This year’s cover star is Jude Bellingham. At just 21 years old, Jude has captured the hearts of fans, thanks to his incredible ability to control the midfield and create scoring chances. Jude’s standout performances have established him as a vital player for Real Madrid and the England national team. With his exciting playing style, EA Sports promises that you’ll feel Jude’s influence throughout EA Sports FC 25.

This year’s edition introduces gameplay elements like the new 5v5 Rush mode and the FC IQ tactical system. You’ll have more control over your team’s strategy and experience the excitement of women’s soccer in Career Mode for the first time.

New features in EA Sports FC 25

EA Sports FC 25 is packed with new features that I am excited about. One of the most important new additions is FC IQ, which completely overhauls tactical foundations. This system gives you greater strategic control over your team’s movements and plays. It introduces a new AI model, driven by real-world data, which influences player behaviour through distinct Player Roles. As a result, EA Sports is touting that you’ll notice more realistic collective movement, making matches feel more authentic.

Another major new feature is Rush, a 5v5 social experience. This mode allows you to team up with friends and compete in fast-paced matches. This mode features the same gameplay mechanics as the traditional 11v11 format, but in a more compact setting. I think it is going to be great for quick games with friends or for sharpening your skills.

In Career Mode, you will now be able to experience Live Start Points. This feature lets you dive into real-world storylines, such as mid-season transfers or managerial changes. You’ll also have the chance to manage women’s soccer teams for the first time, achieving parity with men’s soccer across all modes.

Additionally, the Player Career mode introduces iconic players from soccer history. You can rewrite their stories in today’s game, adding a unique twist to your experience.

Next level matchday experience

EA Sports is taking the matchday experience to a whole new level in this year’s game. One of the most notable changes is the introduction of newly designed stadiums. These stadiums feature larger away sections, allowing for a bigger crowd of fans to support their teams on the road. This change adds to the excitement and intensity of each match, making you feel like you’re part of a real soccer event.

In addition, FC 25 also has even more detailed match presentation elements. New broadcast sequences highlight key players and tactical decisions, giving you a deeper understanding of the game as it unfolds. You’ll now see player stats and performances showcased, which adds a layer of realism and engagement to your matches.

Moreover, FC 25 now has pre-match sequences that take you beyond the pitch. There are now locker room and tunnel moments that reflect your team’s customizations, making your journey feel unique. These enhancements not only elevate the gameplay but also create a richer, more authentic experience.
