Gameplay
| Setting | Options |
| PRESETS | |
| PRESET The Competitive preset is always enabled in online competitive matches. The following settings are affected by the Competitive preset: auto shots, assisted headers, auto-flair pass, through-pass assistance, lobbed-through pass assistance, auto clearances, jockey, defending. |
Default Competitive |
| SHOOTING | |
| AUTO SHOTS Players will take automatic shots on goal in situations where the player has a short reaction time within the six-yard box. |
On Off |
| ASSISTED HEADERS Header Assistance for passes and shots facilitates a mora casual gameplay experience. If disabled, headed shots are manual, and can potentially be more accurate for experienced players. | On Off |
SHOT ASSISTANCE Shot direction will be partially assisted, fully assisted or the direction you aim is the direction the shots travels. | Precision Assisted Manual |
| PASSING | |
AUTO FLAIR PASS Players will automatically perform Flair Passes in the appropriate situations. If disabled, players will perform Flair Passes only when holding L2/LT. | On Off |
THROUGH PASS ASSISTANCE Through Pass direction and power are both partially or fully assisted, or the direction you aim is the direction the pass will travel. | Semi Assisted Manual |
LOBBED THROUGH PASS Lobbed Through Pass direction and power are both partially or fully assisted, or the direction you aim is the direction the pass will travel. | Semi Assisted Manual |
GROUND PASS ASSISTANCE Ground Pass direction and power are both partially or fully assisted, or the direction you aim is the direction the pass will travel. | Semi Assisted Manual |
CROSS ASSISTANCE Cross direction and power are both partially or fully assisted, or the direction you aim is the direction the cross will travel. | Semi Assisted Manual |
LOB PASS ASSISTANCE Lob Pass direction and power are both partially or fully assisted, or the direction you aim is the direction the pass will travel. | Semi Assisted Manual |
PASS RECEIVER LOCK The pass receiver is locked as late as possible, is locked at the time when the kicking animation begins, or is locked as soon as the button is released or the power bar reaches full power. | Late Animation Start Power Up |
PRECISION PASS SENSITIVITY Adjust the speed of Precision aim. At a high sensivity, the aim will always match your Left Stick angle input, making it more responsive, yet more challenging, to aim precisely. | Normal High |
| DEFENDING | |
AUTO CLEARANCES Players automatically perform Clearances in the appropriate situations, when needed. If disabled, outfield players will only perform Clearances when the button is pressed. | On Off |
CLEARANCE ASSISTANCE When set to Classic, clearances direction and power are both fully assisted. When set to Directional, it considers your directional input. Power remains fully assisted, and the earliest possible contact point will be selected. | Classic Directional |
JOCKEY When set to Assisted,player speed will be adjusted automatically, to help the player remain in close proximity to opponents. When set to Manual, there is no speed or directional assistance. | Assisted Manual |
DEFENDING Legacy Defending (unavailable in competitive preset) allows you to run towards the ball and tackle automatically just by holding the button. Advanced Defending gives you the freedom to choose your tackle type. Tactical Defending allows you to time your tackles and maintain your position. It will contextually choose, depending on a player’s position, between a standing tackle and a more physical tackle. | Legacy Advanced Tactical |
PROFESSIONAL FOULS Enable/Disable the ability for you to trigger on-demand Professional Fouls. This only affects the Professional Fouls triggered by doing the designated input for them. | On Off |
PASS BLOCK ASSISTANCE AI and user controlled players will attempt to intercept a pass automatically when the ball is close by. If disabled, the user controlled players will remain in position, and interceptins must be triggered manually. | On Off |
| SWITCHING | |
AUTO SWITCHING When auto is selected, the game will automatically switch to the best player for you. If Only on Air Balls is active, the game will only switch players on lobs and crosses. If Only on Loose Balls is active, the game will only switch players on Losse Balls and Crosses. | Manual Only on Loose Balls Only on Air Balls On Air and Loose Balls Automatic |
AUTO SWITCHING MOVE ASSISTANCE Auto Switch Move Assistance keeps the player who you have auto switched to moving in their current direction for a period of time. This gives you time to orient your intended direction for the new player. The higher the assistance level, the longer the period of time the player will run. | None Low High |
RIGHT STICK SWITCHING When Adaptive is selected, holding the right stick for longer will switch to more distant players as soon as you release it. When Classic is active, flicking the right stick switches to the very next player standing in the direction you are poiting towards. When Player Rotation is active, flicking will move the next player switch indicator but won’t switch the player. | Adaptive Classic Player Rotation |
RS SWITCHING REFERENCE The player who you control or the ball act as the center point of reference for any Right Stick switching | Player Relative Ball Relative |
RS SWITCHING SENSITIVITY Adjust the sensitivity for right stick switching (classic, adaptive, or rotation). The higher the sensitivity, the more the game will respect your directional input when selecting next player. The lower the sensitivity, the more likely the game is to select a player in closer proximity, even if the directional is not pointed directly at them. | From 0 to 10 |
NEXT PLAYER SWITCHING While defending, press L1/LB to switch to the next-best available player on the pitch: Classic (the best player will be determined by various factors); Goal Side (this setting favors players on the goal side of the ball); Closest to Ball (this setting favors players who are closer to the ball). | Classic Closest to Ball Goal Side |
REACTION TIME CALIBRATION When the Next Player Switch indicator is turned on (default), an icon appears over the head of the player you will switchro when pressing L1/LB. This icon updates constantly based on the match situation. In some instances, the icon can change during the natural reaction window that exists between you thinking about player switching and actually pressing L1/LB. The Reaction Time Calibration takes into account, switching you to the player that was indicated when you initially thought about switching. This setting has no impact on right stick switching or the speed with which inputs are processed. | On Off |
REACTION TIME CALIBRATION SENSITIVITY Use this setting to fine tune the duration of the Reaction Time Calibration window. | From 0 to 10 |
PLAYER LOCK You can lock onto a player by pressing right and left sticks. Switch off of that player by flicking the right stick. | On Off |
| DRIBBLING | |
SIMPLIFIED SKILL MOVES Advanced Skill Moves are possible using right stick gestures and modifiers | On Off |

CAMERA PAN SPEED While holding L1/LB using L will pan the Pro camera at the set speed. | Manual Semi Assisted |
