WTMG’s Leo Faria: “The minute improvements seen in EA Sports FC 26 were enough to make it feel superior to its handful of predecessors. Most importantly, the addition of the simulation-focused, more realistic “Authentic” mode, with its heavier physics and less competitive-minded gameplay. Slight touches in its visuals, music selection, and control responsiveness aren’t as noticeable, but are still worth mentioning. I still don’t think this is a game changer in the franchise, or in football gaming as a whole, but after years of diminishing returns, seeing the slightest of improvements instead of just more of the same is already enough to make me recommend EA Sports FC 26 over a good chunk of its predecessors.”
