EA Sports FC 25 Review

EA Sports FC 25 reviewed by Robert Anderson on Xbox Series X, also available on Xbox One, PlayStation, and PC.

"After more than 20 years of EA Sports football titles, the cracks in this series are no longer subtle—they’re threatening its foundation. FC 25 takes steps forward, introducing some interesting new features such as the fast-paced and compelling Rush mode, but much of the package beyond that continues to feel overly familiar. Gameplay tweaks that are heading in the right direction don’t stop it from being stale and uninteresting this year, and struggles with a clunky, touchscreen-inspired UI bog everything down. Rush is the best thing to happen to the series in years, but even that can’t fully mask the prominent underlying problems."

Going to keep saying it. EA need to do major open heart surgery on the game but won’t do until people finally STOP BUYING IT

FC 25
"EA SPORTS... ITS ALL THE SAME"💀

[marconeves]

If IGN gives it a 6, then the real score is 4.

[alstonbraganza]

So they removed most pre-game tactics? Watch how they bring it back in a couple of years and say it's a new thing.

I'll just wait until it's free on psn again

[Xalexman]

The problem is EA has no reason to innovate these games when the same people keep buying it every year

[bludhound]

FC/FIFA is a card game with a soccer video game attached. They make more money off of FUT than they do from sales of the game.

[Johnnyjawbone]

The people who design this game do not play football, are not interested in football and have absolutely no interest in making a compelling videogame based on the sport.
They just want your money.
Stop giving them your money!

Just a normal comment from a human, not a bot.

Bruh even the reviewers are starting to sound more and more depressed regarding yearly sports games at this point...

Even as someone who couldn't care about these type of games it's really goddamn sad to see these go down the crapper...

[manyamaggot]

Rush is literally Volta with another name and nobody played Volta

[MidnightPursuit]

You can’t polish a turd 💩 but you can roll it in glitter ✨

[Aragorn]

0:02 lolz to the opening GFX of the crowd...looks legit PS3

[MrSquaky]

They need to start giving these BS sports games 3s and 4s instead of 5s and 6s

[lancealex]

Good review! It's true this game is fundamentally broken. Since it's competition died these developers have been phoning it in.

[nathanielbaker]

The game is built on an engine that is 10 years old now. They need take a year off to do a whole new game which they will never do because ultimate team makes so much money.

[ItsTheTravellingTrio]

So basically the best part of the game is "Rush Mode" which is actually nothing to do with real football. In a few years it will be basically the football version of Space Jam. This just proves that a year update would suffice. But if people will buy it then who can blame them for making it. Build it, and they will come and all that.

[OpenDoorEnglish]

Rush mode is basically how Americans wish 'soccer' was in reality. Stop putting time into crap like this and improve the actual 11 vs 11 experience.

[Niki]

Imagine complimenting the Rush commentary when the guy has like 3 lines in his script, two of them being 'Goal'

[leochua]

We need to stop buying it so there will be real changes in the future eafc😂
