EA Sports announced a new title update release for FIFA 21, a week after the last one. This new update addresses various issues in-game but also adds a new feature called Input Overlay that will help you visualize your controller graphics on your screen, letting you watch the inputs you perform during a match!
The update is already live on PC and you can view the complete patch notes below:

- When a previously locked Objective group was unlocked, it could have still continued to display as locked until the player exited and re-entered FUT.
