When EA announced that it would be bringing a version of FIFA to the Switch we were elated. Then, after months of radio silence, we were concerned that the port wasn't going to shape up quite like we hoped. After Steep seemed to disappear into the nether and reports that the port had run into some trouble surfaced online, we assumed that FIFA might meet the same fate, with EA putting the Switch version on the back-burner in favor of the more promising PS4 and XBO versions.
Well here we are. We're finally getting a fully-featured FIFA game, with great visuals, in portable form. You can see from the video above that gameplay for the most part seems to rock at 1080p / 60fps. It was a bit hard to tell, but I think during some portions, during close-up shots the framerate would drop to 30fps. Either way performance seemed consistent across the board, player models are convincing and well-animated, and there doesn't seem to be any aggravating aliasing to note.
