The team left no stone unturned for FIFA 22 and went all out in making a supremely-improved football game.
FIFA 22 will no doubt change over the course of the next couple months by way of patches stemming from community feedback, but if you're looking for a solid soccer title to scratch your footy itch then FIFA 22 is your game. There are plenty of modes to enjoy, online is solid as ever, and the gameplay is finally good enough to propose a rewarding challenge thanks in large part to the attacking/defending balance.
FIFA 22 makes some important changes on and off the pitch, and though there's still plenty of room for improvement, it's still the series' best game in recent years.
FIFA 22 has improved the smoothness of its feel and movement compared to its predecessor, but there have been few changes in mode and play.

As the sum of its parts, FIFA 22 is the best FIFA in years…and plays a strong game of football on the PS5. The decision to go more sim-heavy is long overdue, with finally a befitting pace and defensive posture to the beautiful game. Online contests – even with exploits via microtransaction supercharged players – are much more balanced. There's so much to do both online and offline, it's an easy recommendation for both casual and committed football fanatics.
It is hard to recommend buying FIFA at all this year. Like no other yearly release in the franchise, FIFA 22 is a game of thin margins.
FIFA 22 is the best FIFA game in years. HyperMotion pushes the action along, with a renewed focus on Career Mode more than welcome. It's a more refined, well-developed package this time around, and I'm excited to see where the series is headed in the future.
FIFA 22 offers a slower, more deliberate game of football on the pitch, and that's a good thing. But with minimal investment in new modes or updates to existing ones, this is a good upgrade, rather than an essential one.
If you've been avoiding FIFA for a long time, this edition is a great opportunity to change that and play some matches on virtual stadiums. If you're a regular, on the other hand, you're probably playing as we speak, but this time, you're probably fully satisfied. Right?

FIFA 22 is a clear step forward in the franchise, thanks mainly to the arrival of much-needed changes. It still misses a generational leap, but it is undoubtedly a great football game.

For those who haven't picked up a FIFA title in a few years, however, this is certainly the best time to jump back into the franchise, with a skew towards offensive soccer minds that will no doubt result in quicker pacing, attractive games, and a strong pick-up-and-play appeal for those just looking to play some soccer here and there.
Doing better than FIFA 21 was inevitable for FIFA 22. And the task was pretty busy, between a pleasant interface to handle, an ever more addictive Ultimate Team mode and a more defensive gameplay, this time. But some defects persist, others have emerged and overall, the container remains the same from one year to the next. If EA has made the choice to reform the form this season, and under the condition that the patches improve and do not destroy what has been put in place, it will be necessary for the developer to urgently look at the background, which purrs and would need to be fleshed out.

The EA Sports revolution comes to life in FIFA 22 for next gen, but in our opinion we are facing a starting point and certainly not a goal for Canadian football. The novelties guaranteed by Hypermotion Technology, a real pillar of this year's offer, give the scenic impact and gameplay a realism that is unprecedented for the series.

FIFA 22 is either the leap into a new generation, depending on the version, more or less of the same ... or the annual impudence.

For as much as FIFA 22 has done right with enhancements to the the on-field product, they seem perfectly content to not offer up new ways to engage with the sport. While HyperMotion helps bridge the realism gap that's been present for a bit, it isn't quite substantial enough to warrant calling it game-changing. This may be a positive step in the right direction for the franchise, but it's still quite a ways from genuinely raising the bar.
FIFA 22 actually feels different from the rest of the franchise, but it's still the same old game. New movement mechanics open up new strategies of scoring, but the AI still feels pretty dumb sometimes. Overall, it's a solid soccer experience that fans likely wont's miss out.

FIFA 22 offers a better game of football than before and a whole load of new features for PS5, Xbox Series consoles and Stadia. Shame it’s let down by countless bugs and a lack of true improvements in many modes.
FIFA 22 marks the third time EA has given us FIFA 19 with a different shirt on. It may clearly state Legacy Edition on the title, but being kicked in the groin isn't any less painful if your assailant tells you they're going to do it in advance. Once again, EA has insulted Switch owners by giving them the version it usually releases on dead systems. Do not accept it.
FIFA 22 presents itself at the kick-off of the season with a renewed edition, with the much-heralded Hypermotion Technology playing the role of the protagonist. On a technical level, the (numerous) new animations shine above all, while the game structure is partly detached from what has been seen in the past, proposing slightly slower games and with a lower incidence of skills. An interesting choice, which overall works quite well even with some calibration problems (on all goalkeepers) that we hope will be solved as soon as possible through patches.
