Video game developer EA Sports is announcing that it is currently deploying a title update for the PC version of FIFA 16, which is designed to deliver a range of improvements for the core mechanics and to deal with some issues that the community has been signaling.

The full list of changes introduced to the football simulation can be read by clicking on the button at the end of this article.

EA Sports is making some big changes to the goalkeepers, apparently eager to make sure that they react better to a variety of gameplay situations.

There are also tweaks to the Career Mode, and an improvement for the Ultimate Team experience.

EA Sports explains on the official site that "Our commitment to improving the FIFA 16 experience is ongoing, and regular feedback from you helps us to make the game fair, fun, and secure for all fans."

FIFA 16 is a major title, and that means title updates for the game will be delivered for a long period of time, based on the feedback offered by the community.

The team is not yet saying when it will implement the same tweaks on the PlayStation 4 from Sony and the Xbox One from Microsoft, but this will presumably happen at some point in the coming week.

FIFA 16 offers a slower, more methodical experience

The new title from EA Sports is designed with the same excellent presentation and graphics that it has offered for the past few years, but it has made some big changes to the core mechanics.

FIFA 16 no longer encourages gamers to rely entirely on pace and over-the-top passes in order to get past defenders and deliver shots on goal.

Improved defensive lines mean that gamers have more options when they launch tackles and press ball carriers, and now most of the battle between solid teams takes place in midfield, where careful passing is required to get a solid opportunity.

FIFA 16 also offers improvements to the Career Mode and the Ultimate Team, and the development team is delivering Team of the Week packages and more to keep gamers interested in the long term.
