BEYOND OVERALL RATINGS

Brand new to EA SPORTS FC™ 24, PlayStyles dimensionalise athletes, making them more authentic by interpreting real-world player data from Opta and other sources into signature abilities which heighten the realism and individuality of each player. These are broken up into two tiers.

PlayStyles are the signature abilities that make players more unique and help them stand out on the pitch.

PlayStyles+ are those signature abilities only world-class players have, essentially elevating a given PlayStyle from special to spectacular. 

Explore all 34 different PlayStyles below, each with a description of how that PlayStyle or PlayStyle+ affects gameplay.
