EA Sports FC 27 reveals gameplay updates for defending and passing

EA Sports FC 27 announced gameplay changes today, focusing on manual defending, smarter attacking runs, and refined passing mechanics. The game reduces AI auto-defending and interception reach, rewarding players who engage in manual defending. Manual jockeying and stand tackles receive performance boosts, while through passes and dinked passes align more closely with player aim, requiring precision and power control. These enhancements aim to create a more intentional and skill-driven experience for players.
