A new FIFA 21 update has been released by EA alongside official patch notes. Right now, the update is only available on PC, and there’s no word of when it will be available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC, or Nintendo Switch. So far, EA has released updates on PC first, and usually, the update comes to consoles a few days later. That said, right now, the update is available on PC and the patch notes reveal that it’s quite the meaty update.
This effect is most impactful when the ball carrier is running at a high speed.
This effect scales up to 55 feet/16.76 meters, meaning that Volleyed Chip Shots reduce in effectiveness the farther they’re taken from, up until 55 feet/16.76 meters.
Volleyed Chip Shots taken at 55 feet/16.76 meters and beyond can be half as effective as those taken at 35 feet/10.67 meters.
As a result, Injury Time could now last for a slightly longer period.
This change does not impact the success or failure of tackles, and the tackling player is now more likely to make some contact with the ball in these situations.
Stay tuned to the EA SPORTS FIFA Tracker to learn when these Starheads will become active.
