FIFA 23 is considered a noticeable upgrade from FIFA 22, particularly for owners of next-gen consoles. The introduction of the women's game mode and the inclusion of Ted Lasso content make the decision to purchase easier. However, the game still feels pre-determined and lacks true randomness and excitement. Ultimate Team is still microtransaction-focused. No specific overall score is mentioned.

FIFA 23 is considered a significant improvement over FIFA 22, with the Ultimate Team mode being particularly revitalized. The gameplay has become slower, focusing more on player movement rather than skill moves. The improved chemistry system allows for more diverse and varied team compositions. However, there is still a noticeable gap between players who invest in FIFA Points and those who do not.
