Ultimate Team diehards will enjoy the tweaks to the studio's most-lucrative game mode, while Career Mode loyalists will be in for another year of a familiar product. EA Sports FC 21 certainly has a wide variety of changes to it,EA FC 24 Coins  but much like MLS expansion team FC Cincinnati, these changes are in need of some more development time and polish - though the product on the pitch is still a real joy to watch.

With EA Sports FC 21 set to launch in just under two weeks, there's plenty of new gameplay additions for fans to get excited about: Volta will bring back the flair-filled gameplay of EA Sports FC Street, career mode is finally getting a much-needed overhaul, and EA Sports is continuing to grow its catalog of authentic leagues with the addition of the top Romanian league. The game now features over thirty leagues from around the world, but we couldn't help but think there are a few more that ought to have been included in EA Sports FC 21.

North of the border, a big moment in North American sporting history took place earlier this year: the Canadian Premier League kicked its first ball. The newly-formed professional league launched with seven professional teams from coast-to-coast across Canada, marking the only time in recent sporting history that a professional top flight football league has launched as part of such a large-scale initiative.

The league is set up in a way that will be familiar to fans of Liga MX, with a split-season format representing an apertura and clausura that caps off with playoffs between the winners of both seasons. The burgeoning league hasn't taken long to make an impact, with its Calgary-based spring season winners already causing an upset in the Canadian Championship over an MLS team, and its Hamilton-based club making it to the Round of 16 in the CONCACAF League. Suffice to say, the league has shown a good level of quality in its first few months of action.

Given that a large portion of the EA Sports FC franchise is developed by EA Vancouver, it only makes sense that the developers ought to engage in the growth of the game in their own backyard. With Canada set to help host the EA Sports FC World Cup in 2026. it's not unrealistic to think that the Canadian Premier League will find its way to the EA Sports FC franchise in the near future - though it'd be neat to see the CPL included during its inaugural season. It's not too late for a DLC update, is it?

When it comes to fans rallying for a league to be included in the game, buy Fut Coins few vote en masse like fans in the United Arab Emirates do. In fact, the tenacity of fans from the UAE Pro-League is exactly why EA Sports FC 21 will feature one UAE Pro-League side, Al Ain FC, in the game's 'Rest of World' section. The Abu Dhabi-based club was one of the most oft-requested clubs by fans in the region, and they sent in enough requests to convince EA Sports it was a worthwhile effort to add the team to the game. If that name sounds familiar, it's because Al Ain FC made waves on the pitch last year when it made it all the way to the EA Sports FC Club World Cup, losing out 4-1 to then-Champions League winners Real Madrid.
