Overall this is an admirable attempt at getting a giant console game onto mobile devices. Sadly, poor menus and clunky controls hold it back from being a true champion and it instead provides some mid-table fun.

Critic reviews
- 5.0So, I'm sure the very perceptive among you have figured out how disappointed I am with FIFA 16 UT. EA has turned the best football series on the App Store into a game about menus with the occasional basic ball-kicking. You'll spend much more time going through badly-designed and unecessarily complicated menus than playing football. Where does that leave FIFA 16 UT? Well, if you want to play a CCG, there are much better CCGs out there than this clearly Pay-to-Win game.
- 8.1FIFA 16 runs much faster and looks much sharper than its predecessors. Online play is a blast. It’s absolutely free to play. There are a ton of player configuration options. FIFA 16 is quite heavy, and doesn’t work well with lower-end devices, causing severe stuttering issues. The passing system is currently broken, often times passing the ball to the wrong player. Top soccer players are costly. There’s only one camera angle.
- 7.0I feel like we might be at peak FIFA overall, in the sense that it’s a juggernaut franchise and the leading brand in the world’s most popular sport. It would probably need something revolutionary on mobile to take people who aren’t already fans to sit up and take notice, and while the soft launch title suggested we might get it, FIFA 16 Ultimate Team ends up playing it quite safe. Like a Premier League team that is well clear of the relegation zone but no threat for Champions League play, it does what it needs to do to maintain, but nothing more than that.
- 8.0FIFA 16 plays an excellent game of football but the lack of modes outside of Ultimate Team and dreadful menu design hold it back from true greatness.
- Pur avendo migliorato diversi aspetti dell'azione sul campo (che rimane comunque incomparabile con una simulazione calcistica vera e propria), FIFA 16 Ultimate Team fallisce proprio nella gestione della sua componente manageriale, con una struttura appesantita da troppi elementi, un'interfaccia macchinosa oltre ogni logica e una serie di problemi legati alla costante connessione col network richiesta dall'applicazione.
