What do the reviews say?
FIFA 23 has a Metacritic score of 77/100.
"While the negative side of FIFA is still present, from the way world-class-difficulty AI opponents never miss a shot, to how pace is still a potentially game-breaking attribute, it's fair to say the good easily outweighs the bad. As EA's time on this series comes to a close, FIFA 23 is a reminder of why this series is so huge, in more good ways than bad." (GAMINGbible)
