    More of the same from EA. Trying to exploit the community and take all their money with ultimate team.

    Usual Fifa game, nothing special. Online mode was fun but PSG was very very overpowered. The whole team is way too fast and very unrealistic.

    No words, is only a bad update of the 2020 version, pay for win(maybe), and "King" momentum reigns online...

    Game is nothing like football, it’s ridiculous to even watch gameplay, even worse to play it yourself. It should be free play at this point. Give us football SIMULATOR for the money

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Having played the FIFA game since it’s very first version many years ago, I have witnessed a rapid decline over the last few years. What used to be a great realistic and fun game, has now become an unrealistic and poorly predictable mess. The AI intelligence is far from ‘football intelligent’ and gamers now simply have to go to YouTube, to find the cheats and tricks to win games. This game no longer allows a creative or football minded person to play football. It’s no surprise that this game is losing its place in gamers hearts and it won’t be long before it loses its place on shop shelves. The last 5 years has seen virtually no improvement in graphics or animation.. instead, a rearrangement of button configurations or instructions, to make you learn again, what you already knew previously. Waste of money… Expand

    Worst fifa game just behind fifa 20. A cash cow EA is now. Passing goes to the wrong direction everytime, tackling inconsistent. Cant even get the ball when I predict the opponents 10 different moves. Goal keeper always deflects the ball to the opponents striker every freaking time. Major issue is that the games decision making/ ai is at the lowest low. Whats the point of even adding it?Worst fifa game just behind fifa 20. A cash cow EA is now.

Players make runs and just stop abruptly judt when you decide to make a throufh ball. Virtually all lobbed through balls to the striker are overhit. I could go on and on. I am never buying a fifa game again!!!… Expand

    FIFA 21 is the worst FIFA ever. I have been a loyal fan of FIFA since 11 years, but FIFA 21 has been disappointing in so many ways.
    Please do not buy this crap wait for them to release other version

    It is a sports game that applies haptic feedback and adaptive trigger, which are functions of DualSense, well :)

    Pure trash company. First time playing an online EA games and it's f-ing trash, customer services is f-ing garbage, feel stupid when I spent money on this f-king game. Took forever for them to solve your problem. Pure f-ing trash company.

    This game is horrible. Since 2019 the gameplay is completely broken and the physics are a joke. Playing online is almost impossible with a 200Mbs connection and just 8ms bing. Playing offline is ridiculous because of the stupid scripting or "adaptive difficulty" as EA would call it. And to top all that I have to deal with the soccer aid bug that took me from 1st division down to 4th

    Such a poor game. Bland visuals. Awful AI. Some real janky animations. Worse, the game plays little like football. Defending is a joke. Players don't feel good controlling. There's little real skill or challenge in scoring whereas defending is one of the most frustrating gaming experiences. Even if you're competent, it ain't fun.

    everyone who still gives money to EA is a retard.

    they destroyed every franchise they bought. it's all about profit not the player or the game.

    EA sports just keeps making this game worse on every single update, it’s so ffn trash i deleted the freakin game... it is insanely $hit to say the least, penalties left and right, midfield does not exist, defending is **** passing is the worst so far, gameplay is manipulated... Faaaaaack EA sports for not listening to players and pi$$ing on a game that at one point was the benchmark.

    The franchise I used to love has become nothing more than a money-making machine. The gameplay is a disaster, and has at this point lost the contact with actual football. Tactics is non-existing, since skillmoves and pace is the only thing needed to win a game.

    We are witnessing the death of a classic. I have bought and played Fifa since 2011 and I have noticed a devolution over the years, but the 2021 version is a joke. EA has turned FIFA 21 into a circus, Fortnite-like game as opposed to a soccer/football simulator.

    Disco music celebrations, ridiculous banners on the stands, I guess next year they will add the possibility of playing with Messi using a Stormtrooper helmet or Cristiano Ronaldo with a crocodile head.
    If that was not enough, all online games finish 5-4, 4-3, 5-5, 6-6...pretty realistic, right?
    The players move as if they were ice skating on the pitch...
    I also miss the days when having a player like Harry Kane or Luis Suarez on your Ultimate Team was something to be proud about. Nowadays all teams have Messi, Salah, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kevin De Bruyne, etc.
    EA has destroyed this franchise, but hey...I guess this kind of game is what the younger generations (Fortnite fans ) like.
    I am keeping my fingers crossed for Pro Evolution Soccer to come with a game that looks something like football next year.    … Expand

    Much better than the ps4 version, but still a boken mess of a product. Would give the ps4 version a negativ number if i could. Scripting and momentum shifting is killing the series. Maybe it'll get better if FUT is cancelled

    Honestly. The worst instalment ever. Declan Rice acting like prime Ronaldinho. Counters only way to score. Pro clubs hasn’t been touched at all! So so so so bad

    Don’t expect a revolution. The PS5 version of the latest FIFA looks better, runs at 60 fps in 4K, and loads matches much faster, but the only feature truly worth focusing on is the creative use of haptic feedback (e.g. as your player gets tired, triggers gradually become harder to press).

    FIFA 21 for Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X/S is definitely best and most beautiful version of this years FIFA-outing. It gives a glimpse on things, that can become a big thing in the next couple of years, but also fails to make changes on certain lackluster gameplay-features of the game.

    While FIFA 21 is as good a showcase for the potential of the DualSense as we’ve seen so far, the underlying issues with this entry remain. [Issue#184, p.88]
