EA chose the theme, Play Beautiful, to describe this year’s FIFA. From a development standpoint, realizing this came down to imbuing players with unprecedented levels of control, particularly on defense with mobility and locomotion. Defensive players will track the opposition, relying on swing steps in order to change direction while keeping their eyes locked on attackers. Building off this, the back line now operates as a unit to shut down attacks and provide the offense with little to no angles on goal. Specialties are assigned to different players based on their Physical Traits. This guide provides an overview and Physical Traits requirements that a player must fulfill in order to obtain a Specialty.

It’s quite difficult to keep up with skilled wingers like Bale and Ronaldo so a lot of people ended up just playing as Real Madrid. We didn’t feel the defence was as tight as it could be. Everyone loved how dribbling worked last year but it was quite difficult to keep up.” Consequently, the Fifa team has sought to make players feel more responsive while defending. One result is the new “swing step” move where defenders are able to quickly switch direction while running back toward their own goal in front of an attacking player.

In this gameplay, you are leaving the on-ball defense to the computer.
When playing online games, the computer level is around professional so they are pretty reliable but doesn’t mean you can defend on them. Playing off-ball defense provides you with a few more seconds on defense which allows you read your opponent’s next move and act accordingly.

The models have been created from scratch to represent female anatomy accurately.
