Which is cheaper in Kenya, EA Sports FC 26 or EA Sports FC 25?
EA Sports FC 25 is cheaper on both consoles, but the gap depends on which console you own. EA Sports FC 25 for PS5 costs KSh 4,000 against KSh 4,700 for EA Sports FC 26 for PS5, a saving of KSh 700.
On PS4 the saving shrinks to KSh 200. EA Sports FC 25 for PS4 is KSh 4,500 and EA Sports FC 26 for PS4 is KSh 4,700. For KSh 200, PS4 buyers get a full season of newer squads, so the newer game is the better buy. PS5 buyers on a tight budget have a real choice to make.
What does EA Sports FC 26 add over EA Sports FC 25?
EA Sports FC 26 adds two gameplay presets, new Archetype classes and Manager Live challenges in Career Mode. The Competitive preset gives online players faster passing and more direct control. The Authentic preset slows matches down, and defenders hold their shape, which suits Career Mode. CGMagazine's review found the slower pace clear from the first match. The PS5 version also has reworked goalkeeping and quicker dribbling.
Reviewers disagree on how much this matters. Tom's Guide rates the gameplay changes among the largest the series has had in years. Beebom says PS5 players coming from EA Sports FC 25 will notice very few changes unless they mainly play FUT.
Is EA Sports FC 25 still worth buying in 2026?
Yes, EA Sports FC 25 is still worth buying in 2026 if you mostly play offline. Manager Career, Player Career, Women's Career, Clubs and Kick-Off are all on the disc, and Career Mode and Kick-Off run without internet. That matters when home internet drops at evening peak hours or a KPLC outage cuts a session short.
EA Sports FC 25 also introduced FC IQ tactics with Player Roles and the 5v5 Rush mode for friends. The trade-off is age. Its squads are from the 2024-25 season, so the latest transfers are not on the disc.
How do EA Sports FC 26 and FC 25 differ on PS4?
On PS4, both games are last-generation editions, so the gap between them is smaller than on PS5. Beebom reports that EA Sports FC 26 holds a steady 60 frames per second on PS4. It also reports that Career Mode on PS4 misses cutscenes and features found on PS5.
The PS4 edition of EA Sports FC 26 brings an international tournament mode with 48 national teams, player Archetypes and a refreshed Rivals and Champs setup in FUT. Both PS4 games support 1 to 4 players on one console. One limit to know: PS4 players cannot match up online with friends who own the PS5 version.
Should you buy EA Sports FC 27 instead?
Buy EA Sports FC 27 only if you want this season's squads and the newest modes, because it costs almost double. EA Sports FC 27 for PS5 is KSh 9,000 and EA Sports FC 27 for PS4 is KSh 8,500 at Mascom International (November 2026).
EA Sports FC 27 launched worldwide on 25 September 2026 with Kylian Mbappé on the cover. The PS5 disc carries more than 21,000 licensed players, 800+ clubs and over 140 stadiums. Career Mode gains a rebuilt Transfer Market and Dynamic OVRs that move with a player's form. The Grounds, a new social hub, is on PS5 but not on PS4, according to tbreak. For scale, EA Sports FC 26 and EA Sports FC 25 together cost KSh 8,700 on PS5, less than one copy of EA Sports FC 27.
Who should buy EA Sports FC 26, and who should buy EA Sports FC 25?
Buy EA Sports FC 26 if you own a PS4, if you play FUT or Clubs online, or if you want the slower Authentic preset for Career Mode. Buy EA Sports FC 25 if you own a PS5, play mostly on the sofa and want to save KSh 700. It fits students sharing one console in a hostel and parents buying for a teenager.
Neither game is right if you must have the 2026-27 squads. In that case, EA Sports FC 27 is the one to buy. Friends who want to play each other online should also agree on one edition and one console generation first. For couch matches, a second controller matters more than the edition, and our PS5 controllers guide lists every DualSense we stock.
