The move to a new engine refines the feel of the ball and renews the desire to replay every action to perfection. The Master League spreads across seasons to manage, competitions follow one another and online sustains a healthy rivalry. This density of modes, paired with a demanding learning curve, guarantees dozens of evenings before you've seen it all.
