Should You Buy EA FC 26 on PS4 Slim? Gameplay Review
Welcome back to Barely A Gamer! Today I tested EA FC 26 on my PS4 Slim, and… well, let’s just say it feels all too familiar. Here’s my honest review and first impressions. ⸻ ⚽ What’s New (Sort of…) • As expected, rosters and kits are updated for the new season. • A few player faces and animations look slightly improved, but nothing game-changing. • Ultimate Team is still the main reason to buy if you’re into online competitive play. ⸻ ❌ What’s Missing & Disappointing • No Brazil National Team this year, which feels strange and disappointing. • Volta Football is gone — one of the more fun casual modes, removed completely. • The menu is still laggy compared to current-gen consoles. ⸻ 🎮 Performance on PS4 Slim • Matches run at a stable 60fps and feel smooth as always. • Menus stutter a bit, which is frustrating, but the in-game performance is still solid. • Graphically, it’s the same as the last few years — no major upgrades. ⸻ ⚖️ Final Thoughts • If you’re into Ultimate Team, this is a no-brainer since that’s where the focus is. • If you mostly play career mode, offline matches, or couch multiplayer, then EA FC 25 is basically the same experience — no need to spend full price again. • It feels like EA is charging for the same game every year on PS4, and this year they’ve even removed content. 👉 My verdict: Skip this one unless you live for Ultimate Team. ⸻ 🎮 Game: EA Sports FC 26 🕹️ Console Played On: PS4 Slim 📅 Release Date: 2025 ⚽ Genre: Sports, Football/Soccer Simulation ⸻ 📌 Follow me for more reviews & gameplay: ➡️ YouTube: / @barelyagamer1 ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/barelyagame... ➡️ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@barelyagamer?... ➡️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?... ⸻ 🎯 Hashtags (YouTube) #EAFC26 #PS4Slim #gameplay #easportsfc #barelyagamer #gaming #ps4 #fifa #fifamobile #ps5 #football #footballgame #eafc #playstation ⸻ 🏷️ YouTube Tags (comma-separated) ea fc 26 ps4 slim review, ea fc 26 ps4 gameplay, ea sports fc 26 review, ea fc 26 vs ea fc 25, ea fc 26 performance ps4 slim, ea fc 26 ps4 slim menu lag, fifa replacement 2025, ea fc 26 honest review, barely a gamer football, playstation, ps4 slim, ps5, fifa on ps4, fifa mobile, fifa mobile 26, ea fc mobile, ea fc 26, new games on ps4, best football games, football, soccer, best soccer games
