FIFA 08 is the latest installment of Electronic Arts' series of football video games. Developed by EA Canada, it is published by Electronic Arts worldwide under the EA Sports label. It was released on all popular gaming formats in September 2007 in Europe and Australasia, and in October 2007 in North America. The Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions of the game feature an improved game engine with superior graphics and different commentators, and are dubbed "next-generation" by Electronic Arts. On all other platforms - including the PC - the game utilises an older engine. The Nintendo DS version features fewer teams, stadiums, game modes and kits due to the limitations of the machine's storage medium.

The tagline for the game is "Can You FIFA 08?". <ref>http://fifa08.ea.com/ChooseTerritory.aspx</ref> The theme song is "Sketches (20 Something Life)" by La Rocca, from the album The Truth.
