Fifa 21 will be available for older generation consoles from October 9, 2020. Also expected to arrive for PS5 and Xbox Series X
Electronic Arts has officially presented Fifa 21, the new chapter of the world’s most popular football simulation video game. The U.S. software house has shown during the EA Play Live 2020 the first trailer of the game: it is still difficult to understand what are the novelties of the new chapter, but Electronic Arts has announced that there will be improvements in graphics (especially on next-gen consoles) and gameplay.
The graphic power of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X has been used to make even more realistic the clashes of the game, the physicality of the players, but especially the movements within the field of play. The objective of Fifa 21 is to take another step forward and get as close as possible to the soccer played. The improvements in gameplay and graphics, unfortunately, will not be available on PS4 and Xbox One. The new face of Fifa 21 has not been announced, but all clues seem to lead towards the same name: Mbappè.
When Fifa 21 comes out
Fifa 21 is scheduled to launch on October 9, 2020 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and computers. You will be able to purchase the video game on Origin and Steam, while it is scheduled to arrive on Google Stadia in the winter. The video game will be available for next-gen consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series X) from launch day: those who will buy the digital copy of Fifa 21 for PS4 and Xbox One will be able to get the one for the new consoles for free.
In addition, there are extra bonuses for those who are members of EA Access and Origin Access Basic: they will be able to preview the title from October 1. Origin Access Premier members, on the other hand, will have full access to the title also from October 1.
Fifa 21 news
Not much is known about the news planned by Electronic Arts for Fifa 21. There are still several months until the official release of the video game and there will be time to unveil more news. For the moment, the U.S. publisher has confirmed that the edition for the next-gen consoles will benefit from the increased computing power of the new devices, making virtually zero loading between games and above all there will be more physicality in the field.
One of the major defects of soccer games, in fact, is the lack of physicality in direct confrontations. Questo porterà inevitabilmente anche a uno stravolgimento del gameplay.
