FIFA 23 has come out with yet another major reveal, and tonight's new features involve the 'most' crucial aspect of the game. EA Sports has showcased what has been added as well as what has changed with the core features of the gameplay. With new and upgraded hardware, the developers have made several changes that will certainly add to the game's realism.

FIFA 23 will likely be the series' last entry with the iconic name as the license expires next year. However, there will be no shortage of action or drama as EA Sports has already added several new features. The game will also have crossplay and introduce current-gen capabilities on PC for the first time. If all of that's not enough, the new changes announced today will surely delight fans. While it's unclear what the old-gen capabilities will be, current-gen users are definitely in for a treat.

One notable feature this year has been the constant emphasis by EA Sports on upgraded hardware. That's one of the main reasons why HyperMotion 2 will be coming to PCs, and that's not all. The pitches will look far more realistic and also show wear and tear, just like in real life.

Additionally, the net physics has also improved, like how they move when a goal is scored. There will also be brand new celebrations, especially for some of the most popular stars in the world of football.

There will be brand new pre-match cutscenes that will lead to a buildup in the intensity of the matches. Such additions are presently found in games like NBA 2K22, and it's undoubtedly going to be an interesting one.

EA Sports has also concentrated on improving the cameras; there will be additional ones in FIFA 23. These cameras will operate as close-on items and capture the footballers' looks in-game.
