While playing soccer on PC was never an extremely challenging endeavor, I expected more from this year’s release than simply being a carbon copy of last year’s model. While it’s acknowledged that certain assumptions don’t entirely hold up, the actual requirements are presented in a somewhat inverted sequence, and minute details such as CPU clock speeds have been intentionally omitted, suggesting that more care was taken in compiling this year’s criteria.
As the EA Sports FC 25 release date draws near, details are slowly emerging, but the system requirements lack excitement. The conspicuous absence of endeavour in compiling the list raises serious concerns, even considering the annual soccer series’ lack of significant visual or technical innovations this year?

Given the demands of EA Sports activities FC 24, it’s surprising that the game can run effectively without a high-performance graphics card, as specified by Nvidia GeForce GTX in the recommended system requirements.
To achieve competitive results in EA Sports FC 25 on PC, it’s essential to ensure seamless gameplay, which can be achieved by synchronizing the game’s performance settings with those of other contemporary titles. I was surprised to find that even this flagship title doesn’t demand a robust RTX 2060 graphics card, instead getting by just fine with the humble GTX 1660.
The listed specifications seem unlikely to deliver a smooth 60fps performance without compromising on resolution, and even then, may necessitate the use of AMD’s FSR technology. Although the PC version of EA Sports FC’s console counterpart shared similar technical specifications and features, there is no indication yet that the system requirements have become significantly more demanding as a result.
Despite being a PC version, the EA Sports FC game still functions without an SSD; however, loading times can be painfully slow without one. The relatively small audience of EA Sports FC fans on PC may lead one to wonder if EA truly bothers about optimizing their game for this platform.
