This year’s game promises to be a game-changer, packed with innovative features and thrilling updates, so get ready for the ultimate football gaming experience!
EA FC 25 plans on introducing a brand-new game mode called Rush, where you can play 5v5 matches with your friends. Replacing VOLTA, the street football mode that often flew under the radar, it is set to revolutionize the social experience in the football video game franchise.
Let’s rush into the action and discover a new way to play EA Sports FC 25!
The Ultimate Guide For Rush Game Mode in EA FC 25
Rush is an electrifying new game mode in EA FC 25. Imagine fast-paced, 5v5 matches with a twist – no half-time breaks, seven-minute matches, and a pitch size designed for non-stop action!
In Rush, the traditional rules of football are turned upside down. Say goodbye to draws, hello to tiebreaks, and get ready for blue cards that’ll sin-bin fouling players. Kick-offs become a frantic race to the ball, indirect free kicks add a new layer of strategy, and penalties are decided by 1-on-1 showdowns.
But that’s not all – Rush introduces a game-changing offside rule, where you can only be caught offside in the final third. This means players can make daring runs and outsmart the offside trap like never before.
With no positions to tie you down, teamwork and tactics are key. Discuss strategies with your teammates and outmaneuver your opponents in this fluid, exciting new mode. Watch the Official 5v5 Rush Deep Dive Video here:
1. Introducing Rush Game Mode
In EA FC 25’s Rush mode, each team consists of five players: four user-controlled outfield players and one AI goalkeeper. While the goalkeeper is controlled by AI, the team captain can still direct them to rush or move side-to-side. To ensure fair play online, goalkeepers on both teams have identical attributes and playstyles.
Rush ditches the traditional kick-off system for a more thrilling start. Two ball launchers on the halfway line randomly propel the ball with varying power and height, creating chaos and unpredictability. This new system fits perfectly with the mode’s fast-paced nature.
Another key aspect of Rush is its flexible gameplay. Gone are fixed player roles and positions! Players now organize themselves and switch roles as the game unfolds. When play stops, they’re placed back on the pitch based on their last location. This feature promotes player coordination, teamwork, and equal opportunities for all players to contribute in various roles throughout the match.
2. Rules And Regulations of Rush Game Mode
EA FC 25’s Rush mode introduces a fresh take on football with several exciting changes:
- Smaller pitch: Measuring 63.7 x 46.6 meters, the Rush pitch is roughly 40% smaller than a traditional pitch, designed to encourage lateral passing and maintain width.
- New roles and tactics: Explore FC IQ, Smart Tactics, and shareable tactic codes to enhance your team’s performance. The roles are divided into three levels: Role, Role+, and Role++.
- Match duration: Rush matches last seven minutes without half-time, with a Golden Goal Extra Time (2:20 minutes) and 1-on-1 Penalty Shootout if tied.
- Offside rules: Tweaked to only apply in the final attacking third, with a new dotted line marking the offside zone. Players behind defenders are onside if outside the attacking zone.
- Disciplinary actions: No red cards; instead, blue cards which sideline players for one minute for serious fouls or goal-scoring opportunities denied. Goalkeepers are exempt from blue and yellow cards. Two yellow cards result in a blue card, with the count resetting after. Teams forfeit if they receive a third blue card while two players are sidelined.
- Penalty kicks: Awarded for fouls within the penalty box, allowing players to beat the goalkeeper one-on-one. In shootouts, players alternate taking 1-on-1 penalty kicks, with each player having 10 seconds to take their shot.
