FIFA 22 has been brutalised on Metacritic and the PS5 version currently sits at a 2.6 user rating.

EA Sports released the latest instalment of their hit franchise on Friday across all console platforms.

Some fans are furious with this year's game however and have decided to leave scathing reviews online.

FIFA 22's user score sits at a paltry 2.6 based on 115 reviews with some truly abysmal ratings.

Some haven't held back and are desperate to see the game improved.

One player said: "This game is exactly the same as the last game. All the greedy developers did in this game is slap a 22 number on the cover. The lighting looks terrible and there are some bad textures. There is hardly any improvements on the gameplay.

"The developers heavily advertised the HyperMotion stuff, but the animations still manage to look like trash. I don't recommend this piece of garbage at all."

Another added: "If you think FIFA has improved? it's not because it's the f*****g same old **** honestly this game is worst then Madden 22 & it's literally a Gambling Simulator."

Someone else claimed: "Even the bare minimum cannot be met. Let's not even speak about the gameplay. Animations still look choppy, presentation and celebrations are still locked in 30 FPS (when there's not even ray tracing or open world), unscanned player faces are painful to look at."

A fourth player stressed: "Until they provide us with a new engine and take away the gambling and monetisation of every little thing, then I'm not buying this game and I suggest you shouldn't either. FIFA 15 is a quid and probably plays the same as this. Disgraceful. Who remember Pro Evo? Gameplay was king not shiny cards."

While another simply put: "Pathetic. FIFA is basically a garbage £60+ subscription. Gambling Football Simulator 2022."

Ahead of launch last week, screenshots comparing the PS5 and PS4 version went viral for the wrong reasons.

Images show how the landscape blurs and darkens when a player is just about to strike the ball on a free-kick.

Whilst some believe this is on purpose, others think it's a visual glitch that needs fixing with a patch.

Visual glitches aren't the only issues right now.

Frustrations have been aired about how easy it is to score from goal kicks as well as disappearing players.
