Overview
- Dual presets split the game into faster Competitive for online and slower Authentic for single-player modes such as Kick Off and Career.
- The Pure Xbox review praises the on-pitch feel with tighter dribbling, sharper movement and standout goalkeeper performances.
- AI off-ball runs, crossing effectiveness and positioning are flagged as lingering weaknesses that temper the gains.
- Ultimate Team plays at a frantic pace with refreshed Rivals and Champions plus Live Events, remaining largely the familiar experience.
- Career mode adds Live Challenges and presentation retains a polished TV-broadcast sheen, with further gameplay tuning expected through post-launch updates.
