As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must admit that the latest addition to EA Sports FC 25 has truly caught my attention. The new skill moves and tweaks to existing ones have taken the gameplay to a whole new level.
In EA Sports FC 25, you can mimic the tricky maneuvers your favorite athletes execute on the field. These agile moves have been instrumental in successful attacks, particularly during intense competitive games. To excel in the competitive scene of FIFA 25, learning and incorporating a few elegant tricks into your repertoire could greatly enhance your performance in matches.
2023 is similar to past years in that Electronic Arts continues to spice things up with innovative skill moves and fresh celebrations for players to experiment with in EA Sports FC 25. This year’s edition features four all-new skill moves, along with slight tweaks to some existing ones. The brand-new skill moves span from 2-star moves to 5-star, offering something exciting for every gamer in the game.
All New Skill Moves & How To Perform Them
A total of four new skill moves are included in EA Sports FC 25:
- Big Feint
- Stop and Go
- Step Over Ball
- Toe Drag Stepover
Big Feint (2-Star Skill Move)
- How to Perform: Hold L2 + flick RS left/right (+ LS direction to exit) || Hold LT + flick RS left/right (+ LS direction to exit)
Initially, we’ve got a 2-star skill maneuver that many players within the game can execute. This move aims to deceive opponents by creating an illusion that your player is heading in one direction, causing them to react defensively based on that false impression.
To execute the Big Feint, subtly shift your right stick (either left or right) as you maintain pressure on the L2/LT button. When the player begins the step-over move, gently steer your left stick in the opposite direction to break free. This trick makes the defending team’s player lunge towards one side for a tackle, providing you with an opening to dash through on the other side.
Stop And Go (2-Star Skill Move)
- How to Perform: Hold L2 + RS back, forward || Hold LT + RS back, forward (cancelable)
Up next is another easy-to-master two-star skill move. In this move, your player will feign a slowdown during dribbling, trick the opponents with a false turnaround, and swiftly outrun the defender afterwards.
To initiate this action, keep pressing L2/LT (on PS4/Xbox) and gently push the right stick backwards. To mislead your opponent’s defense, your player will first stop with the ball and then appear as if turning to the opposite side. If executed correctly, the defender will likely lunge towards your back. As they react to your feint, you’ll find an opportunity to advance (towards your front) that you can take advantage of.
Step Over Ball (4-Star Skill Move)
- How to Perform: Hold L1 + flick RS forward, and left/right || Hold LB + flick RS forward, left/right (cancelable)
Now for a more challenging skill move: Step Over Ball, a 4-star move that appears relatively straightforward but might be a valuable addition to your meta-skill arsenal. With this action, your player can step over and turn 270 degrees toward the exit while guarding the ball.
In simpler terms, keep holding the left joystick (L1/LB), push the right joystick forward to perform a turnaround while continuing to move forward. Swiftly adjust the right joystick to either the left or right after this, enabling you to exit from either side. This maneuver is particularly useful when a defender approaches from behind and seems to be heading towards your front. By quickly reversing direction (L1/LT + RS forward) and moving in the direction of the opening created (RS L/R) as soon as the defender makes their tackle, you can easily evade them.
Toe Drag Stepover (5-Star Skill Move)
- How to Perform: Hold L1 + rotate RS right, back, left / rotate RS left, back, right || Hold LB + rotate RS right, back, left / rotate RS left, back, right
As a dedicated soccer enthusiast, I must say, mastering the Toe Drag Stepover is an accomplishment reserved for the elite few with a five-star skill rating. Similar to other skill moves, this nifty trick is all about making the opponent think they have you cornered, only to create a gap for me to dance past with the ball.
To perform this skill action, press and hold L1/LB, then guide the right stick left or right (depending on the direction you want to feign), followed by rotating the right stick backward. After that, keep turning the right stick in the opposite direction (reverse rotation) from your initial direction. This will help you perform a turnaround if you’re going backwards, and change directions if you were moving left or right.
Other Skill Move Adjustments In EA Sports FC 25
In FIFA 25, EA has made minor adjustments to some skill move animations and control inputs. Here’s a rundown of all the alterations:
- New Trickster Fake Shots: Square/Circle + X + LS direction || X/B + A + LS direction from stand or jog
- Drag Back Spin (4 Star): Hold L2 + flick RS forward, flick left/right || Hold LT + flick RS forward, flick left/right.
- New 180° Flair nutmeg (4-star) animation: Hold L1 + R1 + flick RS direction || Hold LB + RB + flick RS direction
