The transfer system isn’t quite as ridiculous as it was in FIFA 20, with more realistic prices requested for the best players. The depth that makes this stuff interesting in FM is lost here. I did them a couple of times and then found myself simulating them just to get to the next match. They happen multiple times a week and get incredibly dull incredibly fast. It’s clearly trying to be more like Football Manager, but the result feels hollow and, at times, incredibly dull. Having sunk a lot of time into this new offering, I don’t really think the changes make it any better. Career mode has been maligned for ages, but it was still what I would spend most of my hours in. There’s now more focus on player development and training regimes, a morale system for your team, supposedly improved transfers and more options when you set up your game.

Where FIFA 21 really makes itself a worthwhile investment is in the wide variety of modes and content it offers. Just don’t come here expecting a revolution. That’s fine, this is still a good game of football that’s a lot quicker and more arcadey than PES. This time it’s much easier to attack a cross with your players head and it doesn’t always lead to the ball floating out for a goal kick.īut, really, the gameplay here is so similar to that of FIFA 21. Heading in FIFA 20 was terrible and far too difficult to use regularly. Perhaps the most obvious change experienced players will appreciate is the improvements made to crossing and heading. The same goes for dribbling, which is ever so slightly harder and a little more varied than before. The improved animations here do change this slightly and collisions are a little more natural as a result. Players would trip in the same way, fall over the same way and it was easy to spot when this was going to happen.

FIFA has tended to, in the past, feel like a series of canned animations whatever you do. That heavier ball leads to far more wayward passes, even the from the top players, whether it’s from the AI-controlled players or yourself.Ī more obvious change, especially coming over from PES 2021, is a reworked collision system and smarter dribbling. After a few games you’ll probably forget this, but it’s definitely there at the start. The ball feels a bit heavy underfoot and as a result things are ever so slightly slower. It’s not completely the same though, with some changes feeling a little tacked on just to offer variety. With FIFA 21, this is harder than before as it feels very like its predecessor. Whenever I pick up the new version of FIFA, the first few games are spent trying to work out exactly what gameplay tweaks are new. The usual Ultimate Team modes are present, there’s been a much-needed overhaul (though not in all the right ways) of career mode and the street-style Volta makes another appearance adding a small nuggets of narrative and a more free-flowing game to the overall package.
Fifa 21 platforms update#
Even more so than previously, this feels like a title that could have followed in the footsteps of PES 2021 and opted for a smaller, less substantial update for a lower price.īut that isn’t the style of Electronic Arts, and if you’re a passionate FIFA fan then there’s still a lot of content packed in here. And, once again, FIFA 21 feels very much like a minor update on its predecessor. Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series SĪnother year, another iteration of FIFA.
