Brief outline of the game

Football simulation game in which players control real players and teams.

Content specific issues

This game allows users to make in-game purchases with real-world currency. Players can purchase the in-game currency of 'FC points', which can be used in a variety of ways, such as purchasing items in the games store, a premium season pass or card player packs. Card player packs contain randomly selected items, where the player may not know what they are getting prior to purchase. Players can choose to purchase packs an unlimited number of times if they wish to do so. Through an EA Account/Family controls, a parent or guardian can set up monthly spending limits for in-game content, including in-game currency and other purchasable content. Parents, carers or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.

Other issues

Some of the in-game purchases within the game are also time-limited. In Ultimate Team, the store includes purchasable items that are on a time rotation, with the items rotating in and out of availability. There is no guarantee that some items will return to the store, so players may feel pressured to buy during the limited time-availability. This game includes a paid Season pass with time-limited rewards. The games Season Pass is free to all players, however ‘FC points’ can be used to purchase a ‘Premium Season Pass’ or premium progression track. Buy purchasing the Season Pass, players get access to additional rewards through season progression. Once the season ends, unpurchased or unearned rewards may no longer be obtainable, so players may feel pressured to play the game in order to acquire the Season Pass rewards. This game offers non-monetized periodic rewards and tasks that may pressure players to revisit the game. In one game mode, there are recurring Daily and Weekly Objectives, seasonal objectives, and limited-time live event objectives. Whilst participation is optional, missing a day, week, or event window may mean the player does not receive that optional reward. Therefore, they may feel pressured to revisit and play the game more frequently, so they do not miss out on periodic rewards.
