The AI has received a big upgrade in EA Sports FC 25. This means that in-game players will be smarter. Computer-controlled players have better forward runs, adapt faster, and change their behavior. Players will react differently to situations during the match and adjust their playstyle to this. You can adjust all those tactics in FC IQ. This makes FC 25 even more realistic than FC 24, so you can immerse yourself in the game even more.

EA Sports FC 25 continues to run on the Frostbite Engine. The gameplay does change, thanks to new Hypermotion Technology technology. Corners kicks will get new features and animations. This way, you can choose which player you want to place at the first or second post, or on the edge of the penalty area. Player instructions also change, allowing you to completely customize your field game. Do you want to give a tactical masterclass? Show your football knowledge on the digital field.

The most important game mode in FC 25 has received a lot of updates. Division Rivals will have a new reward system, relegation is an option again, and the season is now based on points instead of wins. This year, you can also store your duplicate Ultimate Team players in the Duplicate Storage, where you can store up to 100 players. Evolutions will also receive a major update, so you can develop your favorite players even better.

Career is better than before. For example, you can also play with Icons in career mode this year. This means you can replay the career of legends like Robin van Persie. You can also play with a player from your career in the new game mode Rush. This way, you can develop your player even faster. We also know that you'll jump into the real soccer season. Is your favorite club in trouble? You can jump in as manager and save your club from relegation.

Pro Clubs is completely renewed. The progression system is different and there's no longer a limit for your professional development. The game mode now also feels more like a manager career, where you develop your club together with your friends. Unlock new stadiums, decorations, and tifosi to give your home turf a special look. Your computer-controlled teammates are also better and smarter thanks to the adjustments to the AI.

Volta was introduced in a big way in FIFA 20, but it'll disappear from the game in this version. It's replaced by Rush in FC 25, a 5v5 game mode. This mode is linked to Ultimate Team and Pro Clubs. Choose your player, play minigames or smaller field matches, and complete challenges. This is an additional way to develop your player. Rush is an online game mode and you can play alone or with friends. This'll earn you rewards for both FUT and Pro Clubs.
