    Schön, dass die Flanken etwas besser geworden sind.
    Aber ansonsten ist es wie die Vorgänger auch schon, einfach nicht gut. Seit der Alex Hunter Story Mode nicht mehr existiert ist der Reiz auch komplett verschwunden. Für ein Wochenende ausgeliehen und wieder zurück gegeben. Noch immer keine Empfehlung.

    Absolute garbage. Nothing has changed since last years release of Fifa 20, but what can you expect, it is a EA game.

    Possibly the worst FIFA in the franchise.
    Just plain not enjoyable, pay2win, exact same game as last year.

    Terrible, just terrible. I don't understand how they get any sales of this game with how bad it is. They haven't changed anything and it reeks of laziness and corruptness. EA don't give a sh*t about the game and only care about what's in your pocket.

    No doubt it's a GAMBLE playing FUT 21. In order to get great players you practically gotta spend a lot of money. Buying packs and not knowing what you're getting in return, that's called GAMBLING !!! It's time to BOYCOTT FUT 21 !! They're making millions and millions of money, time to KILL they're money making machine !!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played the beta and geuinely thought it was gonna be the best fifa i've played since fifa 15 only to realise it's plays completely different passing is awful, defending and tackling is non existant, 56 pace defenders catching up to 90 pace attackers still makes zero sense everything feels slow and unresponsive, goalkeepers are non existant and the referees have somehow got worse and of course it's still pay to win and gambling at the fore front of the whole game so you best have a big bank balance or be able to use mummy and daddys money, all round another garbage game that even patches won't save. Time to get rid of the frostbite engine which has made fifa **** since it was brought in!!! Expand

    How the higher ups at EA Sports sleep at night after knowing they work on a daily basis to just squeeze every possible penny out of customers' pockets is beyond me.

Even Volta was such a let down, I didn't even have any expectations and it still let me down because it had only 1.5 hours worth of playtime in the 'story mode'. Don't waste your money. You deserve better. Expand

    The game was fun for 2 whole weeks. Then the patch notes came in and i have to make goals in a way Fifa sees ir, not how i intend. The way defending is this year feels like i am managing my local u10 team with a combined IQ lower than room temperature. Career mode lover? Have fun needing to raise 23 toddlers who need to train every day just for them to get a D, Every goddamn time. VoltaThe game was fun for 2 whole weeks.

Volta was already doomed from the start,and honeslty feels like fifa 21 but with smaller fields. Pro Clubs, arguably the best gamemode if done right is still in shambles. Low improvements mixed with wrong decisions makes it easy to just say: it f*cking sucks. Expand

    Easily the single worst video game I have ever played in my entire life. The thing I find most amazing about this steaming pile of donkey **** is that a company that's got twice the resources and funding as their nearest competitors can make a game so fundamentally broken on every conceivable level.

The thing I find most amazing about this steaming pile of donkey **** is that a company that's got twice the resources and funding as their nearest competitors can make a game so fundamentally broken on every conceivable level. The game is to random and luck based to be an esport. To scripted and heavily pay to win for semi-competitive players i.e. fut champs players and it is to ridiculously silly and rage enducing to appeal to casuals. The sad part is that no matter what is said in these reviews EA will continue to make billions of this franchise every year. The company is so morally bankrupt that I'm almost certain this game breaks multiple consumer laws. If you value your mental health or your relationships and your general life I would strongly recommend not buying this game. There is not a single redeeming quality about it. I wish nothing but pain and suffering upon everyone who uses varane and hope that every EA employee involved in making this game watch their children burn alive!

    Overall 10/10 would buy next years

    Take my contribution of 0 score, for being a billion dollar company and giving us an online competitive game mode with 3 seconds delay and manipulating mechanics. Also EA, Will you ever fix menu double registering in PC version? I mean ffs, how many years you need to even fix the MENUS

    EA Sports don't care anymore!

    It is obvious that EA Sports do not care at all anymore. FIFA 21 is just a cash cow and people will buy the game every single year, and the EA Sports team know this. So why be innovative at all and actually do something about it. They just made new kits and updated the roster. Oh, and the defending is something they did not care about - it is non-existing. A

    While playing online, whoever the artificial intelligence wants is the game that wins. It doesn't matter how well you play. You may get nervous in the game. I haven't been playing for years, so I thought I'd give it a chance, and I encountered the same scene again.

    Same game as 20 but with the added bugs that makes it unplayable. 20 was the same 19, which was the same 18, and 17. Hell fifa 17 was at release less bugged than 21 6 months in. Ea needs to die

    Absolute **** EA sport's fifa ultimate team is run by a team of brain-dead monkey trying to squeeze money out of the same bloody product year after year with 0 improvements. The best piece/ and most entertaining piece of content they release the whole year is the trailer of the game. Disappoints even though expectations are non-existent

    This game is an unregulated casino for children and this company is a cancer for the gaming community.
    Rigged matches, massive delay and an unfinished game. It's 2020 and this is the current state of one of the main football videogames, licenced by FIFA. It's absolutely disgraceful. A company who runs business like this needs to prosecuted and lose their licence

    It's just unplayable. Script and momentum are controlling every single aspect of the game. The player has 0 control or chances over it. In a game i even realized i was playing against 12 players (thanks wide screen) for no reason. I actually stop playing to count them. Career mode is nice, but is the same every year for a while now,it needs an update.
    Conclusion: EA doesn't give a damn

    Conclusion: EA doesn't give a damn anymore about this game, they just want our 60€ (or more thanks to the gambling machine called "packs") for a game that is just a carbon copy of the older one. Never again. Fifa is 100%dead to me.

    Same game as Fifa 20 with a few minor tweaks. Goalkeepers can't make a save, every shot inside the box is an instant goal. Dribbling is rewamped. Passes now have a major delay. And Every other player has the first touch of Lukaku. Same bugs just a new number on the box. Pace is not only op but now a necessity to play.

    Apart from a few minor changes and i mean minor, this is a copy of fifa20. Ctrl+c Ctrl+v is all the devs did and yet they still managed to release the game full of bugs. I dont know what they actually spend their time doing. They arent making new gameplay features or drastically improving game mechanics.

    Trash game. Not updates to be worth to be a new game, this could also be a dlc for fifa 20. and again, pay to win online game after paying 60$ is hilarious. waste of time.

    Game for fans who either need to work online at FUT every day, or instead want to try a modified career mode, which is starting to really look like Football Manager. Otherwise, it's a decent update for the full price. [Issue#307]

    The FIFA series desperately needs a fresh start. Right now, it relies mainly on the Ultimate Team mode and marketing, while going around in circles. Instead of leaping into the future, FIFA 21 takes half a step forward and two steps sideways in an attempt to differentiate itself from its predecessor well enough to rationalize spending money. If you already own FIFA 20 and are not addicted to Ultimate Team, you can sit this one out. [12/2020, p.44]

    A consummate package of shooting, slide tackling and swearing, but with some familiar current-gen frustrations. The saving grace could be FIFA 21’s free PS5 upgrade. [Issue#182, p.137]
