EA press release confirms FIFA 14 for Vita, don't get any hopes up

EA's press release for all the shiny new features in the next-gen FIFA 14 also mentions portable versions, but only in passing, and only really confirming what we already knew on the release list.

FIFA 14, developed at EA Canada, will release worldwide within the next 12 months on Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, and is available for pre-order** now at http://www.origin.com and other retailers. A version of FIFA 14 will also release on the Xbox 360® games and entertainment system with Kinect™ from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system with PlayStation Move support, Windows® PC, Nintendo Wii™, Nintendo 3DS™, PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system, PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, and PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system in North America on September 24 and worldwide on September 27. FIFA 14 on mobile will be available on iPhone®, iPad®, and iPod® touch as well as Android devices this fall. Other mobile platforms will be revealed later.
Don't expect anything other than a barebones update for the Vita, if there was anything to talk about, you might think EA or Sony might just have mentioned something during their E3 presentations.
