It has been hinted that EA Sports will be announcing a new game in January, but no other details were made available. Or were they?

Working off of a tip from one of our readers, Ponza, we were able to make a few educated guesses and believe that EA Sports will be announcing a FIFA Arcade game next month to kick off the New Year. Now before we go any further, let me emphasize that this is only a rumor as of now, but these are the facts:

• EA Sports will be announcing a new game in January [via Twitter]
• The announcement comes the EA Sports Community Manager from Vancouver
  • The same studio that developed NHL 10 and FIFA 10
  • The same studio that released an Arcade version of NHL with the game NHL 3 vs. 3
• 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa is coming soon

Lastly, here is a survey that EA Sports was conducting, paying attention to what most of the questions relate to, downloadable games and soccer.
