It’s little wonder, of course. Ultimate Team hasn’t been changed in the slightest since the first FIFA game on the Switch (FIFA 18), with not a single extra mode or feature included in that time.

This meant that it was one of two stadiums (along with the Stadio Olimpico), the home ground of AS Roma, to be deleted. [18] That also means Volta football, which has been on other formats in FIFA 20, 21, 22 and 23 but has been little more than a mysterious fable on Switch, is now included in its entirety. It could be argued that it’s even better suited to Nintendo’s console, because its arcade-like mini-games are perfect for short bursts and local multiplayer. Accessibility Features Gameplay Yes, okay, you’re right. Perhaps we should have put more effort into getting this intro right. But at the end of the day, if EA isn’t willing to put any effort into FIFA on the Switch, why should we try to show it up? That would just be arrogant of us.

As much as we appreciate EA’s decision to finally make the jump to Frostbite, and as much as it makes the game far more detailed than the previous FIFA games on Switch, the one benefit of the previous engine was that its primitive nature meant it could run at 60fps without a hitch.

After spending a bit of time with FIFA 21 I initially thought Chris was being overly harsh here; after all, it still plays a perfectly decent game of football, it looks decent enough and, when you've got a few friends over, is a pretty brilliant multiplayer game. But, as Chris points out, the key issue here is that this is essentially the same game we got with FIFA 18, but we're expected to shell out the full price. Again. Sure, give us the latest kits and squad lineups as low-cost DLC, but asking for us to shell out again for a game we effectively own already is just plain cheeky. Avoid this one.
