All new skill moves in EA FC 25

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours clocked into the FIFA franchise, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement and nostalgia as EA Sports announces the latest additions to FC 25’s skill moves. The new animations not only bring fresh gameplay mechanics but also remind me of the thrill of discovering new techniques back in the day.


In their newest addition to the popular football game series, EA Sports FIFA 25 introduces noteworthy adjustments to gameplay, along with a fresh set of skill moves for players to master on the field. With each new release, EA incorporates innovative animation for skill moves. This time around, expect the inclusion of four brand-new moves and improvements to previously existing ones.

In the digital arena of FC 25, these are the fresh skill moves we’ll soon have at our disposal, though their effectiveness in real-time competition is yet to be proven.

New skill moves in FC 25

  • Big Feint (2-star)
    • Hold L2 + Flick RS left/Right (+ LS Direction to Exit) || Hold LT + Flick RS left/Right (+ LS Direction to Exit)
  • Stop and Go (2-star)
    • Hold L2 + RS Back, Forward || Hold LT + RS Back, Forward
  • Step Over Ball (4-star)
    • Hold L1 + Flick RS Forward, Left/Right || Hold LB + Flick RS Forward, Left/Right
  • Toe Drag Stepover (5-star)
    • Hold L1 + Rotate RS Right, Back, Left / Rotate RS Left, Back, Right || Hold LB + Rotate RS Right, Back, Left / Rotate RS Left, Back, Right

Big Feint involves subtly misleading opponents as a player pretends to step over the ball before actually pushing it in the reverse direction. In Stop and Go, the player momentarily freezes in place without touching the ball, creating confusion among defending players.

The “4-star Step Over Ball” move enables you to swiftly execute a 180-degree turn by stepping over the ball, reversing your direction, and continuing on a new path. Additionally, the “Toe Drag Stepover” is an intricate footwork technique comprised of a reverse stepover and a toe touch to propel the ball forward. It concludes with brisk stepovers to baffle defenders and propel yourself past them at high speed.

The animations for Stop and Go and Step Over Ball can be canceled mid-way.

As a dedicated gamer of EA Football Club 25, I’m thrilled about the upcoming additions that are set to make my gaming experience even more exciting. Not only will we see new skill moves, but also fresh celebrations to express my victories in a unique way. Moreover, the FC IQ tactical overhaul promises to bring a new level of strategy and depth to the gameplay, allowing me to outsmart opponents with clever tactics. Can’t wait to give it a try!
