FIFA 21 First Look
In EA Play fans got to see the first look at new FIFA as EA released a footage containing FIFA 21 and Madden 21.
Juventus to return in FIFA 21?
No, Juventus will remain as Piemonte Calcio
The Italian giants agreed on an exclusive licensing agreement with Konami in 2019 to feature in only Pro Evolution Soccer (PES). So unless something drastic happens, Juve will stay on PES for another two years.
Piemonte Calcio will instead represent the club with all its proper players. But the team won’t have the Juventus badge, kits or even the Allianz Stadium.
One game mode improvement every fan wants?
One thing that all gamers are desperate to see is an improved career mode in FIFA 21.
EA Sports needed to polish up its career mode last year despite adding additional features. It’s obvious some kind of overhaul is needed to keep it from feeling so familiar and bland.
Fans also hope EA Sports will give them a more realistic experience in the transfer market and a better way to integrate youngsters.
FIFA 21 features
EA Sports’ “feel next level” promise for FIFA 21 on PS5 and Xbox Series X includes controller haptics, faster load times, and improved visuals, immersion, and player movement. In short, FIFA 21 claims to usher in “a whole new level of realism”.
In terms of improved visuals, FIFA 21 promises a new deferred lighting system that brings more detail to every part of the game. That includes the players themselves, whose faces, hair, kits, and uniforms benefit from dynamic lighting, and a better-defined physique. Players will also respond more fluidly and with enhanced animations in FIFA 21, thanks to what EA Sports calls “stats-driven player movement”.
As for immersion, FIFA 21 is seemingly using the extra power available on next-gen consoles to drive up non-essential experiences. Before matches, pregame cinematic will attempt to deliver a match-day experience of sorts.
In endgame situations, players will scream for passes or adjust their shin pads, EA Sports claims. And if you manage to score a last-minute winner, expect to see reactions amidst the playing XI, on the bench, and in the stands. EA Sports claims that FIFA 21 (and Madden NFL 21) will offer most authentic behaviors in sports games anywhere.
