The addition of the Women’s Super League and France’s Division 1 Féminine takes the number of teams to 41, but they’re still not available to play as in all modes, with career mode and FUT the most glaring omissions. This year, it’s been used for the women as well as the men, and while the physical differences are perhaps not as noticeable as they are when playing with male players, it’s another step towards making the women’s game feel less like a token inclusion. Do the HyperMotionįIFA might not be the best game to show off the power of your console, but there are some neat new additions to 23 that help to enhance that sense of realism just a little bit more, whether it’s how the goal nets ripple or the way sliding tackles can cause the pitch to cut up over the course of 90 minutes.ĮA is keen to trumpet the impact of its HyperMotion2 motion-capture tech, which makes player movement look more realistic. For a football game, it’s slightly baffling.

EA had already added a load of training elements that just felt like admin, but now you also have the option to only play the highlights of games rather than the full 90 mins. What makes less sense is career mode’s continued attempts to have you play less football.

When taking control of a player there are now RPG-style points to be earned depending on how you behave on and off the pitch, plus you can choose to inhabit the body of real-life players and coaches rather than creating your own from scratch. Oh, and the interface is about as welcoming as a Rangers pub to somebody wearing a Celtic scarf.Ĭareer mode has had a visual makeover to bring it in line with the rest of the game, but it plays largely the same as before. Either way, FUT is still largely a pay-to-win racket that reflects all the worst parts of modern football. Some will welcome the extra freedom this gives when shopping in the transfer market, but it feels a bit like a major part of what made building a squad interesting and challenging has been removed.

Players from the same league or country no longer need to be adjacent to each other in your chosen formation to boost your chemistry score, plus they don’t suddenly forget how to play football just because they don’t have anything in common with their teammates. Ultimate Team – FIFA’s playable fantasy football mode and the virtual equivalent of the European Super League – now makes it easier to build a team of superstars thanks to a more forgiving approach to the way its team chemistry system works.
Perhaps that says more about the Red Devils’ fall from grace than anything else, though. When playing as clubs from outside of the European elite you don’t seem to get drawn against your PSGs or your Real Madrids as often, although the occasional Ronaldo perve does still pop up as Manchester United. Matchmaking does seem to have been improved, though.
