About this game
FIFA 18 on Nintendo Switch centres on creating chances through possession, dribbling and different crossing options, then finishing attacks with shots. Matches use broadcast-style presentation. Kick Off, Career, Tournaments and Skill Games provide different ways to approach its football gameplay. The edition supports handheld, dual Joy-Con, single Joy-Con and Pro Controller configurations. Local Seasons connects two Switch consoles for local play. EA's online services for this edition have ended, so its historical online-mode listings should not be treated as available internet competition.
Collected in series
FIFA is EA SPORTS’ football series built around passing moves, defensive decisions and the excitement of scoring. Across its history, careers, Ultimate Team and women’s football broadened the experience beyond individual matches.
