Delivering another strong outing, FIFA 20 proves once more that it's a football game truly to be reckoned with. There are issues, but few are serious enough to really mar the overall experience. Ultimately, FIFA 20 is fantastic, its new VOLTA Football mode being a particular joy, while FUT proves endlessly compelling yet again.

FIFA 20 introduces a hefty amount of novelties and pretty much all of them are successful – especially the Volta can give tons of fun. Unfortunately – the biggest flaws that have existed in the series for years are still here – painfully schematic gameplay doesn't promote creativity, and the artificial intelligence doesn't deserve the name. These elements render each FIFA a much less compelling experience.

This is the most enjoyment I’ve had kicking it around on the FIFA pitch since 2015 and should be this addition’s memorable stroke.

FIFA 2020 is a return to form for EA's blockbuster sports series. It still needs to improve in a few areas - Career mode, in particular - but new additions such as VOLTA and House Rules FUT are title-winning prospects.

The lack of changes to the gameplay are emblematic of the series as a whole. As PES continues to tweak its on-field game, FIFA tweaks the modes surrounding it. These tweaks are a success overall but the game finds itself lagging behind. Ultimately none of this matters. FIFA fans are going to continue to eat up the game and PES fans are going to continue to think of themselves as football purists. If you like FIFA, the new Volta mode is a ton of fun and the upgrades all around make it worthwhile. If you hate FIFA, this won't change your mind.

FIFA 20 does enough to deliver a strong footballing experience, but not all the changes hit the mark

Out of the box, FIFA 20 is the one of the poorest releases for the series in some time. The gameplay can't get out of its own way at times due to poor defensive fundamentals, while the career mode is littered with bugs that were fixed in past iterations. Volta appears to be the only mode without major issues because the gameplay there is expected to be different. FIFA is always prone to patches (for better or worse), so if you're on the fence be sure to keep your eyes open as this game will definitely change during the course of the season.

FIFA 20 doesn't stand out compared with its predecessor because it barely has no innovative improvements.

If you've enjoyed FIFA in the past, you'll still enjoy it now, but if its brand of football doesn't appeal to you, FIFA 20 isn't going to change your mind.

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.

FIFA 20 is one of the most balanced games in the series to date, and has finally slowed its frantic gameplay down a bit, but is not reinventing any of its modes and core mechanics as it looks like a transition title

FIFA 20 feels like it might be a more divisive entry than usual.

Volta would have certainly kept the FIFA 20 team busy what with the new assets and all that, but since the game doesn't need the same thought and strategy like its big brother, it's in service of a product that's ultimately less than the sum of its parts.

For all the scathing comments about FUT's predatory and disgusting practices, it cannot be denied that FIFA 20 is still a great game.

FIFA 20 is a better football simulation in overall compared to FIFA 19, but it’s still lagging behind its main competitor greatly. EA is losing the race to Konami, at least in this generation of consoles, where they used to dominate..

This year strategy for FIFA 20 defines what we can call a base game, unfortunately, everything else feels uninspired except for VOLTA. This mode that captures the street nature of the game, has been a pleasant surprise and tons of fun.F

If what they had in mind was a little better than mediocrity, than the game is a resounding success. I can only hope that the developers understand this type of incremental improvements are no longer enough, and that's it's time for a new kind of wheel.

New modes are always a welcome addition, but when the issues the game has are related to the most important aspect of the game, which is the gameplay, then the overall experience become more of a challenge to adapt and live with all these issues instead of being a fun competitive experience.

FIFA 20 brings the franchise back to great form after last year's minor deviation. It plays a solid game of virtual football, and if you're mostly focused on online modes, there's plenty to do. Volta makes for a great addition, and offsets the lack of progress in Career mode.
