FIFA 21 Preview: Attack Destroys Defence in Early Gameplay Hands-on

EA Sports made it very clear it isn't ready to talk about the next-gen during our first hands-on with the PlayStation 4 version of FIFA 21.

It's a curious stance—players are excited and promotion is being led with the PS5 and Xbox Series X in mind—but for now, the tried and tested hardware is the focus for showing off what's new for the October 9 release.

So, what is new? FIFA 21 feels similar to its predecessor in terms of speed, but EA has introduced a handful of advanced options that aim to give you more precision and control over your team, particularly in attack.
