New features people are enjoying in EA Sports FC25

EA Sports FC25

The start of the season is exciting for football fans, as they see the stars take to the pitch for another nine months of scintillating action. Many gamers also enjoy this time of year as the latest edition of one of EA Sports’ most popular franchises releases too.

FC25 is the most recent title and has 2023’s Golden Boy, Jude Bellingham as the cover star. According to GamesIndustry.Biz, it was the bestselling video game in September 2024.

The reason for its initial sales success can be attributed to returning modes like Ultimate Team and Clubs. However, several new features have ensured the hype for it remains high and keep it feeling fresh. With that in mind, here are some aspects that people can’t get enough of.

Enhanced matchday atmosphere

FC titles have never felt as immersive as this one. Whether you’re seeing the vivid red of a Liverpool shirt in the crowd or hearing the Anfield faithful roaring after a goal, the improved stadium environment truly brings it to life.

Loading up an Ultimate Team (UT) match on next-generation consoles only builds the excitement as well. Now you can see your players in the changing rooms getting ready for a Rivals, FUT Champions or Squad Battles clash.

Rush mode added

Fans have been crying out for a new, fast-paced mode and EA has finally listened. Rush has now become a thrilling way to play and is available in both UT and Clubs.

Together with three others and an AI-controlled goalkeeper, you’ll face off against four online opponents in a 5v5 fixture. The pitch is significantly smaller and gameplay is usually one end to another, which only adds to the fun.

Taking part in these matches is often a requirement if you’re looking to upgrade your favourite footballers through completing Evolutions, so learn how to become a pro at it now.

More personalisation

Whether you’re wanting to take a fake team from League 2 to European glory or lead the one you support in real life to domestic success, Career Mode is the place for you. However, customisation has now been taken to new heights.

This year, you have more control over your tactics and developing your talent, much like you can in the Football Manager franchise. By the time you’re finished, you’ll have created a style of play that’s truly unique and can take you to the top of the table.
