The highly anticipated EA Sports FC 25 has finally landed, offering significant improvements that will take the world of virtual football by storm, despite its official release date not being until September 27th. The inaugural title was quietly announced on September 25, marking a milestone in the sport’s history.
Yes, pause the soundtrack momentarily and welcome back, as this update may not be particularly substantial, yet it has still undergone a few refinements designed to help address issues that users have reported at early stages, thereby paving the way for future updates to deliver more significant enhancements.
As you may discover through the notes for FC 25, “Number One” – now available on PlayStation, Xbox consoles, as well as PC – addresses three key concerns.
By way of Final Crew, the issues addressed include “gamers potentially getting stuck on Target’s display screen when switching between shortcuts as Retailer” and “stability problems that may have arisen after a penalty shootout”.
As the game unfolded, it seemed that the psychological impact of a team’s player enthusiastically celebrating their goal while simultaneously mocking an opponent’s missed penalty attempt could significantly hinder the latter’s performance. The “opposite repair” is intended to correct instances where stability issues arose during match highlights and tournament broadcasts.
While recent updates were beneficial, many enthusiastic gamers on Twitter and Reddit eagerly await further swift resolutions to their ongoing issues. Despite some users claiming to still experience issues accessing the 10-hour free trial of the game ahead of its launch, EA has acknowledged the problem and provided a temporary workaround, albeit an imperfect one.
Another issue reported is a “secondary press glitch” where players become stuck on their character’s velocity and path once they hold down the RB or R1 button, despite this being a gameplay tweak. Until EA addresses this issue, which seems unlikely to happen anytime soon, it may remain unfixed until after the initial launch has settled down.
