FIFA 19 has a lot of content and features to entertain players offline and online for hours. It still has authenticity with what is needed to let us feel we have conrol over a broadcasted football game. It is a better version than FIFA 18 but it is still too keen on delivering a too spectacular soccer experience at all cost.

In general FIFA 19 came to sweep in almost all fields in which it competes with PES 2019, without this meaning that it is better game. For the fans it will be a great experience and for those who have just arrived, they will find a very complete product that will give them hours of fun.

When it comes to virtual soccer, FIFA 19 is the clear leader of the pack, with what is arguably the best entry in years.

'FIFA 19' is a well-designed if completely unsurprising soccer game.

FIFA 19 is a great game, packed with plenty of detail. It isn't a huge step forward in terms of raw gameplay, but the sheer amount of stuff to do will mean you keep coming back for more.

While the underwhelming finale of Alex Hunter story and the lack of meaningful changes seen by some of the modes will be frustrating for some fans, FIFA 19 is generally a huge step forward for the series and shines in the ways that matter most. Ultimate Team has been made more appealing by a fairer and more rewarding structure, but it's the gameplay changes that add fluidity, precision, and reliability to the play that make FIFA 19 the best game the series has seen this generation.

Football is a game of two halves. It’s been that way for a while and, for a long time, the FIFA series has offered a fun rendition of the sport in a digital world. With FIFA 19 they look to add a bit more to it, with a level of customisation to the games not seen before in the series.

Despite some major flaws (lack of changes in the career mode, some license mishaps and others), FIFA 19 is pretty much the best game in the series. Authentic European finals will astound every fan of virtual football and the perfect House Rules mode provides some truly excellent fun.

More and more each year it feels like EA could just charge for an upgrade pack rather than a full game.

It's easy to overlook, but the most meaningful enhancement is the overhaul of Kick Off

While Kick-Off's party games in particular are a highlight, FIFA 19 improves upon last year's outing in almost every department. One of the best football games around, FIFA 19 delivers the most fluid and fun entry yet, and is the kick up the backside the series needed. Back of the net.

All together now, and sing "THE CHAMPIONS!" EA Vancouver returns to the pitch with 19. Joining the party this year is a contest of the highest order; a notable omission that is now front-and-center in another well done entry.

FIFA 19 is really solid overall with what feels like more changes than we've seen in the last few years combined. Ultimately, when you're making this many fundamental changes to a soccer game, you're going to have certain aspects that lack a little bit of polish, but it'll be interesting to see how EA continues to balance and improve the game over time. I also wonder at this point whether the next few years will be spent polishing this fresh feeling experience or if EA will continue to mix up the tested formula.

FIFA has its ups and downs, going through years when the company seems to care more about swaying grass and player celebrations than tactics or responsiveness. Happily, FIFA 19 is one of the good ones.

Compared with Pro Evolution Soccer 2019, FIFA 19 makes a much more obvious progress, and I believe it's one of the finest game in the series.

It's a great start, though, and the big match atmosphere is fantastic — bringing these competitions back to FIFA has been something I've been hopeful of for many years, and EA has delivered in spades.

FIFA 19 is an impressive continuation of the series, which tweaks the experience in different places and once again offers players a plethora of modes to enjoy.

While in the last few years, FIFA games have been focused on making flashy, headline improvements in terms of modes or presentation, FIFA 19 instead chooses to make those improvements on the pitch. Off the pitch, there's not quite as much to talk about (other than the excellent House Rules Kick-Off matches), which is obviously a little disappointing, but thanks to a consciously slowed down pace and much more involved and methodical on-pitch gameplay, FIFA 19 proves to be a solid upgrade, and an excellent simulation of the beautiful game.
