EA SPORTS have announced what to expect from the EA SPORTS FC 27 Title Update v1.1. The patch will see the majority of updates come to career mode as well as some QoL updates to football ultimate team and a few bug fixes.
EA have said we will receive this update on the 27th October 2026. If you were hoping for gameplay changes then you may have to wait.
From their latest set of Pitch Notes EA have stated they have listened to the community via their forums discord steam and feedback page. Below are the main updates we will receive.
Updates To Career Mode
As mentioned before there will be a lot of QoL updates to career mode. First being the update to your team management screen. They have updated the screen in many areas of the game to help readability and allow users to easily select team management options.
You will be able to control your experience while in career as well. You can now turn on/off unexpected events and press conferences or choose how often they will occur. These options will be available when creating a new career and in current careers.
There will also be 2 new types of rivalry objectives introduced to Player Career.
- Consistency rivalries will have you try and not be the first player to fail an objective.
- Match limit rivalries will require you to complete objectives within a certain time.
Changes have been made to Manager career as well. When negotiating with clubs and players you will get more information on why they may decline an offer. Wage calculations will also take performance bonuses into account. As well as veterans asking for key positions in your squad less.
A few more bug fixes have been applied to youth academy scouts being able to scout the correct amount. You will also be able to see what playstyles your scouts find and player profile stats have been updated for easier reading.
EA have also found a bug where players ask for a transfer even if they meet your amount of playing time requirements. They are looking into a fix but it's unsure if this will be patched in the next update.
Pack Opening Times Reduced For FUT
Users who enjoy football ultimate team will now be able to open their packs quicker. This comes after many requests from the FC 27 closed beta. There will be less wait times when opening the majority of higher rated items.
SBC's will also become easier to use. Once you filter your SBC you will be able to keep those filters throughout your session. Meaning you don't have to apply them each time you want to start a new SBC.
Bug fixes have been applied to referees wearing clashing kits and your pitch lines/goal net colours resetting to your opponents colour.
EA have said that there will be no balancing/tuning changes to FC 27 in this update. More gameplay updates are expected in a future title update.
Bug Fixes
Bugs that will be fixed:
- Tutorial can get you stuck in the game forever.
- Players will no longer get stuck in the goal net after doing a slide tackle close to the byline in 2v2.
- Goalkeeper holding the ball for too long after a pass is requested in 1v1.
- Players passing backwards incorrectly in 3v3 kickabouts resulting in the ball going into your own goal.
- More post-play cutscenes will appear instead of normal replay footage.
