The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A polished, strategic sports sim that combines deep team management with energetic on-field action and celebratory pageantry.

What players say

Players are furious that EA added microtransactions to offline Dynasty and Road to Glory modes, and removed XP sliders that were present in earlier games, making progression feel artificially slow. While some say the core gameplay is the best in years, the community has organized a review-bomb campaign and the controversy overshadows everything.
