Believe it or not, this is the same statement (aside from the games' titles) that has been said about FC 24 Coins: Legacy Edition and FIFA 21: Legacy Edition, so yes, FC 24 : Legacy Edition's gameplay is based on FIFA 19. The joke about FIFA games being glorified roster updates is quite literally the case for Nintendo Switch owners.

 FC 24 : Legacy Edition currently has two reviews on Metacritic, a 20 from IGN, and a 20 from Nintendo Life; truth be told, these could be considered generous.

One gameplay issue that was synonymous with the FIFA series for many years was how overpowered pace was. Players simply needed to select players with the best pace stats, regardless of their technical abilities, and watch them rush around the pitch, scoring goals for fun like human Rocket League cars. This issue got to the point where players would play full-backs as center backs to help try and combat the strength of through balls to quick strikers.

Like in real life, fast players are still a great tool to have in FC 24. though the abilities of technical and defensive-minded players have become far more essential, making teams more well-rounded and realistic.

As far as sports-based games go, no franchise comes close to FIFA. The series has kept things at a very high level for the most part, which is remarkable considering the longevity of this franchise. This has allowed it to be among the best IPs owned by EA Games, a trend that continues to this day.

Although most people will only focus on the latest releases, it's always worth taking a retrospective look at the series, to remember some of the franchise's high points. The FIFA series has been very divisive over the last decade, predominantly due to the emphasis on Ultimate Team and lack of attention to Career Mode, which has divided the opinion of players.

Because of this, and because of the sheer number of cheap EAFC 24 Coins releases, it can be tough to differentiate which entries were the best. So, to give the best game's their due praise, we've updated this list to include new entries and add useful bullet points for those who want to revisit some of the franchise's older games.
