FIFA 21 is available a day early on next-gen systems for fans who purchased the game on the current-gen version. There are a number of gameplay videos surfacing, but most of them aren’t exactly capturing the beauty of 4K gameplay due to system limitations.
Operation Sports’ YouTube channel has not only found the right settings for 4K capture on the PlayStation 5, it has also put together a video that compares the game side-by-side to the PlayStation 4 version.
Take a look in the video below:

Early Impressions: The Biggest Differences
The haptic feedback in the PS5 controller continues to be a game-changer, and that’s especially the case in sports games. In FIFA on PS5, in addition to some resistance in the triggers when you’re controller a tiring player, you can feel a rumble from the eruption of a large crowd in one of the game’s massive stadiums.
It might be one of the most immersive usages of the technology I’ve felt in almost three weeks of gameplay.
The visual differences aren’t quite as noticeable. Closeups of players generate some stunning detail, but from the playable cameras, it’s tougher to see the upgrades. Quite honestly, with a game like world football, this is to be expected.
The gameplay feels solid, but I cannot say that I’m feeling a major difference on that front as of yet.
However, I will hone in on the areas of the game that were said to have be upgraded, and that will be my focus areas in my upcoming review.
Review is in Process
Expect to see a full review of the PS5 version of FIFA 21 by Monday, December 7.
