The gameplay is characterized by a mix of enjoyable passing mechanics and cumbersome dribbling, hindered by an awkward jumping mechanic to evade tackles. While it adheres to traditional football elements without flashy moves, it lacks expected features like replays and penalty shootouts, though minor improvements and enhanced AI have been noted. Overall, the gameplay remains similar to previous iterations, appealing to fans of arcade-style sports games.
“Gameplay stays true to the beautiful game without any fancy tricks or special moves, yet lacks some features you might expect to see like replays, cards, extra time, and penalty shootouts.”
“There are actually a couple of minor gameplay improvements, but for this sort of game - an arcadey button basher - does that really matter?”
“You can put some nice ground passing moves together if you choose a far away camera angle and can see your players on the pitch, yet the dribbling seems cumbersome with a stupid jumping mechanic to avoid the onslaught of sliding tackles.”
“I haven’t quite got the lob mechanics figured out yet, so I never really used any long passes in my build-up play.”
“Gameplay is basically the same, with the much-needed improved AI from the last major updates, and so are the graphics and the general cartoony art.”
