EA Sports FC 25 Gameplay

FC 25 brings a familiar gameplay experience to veterans of the series but also accessible enough to new players. Overall, FC 25, at its core, is a Soccer simulation video game that, like many EA Sports games runs on Frostbite Engine.

But the biggest new change to FC this year comes in the form of FC IQ. It represents an overhaul across the game to deliver more realistic player movement, improved AI, new Player Roles, and more. And with Hypermotion V returning, expect player movement to closely mimic how the players move in real life.

FC 25 adds over 50 new player roles and new ways for you to change your tactic in-game. Each role comes with 1-3 modifiers that let you customize specific characteristics. Additionally, PlayStyles make a return, and these abilities help give your players an edge during certain situations.

Players will also have role familiarity, which represents how good they are at certain roles. FC 25 includes a role system that ranks how good a player is at a certain role. Furthermore, you can use the Smart Tactics feature to make decisions recommended to you by the game.

FC 25 also introduces several gameplay changes on the pitch to improve your experience. This includes improved passing, shooting, dribbling, and even new skill moves for the players to master. Furthermore, the defensive side of the ball as well as Goalkeeping also received some love. Additionally, the developer also made a Simulation mode, as well as new CPU Sliders to make a better personalized experience.

Overall, FC 25’s core gameplay experience will feel the same as previous years, but with new innovations to make it better than ever.

FC 25 also brings back several modes, many which have received improvements. This includes modes like:

• Manager Career – Create and control a manager to lead your Club to glory. Managers can now manage women’s teams. Furthermore, live starting points let you start from a specific point of a specific club’s season.
• Player Career – Create and control a player and live out their career. Set goals yourself to potentially sign with a new club and fight for individual awards like the Ballon d’Or.
• Ultimate Team – build your Soccer dream team and compete with them in the new 5v5 Rush Mode
• Clubs – Create a virtual pro player and compete on the pitch with your friends. Check out the new Clubhouse and and play Clubs’ version of 5v5 Rush

And there’s plenty of other returning modes, like Tournaments, VOLTA, and of course, your standard Quick Play mode. There’s no shortage of familiar modes in FC 25. Although many players might start playing Career Mode, there’s plenty of other modes to keep the experience fresh for you. Overall, expect something familiar but with new improvements across the board.

Overall, that wraps up the FC 25 Release Date, Gameplay, and Trailer. We look forward to another annual release, but are also cautiously optimistic, considering annual release sports titles struggle to innovate constantly. Nevertheless, we hope to see an enjoyable experience for fans of the series.
