The positive is that it appears FIFA 23 Coins heard my pleas for an improved Volta Arcade, so I take full credit for the fact that it's now been expanded into a moreish battle royale mode that includes silly minigames as well as obstacle courses that recall the best parts of Fall Guys. It's still a bit risible being only available at weekends however.

 

Quelle surprise! Ultimate Team has received the highest amount of attention. Additionally, the team training mode I've long desired has come with FUT Moments. Moments provides bite-sized pockets of FIFA games through rewarding challenges designed to challenge your physical shape and find out how the various cards can work together.

 

The game is still in its early stages, but there's tantalising scope to chronicle player careers and recreate a storied moment in football's history by using this mode. The current version contains highlights from the golden years of Jurgen Klopp and Kylian Mbappe. However, in the coming year's game, it would be awesome to see what EA's team can create with other legends of football like Pele and 'King' Kazuyoshi Miura.

 

Additionally, there are major changes to the chemistry system. Chemistry is no longer influenced by a player's location in the formation in relation to other players. This is a change that enables greater diversification across teams and countries. I'm not sure it's going to alter the strategy of any player however it's great to know that you can add wildcard players and have more opportunities to connect them with top division players.

 

The search for the perfect midfielder to achieve that coveted "33" chemistry is very similar to the idea of a Squad Building Challenge now, it's almost like a deliberate. These challenges are an excellent way to spend some time doing nothing, but EA's'sudoku for football enthusiasts' is best played with the app that comes with it, away from Ultimate Team's unresponsive console menus.

 

In a dark signpost to the football game licensing wars to be in the near future, FIFA has lost the J1 League license this year this year, meaning that there will be no King Kazu. The result was a pivot to an equally exciting Bronze as well as Silver Australian A League team, featuring the feared strike force of Hibs forward Martin Boyle and cheap FIFA 23 Coins the aptly named David Ball. Much like last year my team, which was my least favorite, caused several angry exits from rivals sporting million-coin outfits which exposed Ultimate Team as a gilded farce.
