John Robertson (IGN)

8.1/10

“Ultimately, FIFA 18 introduces enough new ideas to suggest it’s not sitting on the laurels of its success. However, it’s a simplified experience, one that fails to embrace the complexity of football at the highest level.”

“Seeing where Hunter’s story goes is a compelling part of a game that otherwise feels very familiar.”

Paul Tamburro (Game Revolution)

4.5/5 stars

“Bolstered by a graphics engine that brings the on-pitch action to life with more realistic player animations, uncanny likenesses, improved weather effects and impressive attention-to-detail across its various stadiums, FIFA fans are in for a real treat this year.”

Areajugones	Arnau Blasco	9 / 10	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 is probably the best football simulator right now. Although it is a little bit continuist and still has some issues with the goalkeepers, this game is more polished than ever, it has amazing graphics and a soundtrack that fits perfectly the game. FIFA 18 has also the official licenses of most of the great football leagues, which is wonderful.	Read review
Atomix	David Berrones	88 / 100	09-27-2017	Like in previous years, FIFA 18 it’s a game that fans of soccer will appreciate the most. There’s different ways that you can enjoy of its contents and when you are through with one of them, you can continue with another one that has several differences. Either that you just like to play with your buddies at parties, compete with thousands of fans online from around the world, or whether you’d like to relish on a good story in The Journey.	Read review
Attack of the Fanboy	William Schwartz	4.5 / 5 stars	09-20-2017	The beautiful game is more beautiful than ever in FIFA 18. Soccer fans will find very little to be disappointed with here.	Read review
BaziCenter	Mohamad Shokri	7 / 10	10-31-2017	Looking at and playing through FIFA 18, you’ll always have mixed feelings about it. The game is still very fun, but there’s almost zero improvements from the last year’s release. FIFA needs new blood, and needs it now, as PES is improving fast.	Read review
Cerealkillerz	Gabriel Bogdan	7.8 / 10	10-01-2017	FIFA 18 is an unexpected step backwards from its predecessor. The Journey and most of the other modes got some unimaginative updates and the perfomance on the field is filled with inconsistencies in terms of player AI and the balance between attackers and defense that you wouldn’t expect after FIFA 17. Fans of ultimate team and FIFA Veterans will still get some fun out of the countless game modes the game has to offer.	Read review
CGMagazine	Adam Chapman	9 / 10	10-06-2017	The Journey remains a truly immersive experience, the cut-scenes are well acted and put together, and the storyline is an enjoyable one.	Read review
Cheat Code Central	Patrick Tretina	4.5 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	When all is said and done, FIFA 18 is a game I can get behind. A lot of the small annoyances have been fixed from last year, especially regarding player movements, and there’s nothing like diving full force into The Journey with Alex Hunter. There’s also the gorgeous graphics; it’s truly a work of art when you stop and take it all in. The lack of FUT improvements knock it down a peg, but all in all the title is worth sinking your cash and time into. If anything, you’ll love the way Rolando’s perfect sculpted hair deflects the wind in one of the most beautiful stadiums ever constructed as those rowdy Real Madrid fans engage in a bit of tomfoolery. Just remember to take it all it and enjoy the ride.	Read review
COGconnected	Shawn Petraschuk	85 / 100	09-21-2017	FIFA 18’s focus on the art of defending and the long-awaited addition of authentic player styles makes the play experience a joy to take part in.	Read review
Critical Hit	Alessandro Barbosa	7.5 / 10	10-13-2017	FIFA 18 makes some notable and important changes both on and off the pitch, but it’s a formula that still often feels at odds with itself. And while EA is trying to recapture its former glory with the series, it continues to lose ground to the competition. Even if FIFA 18 is the best entry in the series for some time.	Read review
Cultured Vultures	Jimmy Donnellan	9 / 10	10-03-2017	With PES 2018 failing to capitalise and build upon on its predecessor, FIFA 18 does just that to great effect.	Read review
Digiato	Shayan Ziaei	90 / 100	09-30-2017	The thing is that even after all these years, EA Sports hasn’t find its ideal gameplay for FIFA series; so every two or three years FIFA is going through some radical changes that are not always necessary. But FIFA 18 is different, changes are blessing from god and gameplay’s compactness and freedom has made this game a truly joyful experience and at the same time, a great football simulator.	Read review
Digital Chumps	Will Johnson	8.5 / 10	05-23-2017	Stretch out, lace up, and get ready! EA’s rendition of “the beautiful game” is here again with smoother gameplay, improved intangibles, and well layered modes.	Read review
Digital Trends	Gabe Gurwin	4 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 delivers a soccer experience perfect for both newcomers and returning veterans.	Read review
Digitally Downloaded	Moshe R.	3.5 / 5 stars	10-09-2017	FIFA 18 is not the video game manifestation of the beautiful game I would have liked it to be, but as general entertainment, it is still pretty good.	Read review
DualShockers	Taylor Lyles	7 / 10	09-25-2017	FIFA 18 is by no means a perfect game, the lack of customization and emotionless animations from players puts the game back a few steps, but this is not a bad game. Whether you have been on a FIFA hiatus or you are a long-time veteran, you should come back to this series — if only for the single-player content.	Read review
EGM	Michael Goroff	7.5 / 10	09-28-2017	FIFA 18 is a solid game, with everything that made FIFA 17 an instant classic, plus a deeper story mode and a few additional bells and whistles. But it’s not the huge step forward that FIFA 17 was, and it suffers from some areas lacking the polish that EA could have easily applied, considering that it did all the hard work of building a foundation for a killer soccer series last year. That said, if you’ve been waiting to get back into soccer sims, FIFA 18 is as good a place to start as any.	Read review
Eurogamer	Wesley Yin-Poole	Recommended	09-25-2017	Like Spurs, FIFA 18 plays a fantastic game of football. But like Spurs, FIFA 18 probably won’t win any trophies.	Read review
Forbes	Brian Mazique	9 / 10	09-21-2017	By accentuating its prior positives and offering real and tangible improvements to gameplay, FIFA 18 excels and is slightly better than last year’s solid entry.	Read review
Game Informer	Matthew Kato	8.8 / 10	09-21-2017	Seeing where Hunter’s story goes is a compelling part of a game that otherwise feels very familiar.	Read review
Game Revolution	Paul Tamburro	4.5 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	Bolstered by a graphics engine that brings the on-pitch action to life with more realistic player animations, uncanny likenesses, improved weather effects and impressive attention-to-detail across its various stadiums, FIFA fans are in for a real treat this year.	Read review
Game Volt	Mohamed Ashmawy	8 / 10	09-23-2017	The game provided a good improvement on the gameplay style and offers more realism, but it doesn’t match the slowdown with development for certain modes specially Career mode that should be giving the same caring the same as Ultimate Team, the big improvement this time with the TV presentation and the atmosphere in the stadium and these are the most points that The development team should be praised besides overall graphics improvements.	Read review
Gameblog	Gianni Molinaro	7 / 10	09-21-2017	Definitely solid in terms of presentation and game modes, even though The Journey is still far from perfect, FIFA 18 sadly feels like a FIFA 17.5 with a lot of emphasis on attack	Read review
GameCrate	Afroxander	9 / 10	10-02-2017	FIFA 18 is what many folks wanted FIFA 17 to be. Overall, it’s the best soccer game money can buy right now.	Read review
Gamefa	Meysam Abdulahipour	8.8 / 10	10-12-2017	Fifa 18 is successfully the best simulator of the entire series. It’s the best thing for the fans of this popular and lovely sport. Effective improvements in the gameplay and the special attention the developers gave this game have made Fifa 18 the best game of this series. Thanks to the pile of features and different modes Fifa 18, as a sports game, can keep you entertained for hours. Fifa is getting better and better every day. It’s been changing a lot, but the gameplay has always been stable which made the yearly improvements work and the developers managed to keep the game fresh throughout the years.	Read review
GameGrin	Nathan Hunter	7 / 10	10-23-2017	FIFA 18 is certainly an upgrade on FIFA 17 and undoubtedly the franchise is going in the right direction, but with the same flaws still remaining it is hard to solely focus on the positives. The game needs balancing out as far too much of the game is focused on attacking, rather than the grittier and more tactical side of football. FIFA 18 is superb to look at with the slick menus, pre-match changes, vast licences, wonderfully represented stadiums, and player images, but changes to its gameplay are a necessity for me. Having played PES 2018 and FIFA 18 this year, I can comfortably say PES takes the award for being the best football game, but FIFA still has the greater depth to it, and is the more sociable game of the two.	Read review
GameMAG	ACE	7 / 10	10-31-2017	FIFA 18 lacks real innovations on big systems and has lots of shortcomings. This may lead to the fact that the old fans will not be addicted to the game as before. Switch version is the best portable FIFA experience ever, but sadly, it has lots of shortcomings too, and doesn’t include a lot of elemets from PS4 and Xbox One versions, while costs almost the same.	Read review
Gameplanet	Toby Berger	9 / 10	09-29-2017	FIFA 18’s new additions and modes make it the most compelling FIFA experience to date, and the franchise continues to demonstrate why it’s the best football game in the business. Minor complaints aside, FIFA 18 is the biggest and most welcoming football game to date.	Read review
GamePro	GamePro	90 / 100	09-21-2017	An important step for the FIFA series: Better presentation and playful changes ensure a fresh feeling for the ball.	Read review
Gamerheadquarters	Jason Stettner	8.2 / 10	10-05-2017	Fifa 18 is the latest entry in EA’s long running Football/Soccer simulation that aims to refine, add a couple new features and continue Hunter’s story.	Read review
GameSkinny	Joseph Rowe	8 / 10	09-29-2017	All in all, this year’s FIFA has something to offer soccer/football fans of every type if you’re not too disappointed by its lack of new features.	Read review
GameSpot	Oscar Dayus	7 / 10	09-21-2017	Superb presentation and small gameplay tweaks make FIFA 18 an improvement over last year–albeit a slight one.	Read review
GamesRadar+	Ben Wilson	4.5 / 5 stars	09-28-2017	The best footballing package available, with myriad improvements – yet still unlikely to convert fans of the opposition.	Read review
GameZone	Cade Onder	8 / 10	09-22-2017	FIFA 18 may take a few steps back in the gameplay department but the well-written, multi-layered story that deals with Alex’s life on and off the pitch is one worth experiencing.	Read review
Gaming Nexus	Sean Cahill	8 / 10	09-21-2017	A revamped manager career mode and the second chapter of The Journey are both wonderful experiences, and while some aspects of gameplay have been addressed such as crossing and more tactical runs, there are still some glaring problems that weren’t addressed. The game is still enjoyable, but this franchise can’t rest on its laurels anymore.	Read review
GamingBolt	Shubhankar Parijat	9 / 10	09-30-2017	Several changes big and small come together in a game that may not be the most revolutionary, but is probably the best FIFA we’ve seen in years.	Read review
GamingTrend	Jay Malone	85 / 100	10-07-2017	FIFA 18 brings back Alex Hunter and makes his story better. With a detailed focus on the protagonist’s many complicated relationships, this new Alex Hunter tale is the best narrative in a sports game. There are some smaller tweaks needed on the pitch that seem to be getting ignored, but FIFA 18 has hints that those issues are slowly being addressed. FIFA continues to be one of the best sports titles on the market.	Read review
GearNuke	Danial Arshad Khan	7.5 / 10	10-01-2017	FIFA 18 offers a great story mode this year with the return of Alex Hunter, but when it comes to improvements to the general gameplay, there is not much to gain here.	Read review
Generación Xbox	Adrian Fuentes Berna	9 / 10	09-20-2017	This new title offers us the FIFA experience we know but also brings new features such as its renewed FIFA Ultimate Team mode, which has achieved the perfect balance to fit any type of player. Alex Hunter’s new campaign, online modes and single-player modes make FIFA 18 one of the best games in recent years.	Read review
God is a Geek	Adam Cook	8 / 10	09-21-2017	While the changes across the board make for a better game than last year, there are still cracks that need cementing, not papering over. Evolution, not revolution this year for FIFA, then, but still a fine game fit to burst with things to do.	Read review
GRYOnline.pl	Jakub Mirowski	8 / 10	10-01-2017	There is no revolution in the gameplay but modern FIFA never needed one. This year’s edition has a slower game pace, improved player positioning and more focus on individual player stats. Thanks to all that FIFA 18 remains as entertaining as ever.	Read review
Guardian	Ben Wilson	4 / 5 stars	09-27-2017	Whichever side of the footballing gulf you plant your neon footwear, there’s no question that EA’s behemoth delivers bang for its megabucks.	Read review
Hardcore Gamer	Sam Spyrison	4.5 / 5 stars	09-25-2017	FIFA continues to show no signs of slowing down its dominance, as this year’s title further enhances the consistently enjoyable gameplay thanks to improvements to the on-field animations and varied, but realistic presentation.	Read review
Hobby Consolas	Martín Amechazurra Falagán	87 / 100	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 doesn’t show a lot of changes to the core gameplay of the series, but it brings a lot of improvements in its various game modes, as well as a better atmosphere to the stadiums and a new chapter in Alex Hunter’s journey that has managed to learn from its past mistakes.	Read review
IGN	John Robertson	8.1 / 10	09-26-2017	Ultimately, FIFA 18 introduces enough new ideas to suggest it’s not sitting on the laurels of its success. However, it’s a simplified experience, one that fails to embrace the complexity of football at the highest level.	Read review
IGN Italy	Andrea Boscarino	8 / 10	09-25-2017	FIFA 18 is still a spectacular rendition of “the beautiful game”, but also a step back in the series.	Read review
IGN Middle East	Moustafa Gad	8 / 10	09-24-2017	FIFA 18 marches on the same path as its predecessors, offering the same content with minor improvements such as new gameplay modes, a faster pace, more varied offensive tactics, better audio and graphic quality, as well as the ability to obtain valuable rewards while playing solo in FUT for the first time. On the other hand, there is no noticeable difference in Pro Clubs or Career Mode, the goalie performance is unpredictable, and it’s too difficult to fully control the defensive line.	Read review
IGN Spain	David Soriano	9.2 / 10	09-21-2017	Despite promising “the greatest leap in gameplay in FIFA’s history”, FIFA 18 is a product quite similar to FIFA 17 in which there are small improvements, but not major revolutions.	Read review
Impulsegamer	James Coles	4.6 / 5 stars	10-13-2017	FIFA 18 does enough to better its predecessor thanks to new player animations and improvements to the gameplay. Although repetitive, the revamped transfer system is intriguing and part two of Alex’s story in ‘The Journey: Hunter Returns’ makes FIFA 18 the best in the series to date.	Read review
Leadergamer	Kaan Gezer	8 / 10	09-29-2017	If you’re looking for a realistic football experience, you don’t have any choice other than FIFA 18. Still, there’s not so much innovation in game modes, except for The Journey.	Read review
LevelUp	Rodrigo Villanueva	8.5 / 10	09-29-2017	Despite an uneven evolution on and off the pitch, FIFA 18 manages to muster enough innovation and improvements to make it a worthy iteration of the franchise with a fleshed out Journey mode, the interactive transfers, and the real motion technology as its most juicy contributions. While the unbalanced action on the pitch and some abandoned modes constitute the most glaring weaknesses.	Read review
M3	Anders Wollner	8 / 10	09-25-2017	Fifa 18 is just as good as expected. The physics is better than last year, and so are the visuals. A few weird bugs a side; Fifa 18 is a great game that will keep you busy until Fifa 19.	Read review
Marooners’ Rock	Marooners’ Rock	9 / 10	10-18-2017	FIFA 18 is a great follow-up to last year’s game, adding and changing just enough to feel worth the purchase with the blemishes being slight enough to be mostly overlooked.	Read review
Metro GameCentral	GameCentral	8 / 10	09-25-2017	The improvements are slight, but this is still the best FIFA has been in several years – in terms of gameplay as well as just presentation.	Read review
New Game Network	Alex Varankou	84 / 100	10-12-2017	FIFA 18 is a solid continuation of this authentic and highly polished sports franchise that still manages to make meaningful strides forward.	Read review
Nexus	Jarred Milner	8.5 / 10	10-16-2017	FIFA 18 falls behind in the gameplay section once again when compared to its rival, but it makes up for a lot of those shortcomings in the rest of its offering. It’s not the best FIFA ever, but it is, at least, starting to move onwards and upwards after a couple of years of stagnating. A worthwhile purchase if you love football or football games.	Read review
NintendoWorldReport	J.P. Corbran	8 / 10	10-04-2017	FIFA 18 on Switch does what it does very well, but it’s hard to ignore just how much is missing. This really is the best FIFA on a portable there has ever been, and the most full featured, but compared to other console versions, it is lacking. Hopefully EA will continue the series on Switch and add some of that content back in, but for now, whether this game is worthwhile will depend on how you like to play it.	Read review
NZGamer	Angus Deacon	8.3 / 10	09-28-2017	Feels a bit like a FIFA 17.5, but the finer improvements will matter to dedicated fans.	Read review
Pardis Game	Sina Rabiee	8.5 / 10	10-06-2017	By keeping the same old structure and applying some random changes into the gameplay, FIFA 18 has succeeded in offering a new experience. It may not be so flawless after all, considering it as a Football Sim, instead, the fast-paced gameplay and the exciting modes, make FIFA 18 one of the best sports video game one can afford to buy that’d entertain you for at least a whole year.	Read review
PC Gamer	Tom Hatfield	84 / 100	10-06-2017	An improvement in every area, including The Journey mode.	Read review
PC Invasion	Peter Parrish	7 / 10	10-04-2017	Reward EA for improving defending and the overall ‘feel’ of FIFA 18, or scold them for going extremely easy on any major innovation? Both, I think. It’s a pretty good release this year; just expect the odd resigned sigh at familiar woes.	Read review
PCMag	Matthew Buzzi	4.5 / 5 stars	09-29-2017	FIFA 18 delivers the best in-match experience the series has seen in years, while adding enhancements to virtually every facet of an already-polished package.	Read review
PlayStation Universe	Adam Byrne	9 / 10	09-28-2017	FIFA has rectified the majority of its shortcomings, providing a confident marriage of fluid, dynamic never-say-die football and just enough content to undoubtedly tie footballing fans over for as long as their free time permits. Simply put, this is best FIFA in years.	Read review
Polygon	Owen Good	9 / 10	09-28-2017	FIFA 18 is still seductively deep and delivers excitement. It gave me the feeling that there is still so much to learn about what appears to be a rather straightforward sport, and that the game would gladly help me understand. This is always the time of year when I ask myself why I don’t just spend all of my time playing FIFA, and FIFA 18 poses the question more forcefully than ever.	Read review
Press Start	Shannon Grixti	9 / 10	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 is the most solid entry in the series in several years. The presentation has never been better and the game has never been more realistic. EA have made subtle improvements to the Frostbite based gameplay that was introduced in FIFA 17, but If you weren’t a huge fan of the gameplay last year, then chances are you’re going to still be quite unhappy with what is on offer here.	Read review
PSX Brasil	Carlos Oliveira Maciel	88 / 100	10-10-2017	FIFA 18 still reigns as the best soccer game of this generation (depending on who you ask). Although The Journey mode does not bring the same impact from the previous installment, FIFA 18 is a great sequence and delivers the best addition of the last few years: the possibility of experiencing Alex Hunter’s life out of the soccer field, showing more of his human side facing the difficulties that a player’s career might present. FIFA 18 repeats its formula, with subtle improvements on gameplay, and brings what was already good (and bad) in FIFA 17, and fells much more like an update than a full game.	Read review
Push Square	Robert Ramsey	8 / 10	10-06-2017	Somehow, EA has managed to refine and hone the modern FIFA formula to an even greater degree with FIFA 18. Last year we questioned what more the developer could possibly do to keep the series from stagnating, and it turns out that making a slew of welcome smaller adjustments across the board can really impact the big picture. Some will roll their eyes, but FIFA 18 is yet another fantastic footie sim — one that takes the ball from the already great FIFA 17 and runs with it.	Read review
Saudi Gamer	ريان الدويش	8 / 10	09-25-2017	FIFA 18 is really fun to play, the smoothness of creating chances, dribbling and the new realistic animations makes it more fun than ever before. And I like how EA made improvement almost in every mode in the game. The only issue is that with all the new additions to the attacking game style, it is harder to defend now, and sometimes players just do not respond to your actions which is frustrating. But still even with that, the game is so much fun to play for football fans and people who just want to play it.	Read review
Sirus Gaming	Jett Vincent Sia	7.4 / 10	09-28-2017	EA has done well to emulate the culture of football into this game and while it is far from a perfect football game, with some more polish it can definitely become just that. Until then, the frustrations are real.	Read review
SomHráč.sk	Jozef Moravec	85 / 100	10-20-2017	The FIFA series has been going on for so long that the fans already know what to expect. First and foremost, FIFA 18 is a fast and flashy football game which shouldn’t disappoint you if you’re looking for an arcade experience.	Read review
SpazioGames	Marco Bianchi	9 / 10	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 is a very good football game, probably the best coming out this year.: with a new gameplay, more slow paced and giving more space to players with great technique. The IA is eventually more Human, but the keepers are worse than the previous year. FUT is great as usual, and The Journey two brings the new mode of FIFA to a whole new level.	Read review
Sports Gamers Online	Michael Straw	8 / 10	09-27-2017	I’m going to pour hours upon hours into FIFA 18, and I’ll have a blast the whole way, and that’s really all that I could ask for.	Read review
Stevivor	Ben Salter	8.5 / 10	09-26-2017	FIFA 18 improves across the board and continues to offer an astonishing amount of options, without comprising on quality.	Read review
Telegraph	Tom Hoggins	4 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	It is the atmosphere that hits you first in FIFA 18.	Read review
The Digital Fix	Luciano Howard	9 / 10	10-20-2017	EA own this sector. FIFA has everything you want and is fun right until the next one comes out.	Read review
The Games Machine	Davide Mancini	8.7 / 10	09-29-2017	FIFA 18 improves the previous game in every aspect, with the Frostbite engine which takes animation and physics to a brand new level of quality. The gameplay is fun and lets you play a wonderful offensive football, while the new full manual defense is quite harsh to manage. Overall, the game offers a huge and deep football experience, thanks to a solid single player (with the new Career mode and the awesome second season of The Journey) and endless multiplayer action.	Read review
TheSixthAxis	Aran Suddi	8 / 10	09-27-2017	FIFA 18 is a solid entry into the FIFA series, but while there have been some changes over last year’s iteration, they aren’t so big that they make an essential purchase. Personally I found attacking smoother and defending a little harder to get hold of, while The Journey fun, if a bit dragged out. However where it matters FIFA 18 is a very good representation of the beautiful game, and Ultimate Team will have a firm grip on players over the next year again. Does FIFA remain the king of the pitch though? I’d say its pretty even nowadays.	Read review
TheXboxHub	James Birks	4 / 5 stars	10-19-2017	FIFA 18 has already made me experience immense highs and depressing lows, just like football in real life. The gameplay takes a lot of getting used to, however, the changes have mostly been for the good and the A.I. is a lot smarter.	Read review
TrueAchievements	Dave Horobin	4.5 / 5 stars	10-27-2017	FIFA 18 offers the best game of football that the series has seen in some time and provides the best overall package for fans of the sport. It might not be up there in terms of authenticity with PES on the pitch, but this year’s release has made up some ground, excelling at providing those wow moments that gets fans of the real sport on their feet and punching the air.	Read review
Twinfinite	Chris Jecks	4 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	All in all, FIFA 18 doesn’t feel like as drastic an improvement as its predecessor did over FIFA 16. Its improvements to offensive play certainly allow for some spectacular goals to be scored and help the fluidity of play.	Read review
USgamer	Kat Bailey	4 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	The action on the field is a bit more nuanced; the presentation has been spruced up; and there’s a new chapter of the Journey to digest. But at its heart, FIFA 18 is much the same as its always been: the sort of fast and frantic soccer game you play on the couch with your friends. And that makes it plenty fun.	Read review
VGN	Tommaso Stio	9 / 10	10-04-2017	EA is famous for making incredible progresses every year on new chapters: game modes and technical side of FIFA 18 are amazing. This game is the top football experience that every fan should play!	Read review
VideoGamer	Colm Ahern	8 / 10	09-25-2017	FIFA 18 is the best FIFA game in years. There are some obvious flaws — some of which are more frustrating than others — but as a complete package, the series is making progress, once again.	Read review
We Got This Covered	Edward Love	4 / 5 stars	09-21-2017	FIFA 18 plays an attractive and attacking brand of football that champions the pageantry of the game. But the Frostbite engine is the true star, offering up a staggering vision of “The Beautiful Game”.	Read review
