    What the f*** is the defence AI? It is the most horrendous thing I have ever used. It just doesn't help. Players with the ball inches away don't make the least of efforts to tackle it. Defenders only run when the attacker is already 1on1 with the keeper. Goals are so easy that every single one is equal to previous. Go waste your money on a knew sweater!

    Einfach nur Müll das gameplay .
    Das Spiel wird jedes Jahr schlechter und die Entwicklung denken nur an das Geld anstatt an die community

    Worst game I’ve ever played, just like every other FIFA from 18. That’s all I have to say about it.

    I havent bought it, but played at my friends. We both are really good players, eve though we were able to score easily 6-7 goals. Defending is just shambles in here. Like last year the game is scripted towards the end

    FUT is shocking I wonder if my keeper is actually playing or if it is just a hologram. Every single shot goes into the net. It’s all based on pace again, yet low shot, low strength players still beat your slightly slower but supposidly better stat players. Awful !!

    I've been playing fifa for nearly 20 years and this is the worst one they've made yet. They release the same terrible game every year now.

    I've played fifa since Fifa 12 religiously, and Fifa 20 was the game that made me step back a little. I was expecting Fifa 21 to be the opposite of its predecessor, and help EA rise to glory again, but oh how I was wrong. This is easily the worst Fifa game I've ever played.

And it's not the just gameplay.. It's the bugs, the outdated search systems, the music, the introduction of so many useless gameplay features, the colour chose. Everything. It's so upsetting that the game has come to this. The gameplay has become so slow. The defending is beyond terrible. Stop trying to rip people off by promoting new ways to play the game when in reality those features are way off the standard that is expected of Fifa. Playing in the days of Fifa 12 and Fifa 13 with players like Welliton, Eminike, Agbonlahor, Dede etc. Instead of improving every year, the game is becoming worse and worse. This is the first ever time I've reviewed anything in my life, but when you get the feeling of relief, rather than joy, when you win a match of Fifa, thats how you know the game is in a bad state.

How has no one tried to sue these dirty scums for taking advntage of every little thing to ensure profits fly through the roof. A gambling game, accessible to 3+ year olds. Lol. If that was a betting shop, the government and news would throw tantrums. But because EA have such deep pockets they don’t give a shut. They just long out the trial to ensure you rinse every penny you have just for it to get nowhere. Gthese scumbags in. Anyway. Expand

    Absolutly a pices of $#!7. Pay to win game! Defenders does not do anything. Meanwhile the Attackers can do everything! Kick off glich, script, 100 of bugs! DO NOT GET THIS GAME!! Pathetic. The ball always bounce back to your opponent.

    Absolutely awful. The animations, defending, ball physics...everything is so exaggerated and unreal. They have done nothing to improve on the previous instalment in the series. It’s a joke what they do to this beautiful game of football.

    Decepcionante trabajo de EA en este juego. La menor cantidad de novedades añadida hasta la fecha en un FIFA y la peor jugabilidad en años.

El hándicap continúa presente en el juego y eso hace muy injustos los partidos; y además han empeorado la interfaz con respecto a juegos anteriores. A todo esto se le suma el pay to win del online, siendo muchísimo más fácil progresar pagando por sobres de jugadores. Ya puede dar un cambio la franquicia porque actualmente este juego no merece la pena. A pesar de todo ello, posee muchos modos de juego y es entretenido de jugar con amigos. 4/10

I haven’t played PES for 10 years and I asume that clubs don’t have their original badges and kits. Fifa 21 is without any doubt in my mind, one of the worst video games that I have played in my entire life, the defending on this game is so bad you can’t really do anything right even if you react to the circumstances, defending on this game is all about luck and if you are not lucky, you are **** at this game, i g Expand

    Absolutely terrible. I have never seen a worse game in my entire life (And I won't).
    If the developers were just learning to code, they would've made a better game. I can't imagine how low fifa got this year. (No wonder they didn't give us the demo)
    Bye bye fifa, I'm finally not buying you ever again.

    The game state is the worst. Literally a copy and paste of fifa 20. Defending this year is a joke you can tackle with Van dijk, Varane, or any op defender in the game and it will deflect back to the opponent making it a greater chance. Goalkeeping is a joke getting beaten near post or the dropping the ball and giving the opener an easy goal. The worst game what happen to the good ole days.The game state is the worst.

    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]
