EA has released the third major Title Update for FC 25, presenting a number of important patches and gameplay adjustments to further enhance the overall in-game experience for players.

While it has enjoyed a somewhat smoother post-launch than its predecessor, FC 25 has still encountered annoying bugs, glitches, and other technical issues of its own. However, EA is continuing to improve the game each month through the release of extensive Title Updates.

FC 25 Title Update 5 Released

FC 25 Title Update 5 is available to download across all console and PC platforms, and it will also be released for Switch versions of the game very soon.

Title Update 4 introduced a host of fixes and changes across Ultimate Team, Career Mode, Clubs, and more earlier in November, but EA isn't slowing down as attempts are made to improve the FC 25 experience even further.

Becoming the third biggest update of the game's cycle so far, Title Update 5 once again sees enhancements to the aforementioned modes, in addition to general gameplay, audio, and visual aspects of the game.
