Test Conclusion
Test note
1.8
Well
After the standstill of the past years, FIFA 22 feels on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S as a reboot. Especially the changes in the passport and positioning game are the football simulation well to face. FIFA connoisseurs must change and find new strategies for goal success and defense. However, there are also weaknesses: especially in the multiplayer, the speed of the players remains the most important weapon. Defense problems support this problem and lead into standard ratchets for flexing the opposing defensive. Overall, however, the improvements outweigh themselves and also pull through the big game modes. Especially the player career benefits from the innovations, and also FIFA Ultimate Team is playable and fairer than in the previous year. FIFA 22 is the long hoped for next step - not perfect, but nevertheless succeeded.

Welcome to FIFA 20! Last year was the headline for testing FIFA 21 . The reason: The innovations held themselves in borders - the football simulation of developers EA Canada felt in many places as well as warmed by yesterday. Only the later subsequent Next-Generation update for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S brought improvement. But it manifested the impression that the change would come first with FIFA 22 . And in fact, the makers present the successor FIFA 22 appearing on 1 October 2021, especially on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S as a pioneer of a new FIFA generation.
Pay attention to the right version!
With FIFA 22 EA Sports controls his part to the change of console generations: The football simulation looks better on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S and has exclusive game mechanics such as hypermotion animation technology. In contrast to the previous year s message FIFA 21 Publisher EA Sports renounces a free NEXT generation update. If you still have an old console, but the purchase of PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X / S plans, should immediately strike at the 100 Euro Expensive Ultimate Edition. This includes both versions - those for the old and the new console generation.
PC players are once again in this year: no matter how powerful their system may be FIFA 22 on the PC is only the technically easy-to-drilled variant for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. And unfortunately, FIFA 21 is very similar, which is why our test lays the focus on the PS5 version provided by the manufacturer.
Better than every workout
Although EA Sports omitted in contrast to previous years on pure story species such as The Journey or most recently Volta, but starts in the Next-Gen version with an atmospheric tutorial. In this, they control their previously created avatar, which was invited to trial training at Paris St. Germain. Since the wannabe professional but overshoots, they trains with the ball at the foot initially the way through the French capital and get to know the new features of the game. Arrived in the stadium, take part in the tryout on the side of Thierry Henry, before she later deny the Champions League final between Paris St. Germain and the FC Chelsea itself.
EA SPORTS creates such an atmospheric and well-implemented entry into the sports game. In terms of mood and technology, FIFA 22 does not make anything anyway: the game is a successful stadium atmosphere, detailed player models and greatly improved animations of the most beautiful series part so far. However, looking at the licenses for clubs and national teams reveals unusually many holes. Not only that known clubs like Juventus Turin are missing. Also, many selection teams such as Switzerland, Turkey, Slovenia, Colombia and Cameroon did not build into play.
Improvements in the square
FIFA 22 makes a tremendous progress on the PlayStation 5 compared to the previous year. The combination of hypermotion gameplay technology and many small improvements ensures a significantly more modern and sophisticated gaming experience. The teams are moving coherent on the field: players are more direct, but just defend themselves in the shortfall. Dribblings remain an alternative at counterparts or for bridging the midfield. The short pass game in midfield works better and faster. The only hook: The computer wingers act too offensively and tearfully tear gaps in their own defense. In the game one-counter-one, the more smiled offensive forces too often have an advantage. All in all, however, FIFA 22 feels more about real football. There is more small-small, which you need to bridge the help of passes or wing changes.
Dribblings benefit from the individual properties of the players. Especially flats like the French superstar Kylian Mbappé, who also decorates the FIFA 22 cover, opponents oppagers effortlessly and bring themselves in position. On the other hand, EA Sports strengthens the goalkeeping game: Manuel New & Co. acts more offensive and occasionally almost collateral. At the same time, televisions lose at risk because the keepers stand better on the line. All in all, FIFA 22 delivers the overall vocal football product than in the previous year. The fresh animations look great and in conjunction with the better players behavior and the upgraded ball physics massive influence on the gameplay.
No story, but improved game modes
For the game modes, EA Sports relies on the usual mixture, but extends these options to smaller and larger changes. In the Stre-Kick Volta, for example, the history presented in the previous year is missing, but in turn there are special skills and a skill display for the use of these talents. Especially the Volta Arcade Playlist goes even more towards Fifa Street than in the previous year. The career mode also gives functions. In the Manager Runway, you now create your own club and even fit the stadium. This is not brand new, but generates good mood. In the player career, they now equip their avatar as in a role-playing game with fresh talents and thus improve their skills. Here it gets stronger on training services in mini-games and the completion of the game goals. This is worth a second view for FIFA connoisseurs - despite smaller balancing weaknesses.
FIFA Ultimate Team, the most popular game mode of the FIFA series, has also expanded EA SPORTS: The preview function already tested in FIFA 21 before buying card packs with new players has now been integrated for more fairness. This first step has succeeded, but does not change the fact that Pay to Win continues to be in FUT. Overall, EA Sports focuses on more variety, additional objectives and fairer match rules. However, the next few months will show only whether the matchmaking in the Rivals division really works. EA SPORTS also adapts the Pro Clubs: Here players now also with female kickers in the place allowed, and there is a new upgrade system that should motivate longer term.
Release: FIFA 22 appears on 1 October 2021 for PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S and PC. The price is in the standard version between 60 and 70 euros. Buyers of the 100 Euro expensive Ultimate Edition may already be on the place from 27 September 2021.
