EA FC 24 Launches New Era for EA Sports Football Games with Improved Visuals and Game Modes, But Lacks Bold Innovation After Split from FIFA

  • EA FC 24 marks the beginning of a new era after EA and FIFA ended their partnership, but the core gameplay still feels very familiar.

  • The graphics, animations, and matchday presentation are better than ever, creating an incredibly realistic football simulation.

  • Manager Career Mode received a major overhaul with new tactical visions, backroom staff, and pre-match preparations.

  • Women's players make their debut in Ultimate Team, and the new Evolutions system lets you boost low-rated cards over time.

  • While enjoyable overall, EA FC 24 plays it safe and lacks truly bold changes to match its rebranding.
