With the implementation of the brand new FC IQ system in the upcoming game, these mechanics will affect Career Mode as well.

However, there are several Career mode exclusive additions to the game as well:

Live Start Points

This is by far the most major addition to the game mode, as fans will now be able to pick up and play with a team or a player in Career Mode based on where they stand in the current season. They can also select pre-determined scenarios to take over from, such as a new manager being appointed, a team facing relegation, or battling for the title. This will make the game much more dynamic and immersive.


The addition of Icons and Women's leagues

The EA FC 25 Career Mode Deep Dive has also revealed that, for the first time, gamers will be able to play as Icons in Player Career Mode. This addition will track the legend's progression through their storied careers, allowing fans to virtually step into the shoes of some of the greatest athletes the sport has seen.

The top five women's leagues are also playable in both the Manager and Player Career Modes, adding a whole new side of the sport for gamers to enjoy and experiment with.


Youth Academy and Scouting

EA Sports has expanded the Youth Scouting system, with more countries and regions made available. FC IQ will play a massive part here too, as Player Roles will be instrumental in determining who the right fit for your squad is. Player progression and development in the Youth Academy will be done via the brand new Rush game mode, with 5v5 gameplay on the training ground deciding how efficiently the athlete levels up.

The EA FC 25 Career Mode Deep Dive has also showcased a new press conference system, where Managers will be asked questions by the media, and their answers will directly affect player morale.


Origin Stories

The Origin Stories system will allow fans to step into the shoes of a professional footballer and take over their career based on their roots. From following in your parent's footsteps to returning from a major injury, this will provide the ultimate rags-to-riches storyline for fans to play along with.

Along with all these new features, the EA FC 25 Career Mode Deep Dive has also showcased new simulation settings, more streamlined interface systems, as well as simplistic tasks to follow along with.
