We can't willingly suspend our disbelief because every awkward animation or ridiculous shot looks so clangingly fake against the otherwise realistic presentation.Įven the FIFA team admits that it's reached the limits of what's possible on PS4 and Xbox One. As the generation winds to a close, the entire genre is trapped in a strange uncanny valley where ever-increasing sophistication only serves to highlight its weaknesses. This year's version was pretty good to start, but over the course of a handful of patches it devolved into the same muddy mess as its predecessors.

But there are benefits to throwing everything into graphics and gameplay.įor one thing, FIFA really needs to update the action on the pitch. In that regard it lags well behind the ambitious NBA 2K21, which overhauls virtually every aspect of its feature set in the course of making the leap to the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. No, the PS5 version won't be adding any new modes, nor will it be enhancing career mode in any meaningful way. Like its sibling series, Madden 21, FIFA is wholly focused on presentation and gameplay as it transitions to next-gen. Deferred lighting, a technique that allows the engine to render additional lights, will bring with it more complex environments and vibrant stadiums. According to EA, the next-gen update will feature such minute details as muscles flexing while a player runs, and the ball compressing when a sitter inevitably clangs off the post (okay, I added that last little detail, but it's a moment to which any FIFA player can relate).
Strand-based hair is just one of the enhancements on offer for FIFA 21 on PS5 and Xbox Series X.
It's part of a larger push toward extreme realism as the series makes the leap to the new console generation maybe not what Kojima had in mind when he extolled the virtues of his newly-created genre, but very much in keeping with EA's approach to its sports franchises. The updated version of EA's enormously popular soccer sim, set to release in December, will include "strand-based hair" among several other features-the better to appreciate Lionel Messi's beard of sadness whenever he decides to grow it back again. It seems EA heard the call, because it's creating a strand game of its own-the next-gen version of FIFA 21 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. It was just 18 months ago that Hideo Kojima tweeted his desire to create a whole new "strand" genre.
