David Rutter, the line producer of the FIFA franchise, has commented on how important the new First Touch mechanic is to the next title in the series.
According to Rutter First Touch “totally changes the way you have to play the game”, adding “You have to think about how you’re receiving and passing the ball.” He then went onto talk about the importance of the new mechanic stating, “If you look at how big a change last year’s Tactical Defending was, First Touch is its equal”.
As the Tactical Defending feature massively changed the defence side of the game it sounds like another massive change is coming but we will have to wait and see if it truly changes the game that much.
