FIFA 23: 10 Rumours You Need To Know

4. Shooting Has Been Reworked?

Fire up Twitter, punch in "#FIFA23" and prepare to see a lot of chat about the impact "Power Shots" could have on general gameplay. Most seem to believe that this feature will radically alter how players shoot on goal, but that's conveniently forgetting about the one-timer mechanic that's already there.

Most gamers barely use that, and it's easy to picture those folks ignoring "Power Shots" in favour of something more automated. According to the rumours, successfully pulling off one of these thunderbolts will be really difficult anyway. You'll need to get the timing bang on if you even want to hit the target at all.

Row Z awaits.

Fingers crossed this is a gimmicky add-on to the way shooting works in FIFA and not the law. Blasting over from inside the box, or smacking a Bovril out of some poor sod's hands by the corner flag, doesn't sound like too it'll facilitate player fun.
