FIFA 20 Reviews
Beneath the fireworks and confetti, FIFA 20’s lacking match fitness.
FIFA 20 brings back street football along with some significant core engine changes, but do they make 2020 a must-have year for fans of the franchise?
The beautiful game at its most glorious, and its most grotesque.
Volta brings new life into the series, but on the whole FIFA 20 is an adequate but underwhelming entry into the series.
The restoration (in all but name) of FIFA Street and long-awaited upgrade to career mode finally make FIFA a game worth exploring beyond Ultimate Team
FIFA 20's finer gameplay moments are overshadowed by the series' overall malaise
The best parts may carry over, but the new flashes make it all worth revisiting
FIFA returns with the Street-like Volta Football, an Ultimate Team battle pass, and--finally--improvements to Career Mode. But is it enough to keep FIFA 20 top of the table?
Without much cosmetic polish to fall back on, FIFA 20 needed to bring something new to the table. Although the core gameplay isn’t mind-blowingly different, it’s still the best football game, and the addition of VOLTA is a whole new way to play.
FIFA 20 has Volta at the center of its marketing and successfully introduces a mode that has real potential, but it's not the experience that reinvents the franchise.
Volta is a brilliant addition to FIFA and the gameplay is better than ever, but a few own goals hold FIFA 20 back from greatness.
A superb game of football yet again, but some changes are better than others. FIFA 20 is still a great game fit to bursts with a mode for everyone.
FIFA 20 is fun, which is the most important thing. The developers in charge of gameplay have done just about all they can do to make this title a joy on the virtual pitch. It’s shortcomings are because of a lack of innovative improvements to core modes. That keeps it as a really good game, but a notch below great.
FIFA 20 excellent Volta mode, engaging changes to Ultimate Team, and potentially cool features to Career Mode don't make up for subpar soccer gameplay.
The most complete game of the saga. FIFA 20 takes everything good from previous years and adds the futsal with Volta Football, its new and exciting story mode.

FIFA 20's Volta mode is a stellar new addition, but other tweaks are less impressive.
While FIFA 20 is bogged down by the same issues that have plagued it for years, it does enough to set itself apart as a worthy installment.
It isn't a masterpiece but it's a massive improvement on FIFA 19, with a sprinkling of new features – Volta in particular – that should lay the foundations for the series' future.
FIFA 20 is pretty much what you'd expect from a new FIFA game. FIFA Ultimate Team continues to march on and grow, card packs and all, while the core gameplay has been tweaked, making attacking play feel great as you rip defences apart. The big new feature is Volta Football, and while it's a fun distraction, it's not quite as engaging as its FIFA Street predecessors.
FIFA 20 looks like another step up for the FIFA franchise, even if probably not so wide and brave as we could expect. Anyway, gameplaywise the new physics, the slower pace and a solid 1 on 1 defense open a whole new world in terms of approach and styles of play. The very new game mode Volta brings the street soccer back to videogames and it's simply a love letter to the spirit of football lived as fun.
