PlayStyles optimised by Opta. Optimised by real-world Opta, PlayStyles dimensionalise athletes, going beyond overall ratings to bring to life the on-pitch abilities that make players special. Each PlayStyle affects gameplay, giving players unique capabilities you’ll see and feel that make their way of playing more authentic. PlayStyles+ enhance those signature abilities to a world-class standard—think Haaland’s Power Shot, or Sam Kerr’s Finesse Shot—reflecting elite players’ abilities to play at a level that few others can reach.
Note: Goalkeeper specific PlayStyles are limited for EA SPORTS FC 24. Most of them have only regular AI behaviour. PlayStyle and PlayStyle+ buffs are limited to Be a Goalkeeper modes (Player Career and Clubs).
