We'd like Fut Coins to be able to tell you about all of the Fifa coins new online features in SVR 09, but THQ is keeping most of the details under wraps for now. What we do know is that there will be new match types to play and that online play will be available on the Wii version of the game for the first time. Downloadable content for the game will also be available, though we don't know the specifics. What we did manage to wrangle out of THQ producers was the hint that the DLC would "extend the life of the game"; it remains to be seen whether that means an extended storyline, new match modes, roster updates (our odds-on favorite), or some combination.
The story mode--dubbed Road to WrestleMania in SVR 09--will see some changes. Instead of running through a generic catchall storyline designed for any character, the stories in Road to WrestleMania mode will be specific to a handful of WWE Superstars and will feature a storyline that will take your character from the Royal Rumble all the way to his or her big match at WrestleMania. There will also be a cooperative tag-team storyline that producers are promising will have plenty of twists and turns, including the ability to decide whether you and your tag-team partner remain as a team along the way.
