FIFA 2004

While not adding much to the engine used in FIFA Football 2003, the biggest new inclusions were secondary divisions, which allow the player to take lower ranked teams to promotion attempts. Gameplay has a new feature dubbed "Off the ball", which allows the control of two players at the same time for greater tactical play. Another key feature was Football Fusion, which allows owners of both FIFA 2004 and Total Club Manager 2004 to play games from the management sim in FIFA. The title sequence was filmed in St James' Park, home of Newcastle United, with the opening song being Kings of Leon's European hit "Red Morning Light".

The PlayStation 2 version of FIFA Football 2004 received a "Double Platinum" sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA), indicating sales of at least 600,000 copies in the United Kingdom.

The game was met with positive to average reception. GameRankings and Metacritic gave it a score of 84.20% and 82 out of 100 for the Game Boy Advance version; 83.67% and 83 out of 100 for the GameCube version; 82.50% and 82 out of 100 for the Xbox version; 81.74% and 84 out of 100 for the PlayStation 2 version; 80% and 80 out of 100 for the PlayStation version; 78% and 77 out of 100 for the PC version; and 73.60% and 72 out of 100 for the N-Gage version.
