EA Sports FC 25 Could Completely Change What It Means to Be a Footballing Sim With New Mode
Another year, another football sim from EA Sports.
EA faces some challenging times ahead with the upcoming release of EA Sports FC 25. The next installment in its popular series is all set to bring football sim players a brand new game for them to enjoy, although some fans of the franchise feel that it’s too early for the studio to release a new game since FC 24 will only be around a year old when the new title comes out.
However, EA Sports FC 25 does make some promising new additions to the series that could turn things around for the company. With new game modes and gameplay mechanics focused on keeping players in the action instead of digging through menus, the upcoming release could be a game-changer for the company.
EA Sports FC 25 Brings Something New to the Table
The latest entry to EA’s iconic series could prove to be quite the hit with its new Rush Mode, which sees 5 players in each team compete in an exciting new format. From a revamped kick-off mechanic in which players rush to the halfway line to gain control of the ball to a new way of handling fouls in-game, Rush Mode could be a great addition to the game.

However, Rush Mode is not the only new change that EA Sports FC 25 is bringing to the table, with the new FC IQ system that allows players more control over what their teammates are doing on the pitch, creating a lot of scope for excellent set-ups and plays that may not have been possible with older titles. Changes to the Career Mode and Clubs could also prove to be excellent differentiators for the new title.
Can the New Changes Help EA Turn Things Around?
While FC 25’s new features certainly show a lot of promise, fans of the franchise have been critical of EA Sports choosing to release a new game every year, feeling that the practice limits how fresh each successive title feels for players.
It is a valid concern which is further brought to the fore considering how EA Sports College Football 25 was able to achieve success on a massive scale after a long hiatus since its previous release.
However, player reactions to the post below showcasing Rush Mode’s new features shine a ray of hope for the studio, as they seem to be quite excited to try it out.
It seems that the new features have managed to get the attention of a few fans who may have been concerned about the upcoming title if they were not added to it.
Other players are a little more than cautiously optimistic, feeling that Rush Mode could be a lot of fun to play.
For some players, Rush Mode seems to have influenced an immediate pre-order.
Players do not have to wait too long to find out if these features are worth the cost of a new game, as EA Sports FC 25 releases in September this year.
They would certainly hope that EA’s annual tradition continues to pay off.
