    GAMEPLAY
    Reimagined gameplay creates fundamental advances that you’ll feel across every mode in FIFA 22. A goalkeeper rewrite brings more composure and consistency to the most important position on the pitch, new ball physics reimagine every pass, shot, and goal, and explosive sprint lets you feel the acceleration of the game’s quickest players.
    • Goalkeeper Rewrite - A brand new goalkeeper system brings a new level of intelligence to the last line of defence, unlocking more reliable shot-stopping and smarter decision-making between the posts. In FIFA 22, goalkeeper positioning personality replicates the different styles of keepers throughout the game - from the lightning-fast reflexes of world-class shot stoppers like Jan Oblak to the aggression of sweeper keepers such as Ederson.
    • True Ball Physics - Real-world data imported into FIFA 22 takes the game’s ball physics to a new level of realism. Tuned parameters including speed, swerve, air drag, air resistance, ground friction, and rolling friction mean every touch, trap, shot, volley, pass, and dribble will look, move, and fly like the real thing.
    • Explosive Sprint - A new gameplay mechanic that changes the dynamic of one-on-one situations, Explosive Sprint gives you more control over acceleration when dribbling or defending. Lure opponents in and choose when to unleash your full speed to get away from the defender as you drive your team forward in attack.

    Although it has its shortcomings, I’ve been really impressed with FIFA 22. EA has delivered one of the most in-depth career modes to date, and the new additions across the game’s other modes are most welcome. I do hope to see more iteration across the board, but the gameplay this year feels top notch. It’s a huge step forward for the series, and a proper showcase of what the new consoles are capable of.

    FIFA 22 introduces welcome new features such as the Hypermotion technology, a more balanced gameplay and improvements in several modes, but it fails to get rid of some historical flaws that now clash more with the improvements received. The result is, as always, a football title of the highest caliber, both on the technical front and in terms of pure fun, but we start to feel the need for a more marked change of pace to really push the saga into the new generation.

    FIFA 22 is a further leap towards realism in soccer titles. The inclusion of Hypermotion not only improves the staging of the game, but also translates to the field. In addition, improvements in ball physics and additions to the different game modes make FIFA 22 a more satisfying game than the previous title in the series.

    FIFA 22 evolved its engine and its core game modes, but the feeling on the pitch is almost the same. The gameplay is very attack-oriented and fast: FIFA fans are going to love it, football fans, maybe, would love to slow it down and try a more tactical experience.

    FIFA 22 makes some important changes on and off the pitch, and though there's still plenty of room for improvement, it's still the series' best game in recent years.

    FIFA 22 is just like any other FIFA game. It’s a very, very good football game, and with NBA 2K taking its eyes off the prize in favour of the State Farm drip, it’s left with a tap-in to be 2021’s best sports sim. HyperMotion makes a difference, create-a-club adds some personality, and everything else is the same. What more were you expecting?

    Fifa 22 struggles with a massive identity-crisis. Does it want to be a realistic football simulation or as spectacular as possible? The result is rather disappointing. A soulless football game in which every game feels like a match for the Johan Cruijff cup: you can win it, but it really isn't about anything at all.

    Mixed Feelings. On one side it feels like a solid step forward coming from Fifa 21, the midfield is existing again and even the defense worksMixed Feelings. On one side it feels like a solid step forward coming from Fifa 21, the midfield is existing again and even the defense works most of the time. Which makes the game a lot more tactical again. Only goalkeepers are too strong which obligates you to only make goals in two or three different ways.
    But since the last patch, it's become worse, because you need to have a pressure tactic otherwise you will have no chance in Division 4 or above, it's just too the OP but makes Fifa 22 more than Fifa 21 again.
    So if they go back to the original version it's a good FIFA otherwise only solid. Graphics are okay on XSX and the Sound is great, also not a lot of bugs, all things which aren’t self-evident anymore.

But, the ammount of glitches in the career mode is crazy like the position, commentary name cause I chose one and it doesn't work, at times players of the same team have the same shirt number. When you chose to play as a winger it brings you back to being an offensive midfielder and when you want to change shirt numbers as well it won't let you. Other than that the game is really good cannot conplain Expand

    PLAYING ON SERIES S

    I had to request a refund of this game. It is by far the worst looking game I’ve seen in years. I do not care about graphics really at all but the poor graphics made it very hard to play. It seems that they just didn’t work on the next gen port of this game. I’ve gone back and compared it to previous years FIFA’s and the graphics best compare to maybe FIFA 08, thought that game looks better in many ways. Very confusing and sad.
