FIFA 22, the latest entry in the long-running football simulation franchise, received a major update yesterday. Title Update 8 brings gameplay tweaks, updates to star heads, and fixes a couple of bugs. The patch is now live on PC for both Steam and Origin versions of the game.
The patch allows players to interrupt the animation of The Drag To Drag Skill Move when it is performed via the right analog input. The bug where the goal won’t be counted if it is scored during the last seconds of the match has been fixed. A total of 51 new star heads are added as well.
You can read the full patch notes below.
Gameplay
- The Drag To Drag Skill Move can be interrupted earlier in the animation after being performed with the right analog input.
- When the attacking player was performing a cross, Auto Switching did not occur as expected for the defending team if their controlled player was Containing.
- When a goal was scored in the last moment of a match, it wasn’t being counted towards the result in some rare instances.
- When playing Co-Op, the initial kick off pass animation was taking slightly longer than intended.
- In some rare situations, the goalkeeper rushed towards the ball carrier without being requested to do so.
- VOLTA ARCADE could display as being unavailable even when it was available. In some cases, a red ball could have been used on a red surface, making it difficult to view the ball.
- Club and Virtual Pro information could disappear from the UI after sending Drop-In invites. This was a visual issue only.
- Updated some kits and stadia.
- Added and updated a total of 51 new star heads. These will only be available following a server update. Please follow @EAFIFADIRECT for updates on when this will be live in-game.
