    The physics are horrible, the entire gameplay sucks, career mode is boring, and absolutely nobody should play the scam that is ultimate team. 0/10.

    El peor juego de fútbol que me he echado a la cara, defender es imposible y jugadores como mbappe o Messi se pasan a todos los defensas corriendo

    Absolute sham of a game and has been for a few years. Career mode is unplayable, Ultimate team is pay to win and takes advantage of young teenagers through loop-hole gambling, gameplay is terrible with the best defenders in the world forgetting that tackling is an option. Weird games where a 99 rated passer cannot find his teammate from 10 yards away. How anyone can stand behind this gameAbsolute sham of a game and has been for a few years.

Weird games where a 99 rated passer cannot find his teammate from 10 yards away. How anyone can stand behind this game is beyond me. So called "critics" who have given it a 74 should have their "critic" label revoked. You clearly did not take the time to actually play the game for more than 10 minutes if you think it's a 7.4. EA have a monopoly and thus have become complacent and are just defrauding their clients who should just stop buying this **** I know I will.… Expand

    Gra nie rozpieszcza swoją mechanikom oraz stylem gry, lecz dla fanów serii to wciąż nie ma znaczenia ponieważ można popłynąć w niej na kilka godzin

    I play in ultimate team. This is very bad. All problem stay in this part: arcade and unrealistic football, only speed and agility is major, bad connect, many types of cards with unrealistic skils

    Do not ever buy this, if you already have a fifa game just don't buy this game, because it's the same thing from the last game, but has way more microtransactions, AI is really bad, graphics are nothing of an upgrade, sure, even if you can play fifa games if you have gamepass, it's still not worth playing it at all.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm a veteran FIFA player, and the gameplay just seems to be getting worse over the years. High scoring games like 4-5 and 5-6 are way too common. Midfielders don't track back while defending. AI tactics are broken and uses constant pressure way too often, making it quite easy to score while it's completely drained of energy. This game isn't even worth half price. FIFA should be a paid subscription. You shouldn't pay 60 dollars every year for a game that barely adds new features.… Expand

    Played on Xbox Series X (via GPU) and as long time Fifa player (since N64 days), this is one of the worst Fifa games ever made.

    Ultimate Team is a Pay to Win + online casino (yes, in European laws UT should be considered an online casino accessible only to +18, because that's what UT is) mode were the more money you spend, more chances you will have to mount a competitive team.

    Online seasons mode is another joke with an atrocious scripting: I always use the same team and in one game, they run like a Ferrari, controls are always responsive to the inputs, the defenders defend like normal football players and the GK is a Gianluigi Buffon on steroids; in the next game, they run like Ford Ts, the control inputs are full of lag, the GK is dumber than a rock and the defenders are complete idiots.
    This is even worse as you rise to from division to division.

    If you value your money, don't buy another Fifa game until EA changes everything and stop treating its players like idiots.    … Expand

    I wish this game was deleted from the servers, people were refunded their money, and they never made another game. The game play for this game is atrocious. There is no defense, no goalie play, the fouls called are inconsistent and embarrassing. EA clearly put no effort into this game. Just uninstalled it so I would never have to look at it again

    Worst football game ever created... The game is rigged beyond anything ever seen. EA's player retention mechanics will punish regular players against casual. DDA is all over the place... When will those rats at EA be sued for issuing so many lies and rigging this game ?

    per me fifa 21 è uno dei fifa migliori visto che fifa 20 non mi è piaciuto, tanto da disinstallarlo praticamente appena preso.
    ha fatto passi in avanti rispetto a tutti gli altri del passato come 18 o 19 pero cambierei sicuramente alcune cose come la carriera calciatore e anche i rigori e punizioni.

    Fifa 2021 is totally far from reality. Keeper and defenders where just useless and weak. Everything look unreal strukers get passed defender any how, u cant defend. Pls fifa 2020 is the best realistic game ever just to improved on striker heading that all but fifa 21 is totally non_sence

    If you doesn't play online mode and you have game pass system, this game is very good actually. Soft controls and good interface. As I said, to give 60$ to this game is ridiculous but ıf you buy in sale or in game pass, why not like that game.
    However, there are ridiculous mistakes in the game. For example, young people with potential hold a red card ...

    Too focused on animations... Players never do what I want. I've played soccer my whole life and videogames and fifav for that matter and I either lose horribly or win by ten...I almost never have a realistic game. The controls feel like I'm whispering suggestions from the other room

    It's broken. As in it has game modes that are quite literally broken.

    In Be A Pro, you can be the best player in world football but if the team you play for doesn't play a player in your position, they simply won't select you in the squad.

    So you're stuck quick simming matches at the club you're at because you're never selected for matches for the rest of time.

    Worst game (not just FIFA game, by the way) I have EVER played. It's beyond trash - it's like someone was given a five minute overview of "soccer" having never seen it played and told to go write a game about it. The defending is beyond terrible, passing utterly random, stats meaningless. That you can actually just sprint INTO defenders and rarely lose the ball is mystifying.

The defending is beyond terrible, passing utterly random, stats meaningless. That you can actually just sprint INTO defenders and rarely lose the ball is mystifying. No such thing as a slide tackle. I played several times in seasons and still can't work out what the full backs are doing in every, single game, wandering aimlessly, no tracking runners. The defenders are the worst aspect, they are just all over the place all of the time. Let's not even talk about 'keeping. The momentum BS is clearly still in full effect. All in all it's not healthy - EA are a desperately greedy company, almost stealing money from children in Ultimate Team and paying no attention whatsoever to the state of what is the worst football game I've ever played. I'd sooner load up Sensible Soccer for a better experience.… Expand

    I still don't understand why people are saying it's same as FIFA 20 which was quite playable. The gameplay is significantly worse than FIFA 20. Defending is so bad and frustrating, it’s just about having players with pace. Games easily end up with 7+ goals.
    And next gen version is even worse and totally unplayable.

    If you don't already own FIFA 21, we doubt this upgrade will convince you to head out and buy it. But if you're a fan of the franchise and are thinking of picking up a new console, the next-gen update might be the thing that makes you fall in love with football all over again.

    FIFA 21 on the new generation consoles is a largely familiar experience. There are no gameplay tweaks or improvements to talk about, but it does look marginally better due to a new lighting system and more realistic player models. There’s a heightened sense of atmosphere with crowds brought to life in more detail and contextual animations of making fans and players feel less like soulless AI and more like humans.

    A good soccer game with more strengths than weaknesses, loads of licenced teams and a great presentation. But while it looks better than ever it still is stagnating overall.
