The PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of FIFA 21 are now available - for both digital and disc copies of the game.

The latest version of FIFA is free on next-gen consoles for anyone who has already bought the game on either PS4 or Xbox One. The textures, lighting and graphics are significantly improved, too.

The ball actually compresses when you kick it, which looks mighty impressive. With brand new “off-the-ball humanisation”, players carry out new animations such as a captain adjusting their armband or players pointing into space more realistically.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
