FC 24 Difficulty Levels

Difficulty Levels


Difficulty Levels have a crucial role in player engagement. They avoid players getting bored or frustrated if the game is too easy or hard. This balance is one of the biggest challenges for videogames designers.

The first time you play FC 24, it is prompted to you which difficulty level you want to assign to your profile.

In FC 24, there are seven difficulty levels when you play against CPU AI:

  • Beginner
    You have no experience playing FIFA/FC;
  • Amateur
    You have little to no experience playing FIFA/FC;
  • Semi-Pro
    You have experience playing FIFA/FC and play casually;
  • Professional
    You are experienced at FIFA/FC and want to be challenged;
  • World Class
    You are an expert at FIFA/FC;
  • Legendary
    You are an expert at FIFA/FC and want to face only the best;
  • Ultimate
    This harder level is only available in Squad Battles.

The way how each difficulty level affects the performance of AI during single-player matches is summarized below:

Adjusting the Difficulty Level in FC 24


You can change the difficulty settings that affect the behavior of AI-controlled opponents in FC 24. It allows you to tailor the challenge when playing against the computer to suit your preferences and current experience in the game.

You cannot change Difficulty settings at any time during a match, so as much as possible, choose one that you are comfortable playing on.

How To Change Difficulty Level in FC 24
  1. From the main Ultimate Team screen, navigate to [Settings];
  2. Select [Game Settings];
  3. Once in the ‘Game Settings’ screen, press R1/RB once to go to [Match];
  4. Scroll down to [Difficulty Level];
  5. Use the directional pad or left analog stick to set the difficulty to your desired level.
Your level affects game settings and can be changed before going to a match on the [Game Settings] screen.
Competitor Mode

Competitor Mode


When you turn on Competitor Mode, you face more challenging opponents that simulate the play style of some of the world’s best FC players.

Added to FIFA in 2020, it gives the CPU AI a better understanding of skill moves, dribbling, spacing, and tactics, and it will constantly look to create better scoring opportunities. You can expect aggressive passes, complex skill moves, and even a change of tactics and mentality if you are leading against them.

How To Enable Competitor Mode
  1. From the main Ultimate Team screen, navigate to [Settings];
  2. Select [Game Settings];
  3. Once in the ‘Game Settings’ screen, press R1/RB once to go to [Match];
  4. Scroll down to [Competitor Mode];
  5. Use the directional pad or left analog stick to turn it on.
You can only enable this feature on Legendary or Ultimate difficulties.

Player Based Difficulty


When you turn on the Player Based Difficulty setting, the best players on the CPU AI team will have enhanced intelligence while being controlled.

Added to FIFA in 2021, it doesn’t treat all players the same way. The difficulty level of the players is determined individually. For example, if you play against a CPU team at the professional level, the exceptional players on that team will stand out from the rest and behave as if they were playing at the next level up (world class). The same goes for the weakest players on the team: they act as if they were playing at the next level down (semi-pro).

How To Enable Player Based Difficulty
  1. From the main Ultimate Team screen, navigate to [Settings];
  2. Select [Game Settings];
  3. Once in the ‘Game Settings’ screen, press R1/RB once to go to [Match];
  4. Scroll down to [Player Based Difficulty];
  5. Use the directional pad or left analog stick to turn it on.
This feature is available in all difficulties.

Difficulty works differently in Squad Battles since you will always be asked to select an opponent’s difficulty after choosing the team you want to play against. This is because each difficulty level in Squad Battles rewards you with varying points. The harder difficulties will net you more points per match than lower difficulties.
