A big change is coming to FIFA 21: the game will soon let you impose strict limits on the amount you play and spend.
The decision comes at a time when EA is under increasing pressure from governments, parents, players and class action lawsuits over the controversial FIFA Ultimate Team mode and its impact on children.
In patch notes for FIFA 21 issued this morning, EA mentioned the previously unannounced FIFA Playtime, which is described as “a new suite of tools that enable players to have more control and visibility over how they play”. You can access it through the main menu, FIFA Ultimate Team and Volta Football.
