The patch notes for EA FC 25 Title Update 7 are now available. They address several key issues in Ultimate Team and other game modes. This update also includes a boost for goalkeepers, which players have been requesting for some time.

The update improves two main aspects of goalkeeper performance. One of them is goalkeepers will now catch saveable shots more frequently instead of deflecting them. This reduces instances where parried balls lead to unnecessary risks. Moreover, goalkeepers are now more likely to attempt saves on chip shots, even when the ball goes over their heads.

Apart from that, the update also adjusts lob through balls to make them less effective, ensuring a more balanced gameplay experience.

EA FC 25 Title Update 7 Patch Notes

Here are the full patch notes of the EA FC 25 Title Update 7:

Ultimate Team

Addressed the following issues:

• When opening a Player Pick Item and performing specific actions, the Player Item could display as tradable; this was a visual issue only.
• Addressed a stability issue that could occur when opening multiple Player Pick Packs.
• Sometimes, Player Item portraits could have appeared misaligned with the rest of the Player Item during the walkout animation.
• When opening a pack containing double walkout Player Items, the details of the second Player Item were shown.
  • Details of the first player reveal will now be displayed in the tunnel sequence.
• Sometimes, the country flag was not displayed on time during the pack opening animation.

Gameplay

Addressed the following issues:

• In certain situations the positioning system was bringing players too close to the ball carrier when cutting off passing lanes, resulting in autotackles.
• This could also result in midfielders being pulled out of position to overload the ball carrier, reducing passing options.
• Addressed multiple situations where the goalkeeper would deflect the ball instead of catching it, making it look like they “fumbled” the save.
• Addressed an issue where skill moves could be unresponsive or not be triggered.
• Addressed an issue where the goalkeeper could sometimes fail to perform desperation animations when running back to the goal on chip shots.
• Addressed an issue where the player not receiving the ball from the ball kid could cause a broken throw-in animation, preventing the game from progressing.
• Addressed issues where attempting a lobbed through pass would sometimes result in a through ground pass instead.
• Players were incorrectly able to do precision lobs off of headers, which could result in headers launching enormous distances across the field.
• We have resolved this issue and players will no longer be able to perform this action.
• Sometimes the goalkeeper could trigger an unrealistic jumping animation during a save.
• Addressed an issue where the Precision Pass UI would incorrectly enlarge after a pass was made.
• Addressed an issue where a Super Cancel sometimes did not stop the player from running after the ball.
• Reduced accuracy of first-time lofted through passes.
• In rare situations, players could appear invisible on the Pitch.

Clubs

Addressed the following issues:

• At the Top Performers screen, the CPU Avatar could have incorrect body types.
