A second FIFA SNES outing, more accessible. Still stiff but great for sensing the series's fast 90s evolution.

Is FIFA Soccer 97 still worth playing in 2026?

A North American take on FIFA 97, this version spotlights MLS teams alongside the international sides, on the now well-honed 16-bit engine. The handling stays stiff but the whole is more accessible than the earliest entries, making it a good witness to the series' rapid mid-90s evolution. Its appeal today is chiefly historical and nostalgic, for retro football fans curious about regional variants rather than anyone after genuinely current gameplay.
