EA Sports FC 24 Reveals Title Update 11 Patch Notes Ahead of Season 5

03/12/2024 02:57 pm EDT

Season 4 in EA Sports FC 24 is winding down this week, which means a new season pass for players to work through in Ultimate Team. It's also a perfect time for developer Electronic Arts to drop a chunky new patch into EA Sports FC 24. Earlier today, the team announced it's doing just that with Title Update 11, which is coming to EA FC 24 soon. The Spring Update includes a "refresh" of several PlayStyles. Most of these PlayStyle changes are relatively small, but a few, including Power Shot and Aerial, have had more substantial changes that players will have to get used to when the patch goes live.

Of course, there are many more changes on the horizon besides the PlayStyles refresh. Players will notice several changes to AI opponents, particularly when playing on Legendary difficulty. The patch also includes several visual fixes in Ultimate Team, hopefully leading to a clearer experience. Finally, EA has implemented a few general fixes, including 86 new star heads to up the realism in EA Sports FC 24.

Below, you'll find the full patch notes for Title Update 11. EA Sports FC 24 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms.
