo is an early representation and taste of this year's game, and we welcome the chance to get fan feedback on our innovations and new features."

EA is attempting to create the most realistic football game in FIFA 15, which has a lot of new features for gamers.

In the game, streaks on the grass are visible where players have slid. Wear and tear in the grass can be seen as the match goes on.

Hitting the crossbar and goalposts visibly shake the goal. Corner flags will also react to the ball, bending if hit.

The virtual athletes' faces now look true-to-life. The new character models match the real world football players' physiques. New features also include cloth physics, visible breathing and hair movement.

Players on the pitch will also have memories and emotions based on what is happening in the match. With 600 reactions, members of a team can respond to bad tackles, missed shots and great goals.

The virtual athletes have a feeling or attitude towards teammates and their opponents.

Ball physics are true-to-life, according to EA Sports. While tackling, dribbling, passing, blocking a shot or touching, the ball correctly reacts and spins accordingly.

The gamer can see the accurate spin, curl and flight of the ball after each contact.

FIFA 15 is set to launch on Sept. 25 for the PS3, PS4, PS Vita, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U and PC.
