FIFA 23 — launching on September 30 — has dropped a new Pro Clubs deep-dive trailer.

Likewise, any points earned in Volta can be tallied up with the Pro Clubs' progression.

FIFA 23's Pro Clubs' Drop-Ins, as the name suggests, lets you jump into a friend or recently played opponent's match, and take control of a player. This year, EA intends to bring more kits and stadiums, and reduce the in-game match time to four minutes (lowest), creating a faster experience as you swap out between lobbies. A golden goal mechanic is also being introduced, eliminating the need for penalties and moving on to the next match. “You get in, you score a magic goal, and then you're back in the ecosystem readying to go up again,” says the video narrator.

Perks serve as the basis for individual progression, though for a while, players
