    Another year, another rushed game by EA Sports. They clearly do not care about their customers yet again just your money. Game is poor year after year with issue after issue.

    Same game as 21, no changes to the best game mode, Pro Clubs. Gameplay is slow and hardly a difference from 20. I can still hear music at halftime even though I turn it off. To reliant on animations that remain unchanged. DO NOT BUY this!

    FIFA 21: Full price roster up date and more gambling. More and more clear EA only cares about money, recycling the same dog **** rushed gambling games disguised as sports games.

    This a pantomine horses arse. Dreadful, arcadey mess of a game that is even more unresponsive. Full of scripting as always and the only changes from 20 made it worse. Good game for a simpleton perhaps. Don’t listen to the fan boys and EA plants on here - buy this game and you’ll regret it. Spend your 90 bucks in the pub instead and have some fun.

    This game is exceptional. Well...exceptional how it is really just a much slower reskin of Fifa 20. Seriously, it's SO slow it's beyond belief.

    EA have also outdone themselves by actually creating. game with MORE bugs than the previous iteration. I've been playing the EA Play 10 hour trial and have actually cancelled my pre-order, it's so obvious that the game is a half-arsed attempt

    I've been playing the EA Play 10 hour trial and have actually cancelled my pre-order, it's so obvious that the game is a half-arsed attempt at a new game but is indeed just a reskin.

    We ALL know how this will play out, the Early Access is THE best time to play and once servers become bombarded with users, and then the patches come thick and fast... in 2 short months the game will be unrecognisable from what it is now...and sadly that NEVER means for the better.

    SO, don't be a sucker... don't do it (again).

    Copy and paste from last year. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. You would think a company that grosses $1.49 BILLION DOLLARS from JUST ULTIMATE TEAM would do a little more for the consumer. Trash company and trash game they should be ashamed of making a mockery of soccer everywhere.

    FIFA has a big identity crisis. It tries to add little stuff every year but fails in having good and enjoyable game mechanics. Also, the graphics still suck, certainly compared to its biggest concurrent. It is broken in its very core. It also tries to knock money out of your pocket any chance it gets. EA is a lazy money-minded developer.

    Another perfect example of why you can’t trust any of the games media. They are just extensions of the publishers public relations teams. The game is a copy&paste **** show. Solely designed around micro-transactions. With less actual features than years prior.

    The gameplay is awful, it's like playing 200kg players on ice, the ai got way worse, especially for goalkeepers. It's even less challenging than last years version and improvements in career mode are not only barely noticeable, they also make the gamemode more boring to play. Overall the worst Fifa I played since I started with Fifa 06!

    300 reais in the base game here in Brazil. This is almost 1/3 of the minimum wage in an ANNUAL GAME that each year receives more novely that nobody asks for and keeps the older problems

    After a long time, we bought the new fifa again. I was shocked by the quality of the football game that I loved for years. Everything that makes football so beautiful has been completely destroyed in this game.

    Spectacle seems more important than realism in this game. No more difficult matches, no more searching for the perfect moment, but continuously countering and scoring with the most beautiful goals you can think of. Every attacker seems to have become a streetfootballer with many tricks and because the defense is not developed like the attackers, you can do very little against approaching goals. It is really sad what this game has become.

    Pros:
    - Some nice changes to career mode that l will make you think carefully about the tactics and development of your team

    Cons:
    - EA wants to make a spectacle of every game; goals, goals, goals
    - Development of attackers and defenders is completely out of balance
    - No visual upgrade whatsoever - The game lost it’s realism and everything what makes football amazing

    The usual drivel. They’ve added a few interesting features for career mode, but unless you actually fancy watching the sim with no intention of playing it’s no help. Playing the game is as terrible as ever, amplified by pace being the only way to play the game. Defending is simply a myth, you have to hope you manage to be stood directly where they try to sprint.

    I am 300 wins 30 losses in fifa 20. 33 wins 3 losses in fifa 21. Why am I complaining? Becoz its awful. Ai defenders can't keep up with attacking runs. Goalkeepers are non existent, but by far the worst bit.. interceptions.. countless times I'm stood in the lane of a pass only for my defender or midfielder to be completely disinterested in picking up the ball. 14 years of fifa and I'veI am 300 wins 30 losses in fifa 20. 33 wins 3 losses in fifa 21.

Tackles bouncing back to your enemy more times than last year-a hard thing to manage!. Bad bad bad game. (And that's coming from someone who is really good at it. Madness) scoring goals is the hardest thing in football, fifa makes defending the most challenging part, its not fun to score and its infuriating to concede. If you like your football matches 6-6 on the scoreline then fifa 21 is for you. Expand

    FIFA 21 hasn't re-written the wheel but it is fun, fast attacking football and hopefully EA have big plans to shake up the franchise next year for its true next-gen console experience.

    Fifa 20 continues its dominance, albeit in the absence of real competition. The new tricks give us more entertaining offense play and the career mode is more dynamic than ever. Volta has also been updated to the point of almost becoming a separate game. Despite this we do notice that EA cannot go further than this on today's consoles, and we look forward to a new entry for the Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X.

    Chances are that you’ll already know what you’re getting into with FIFA 21; while it may be broadly similar to last years effort in its game feel, with a few good tweaks and subtle changes, that’s kind of to be expected with an annualised sports franchise. The improvements that have been made across some of the modes are welcome, and offer up new ways to enjoy the series. It’s also rather lovely to look at, and should be a fine showcase for the upcoming Series X|S come launch day!
