FIFA 21 features

The developer will offer controller haptics, faster load times, and improved visuals, immersion, and player movement on FIFA 21. The game also promises improved visuals with a new deferred lighting system that brings more detail to every part of the game. The player faces, hair, kits, and uniforms benefit from dynamic lighting, and a better-defined physique. 

Players will also respond more fluidly and with enhanced animations in FIFA 21, thanks to what EA Sports calls “stats-driven player movement”. EA said that in endgame situations, players will scream for passes or adjust their shin pads. In case a last minute screamer is scored, you will see reactions from the playing XI, on the bench, and in the stands.
