If you've played FIFA 23, you will notice that the small and quick players aren't as effective as in previous years.
Instead, it seems the taller and stronger players are dominating the game, especially the ones with a high-speed rating, like Manchester City's Erling Haaland. More and more players are catching onto this trend, and it's all down to the brand-new AcceleRATE feature on FIFA 23.
On Playstation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC, FIFA 23 players will notice the new AcceleRATE feature which has seen EA divide every player into a unique archetype. These archetypes impact the speed of a player over a longer distance in-game, with players' acceleration types either being 'Controlled', 'Explosive' or 'Lengthy'.
