Two New Gameplay Presets

  • Posted by Stellaol on September 9, 2025 at 8:36 am

    EA Sports FC 26 is set to redefine football simulation gaming with a wide range of community-led updates and gameplay improvements. From revamped controls to deeper customization options, the latest installment promises a more immersive and authentic football experience. Here’s everything players need to know before diving into FC 26.

    Two New Gameplay Presets

    One of FC 26’s major updates is the introduction of two distinct gameplay presets: Competitive and Authentic. Competitive mode emphasizes high player control, responsiveness, and precision, making it ideal for online modes such as Ultimate Team and Clubs. Authentic mode, on the other hand, focuses on realistic match tempo and a truer-to-life experience, perfect for offline play and Career Mode. EA Sports hopes this split will allow players to enjoy gameplay that aligns more closely with their preferred style.

    Refined Gameplay Fundamentals

    FC 26 builds upon a simple guiding principle: “make gameplay better.” Drawing heavily from community feedback, EA has overhauled several core mechanics, addressing longstanding issues. Improvements span dribbling, passing, shooting, tackling, goalkeeper reliability, and physicality, while match tempo has been fine-tuned to deliver a smoother and more authentic experience.

    Dribbling Overhaul

    Dribbling receives the most comprehensive update in FC 26. Players will notice improved agility, responsiveness, and touch consistency, thanks to dynamic dribbling and retuned intervals. Adjusted foot preference logic and refreshed animations, including sharper turns and faster jog dribbles, ensure short and tall players perform more realistically. Explosive acceleration and razor-sharp turns now make the fastest players feel appropriately quick, enhancing attacker-defender speed differentials.
