Following this update, the Brazil national team has been removed from Kick Off, Tournaments, Online Friendlies, and Online Seasons, and it will be playable only in the FIFA World Cup 2022 game modes.
The title update also addresses various issues such as:
- In some cases, Training Center Focus Areas did not update to take into account the selected Controller Settings preset.
- Multiple stability issues that could occur.
- Increased Stamina Decay by up to 41% for Constant Pressure, Press After Possession Loss, and Press On Heavy Touch Defensive Custom Tactics.
- Reduced ball velocity from fully powered corner kicks.
