HyperMotion2 Technology Enhances Realism
FIFA 23 introduces HyperMotion2, a motion capture and animation system that significantly boosts realism in player movements, ball physics, and on-pitch interactions. This results in smoother, more immersive gameplay across matches.
Massive Licensing and Game Modes
With over 19,000 players, 700+ teams, and 100 stadiums, FIFA 23 boasts unmatched authenticity. Modes like Career, Ultimate Team, Pro Clubs, and VOLTA offer a wide variety of ways to play, catering to casual players and football enthusiasts alike.
Improved Women’s Football Integration
For the first time, women’s club football is featured alongside international teams. This inclusion marks a major step for representation in the franchise and offers players more diversity in gameplay options.

Ultimate Team Still Dominated by Microtransactions
While addictive, the Ultimate Team mode continues to prioritize monetization. Players willing to spend real money often gain a significant advantage, making it difficult for free-to-play users to stay competitive.
Minimal Innovation Across Modes
Many core game modes, including Career and Pro Clubs, saw only minor updates compared to previous versions. Long-time fans may feel that FIFA 23 lacks meaningful new features or mechanics.
Occasional AI and Physics Flaws
Despite the improvements in realism, the AI can behave erratically—defenders mispositioning, goalkeepers reacting slowly, or awkward collisions. These glitches can sometimes undermine competitive matches or immersion.
