In the crowded arena of football simulations, UFL has laced up its boots to challenge the champ, EAFC 25. Despite its commendable “fair-to-play” approach and the thrill of a grind-free game, it hasn’t yet managed to outplay its seasoned rival. While UFL packs promise with its free gameplay and innovative team-building, it’s like a striker missing a crucial pass — so close yet so far.

The game is at an impasse; there are some strategic plays that need to be made to really shake things up on the leaderboard. Here’s where tightening a few laces could make all the difference in leading the charge against EAFC’s reign.

5 Improvements That UFL Needs

UFL has potential, but it’s not quite ready to take EAFC 25’s throne. With some key changes, it could truly challenge the giant. Here are five crucial areas where UFL needs to improve:

1. Sharpen Core Gameplay Mechanics

First up, the gameplay needs a serious upgrade. Currently, UFL feels more like an arcade game, which might be fun but doesn’t satisfy the football simulation purists. Players scoring impossible goals one minute and missing simple passes the next isn’t going to cut it. Smoother animations, responsive controls, and reliable mechanics will bring consistency and elevate the experience.

2. Expand Game Modes

Variety is the spice of life, and UFL could use a few more flavors. Right now, online ranked matches are all you’ve got. Promised features like Draft mode and “Legends” sound great, but they aren’t here yet. While online ranked play is great, adding more modes, like a fully-fledged career mode, offline challenges, and perhaps interactive leagues, would keep players engaged throughout the season.

3. Balance Player Progression

UFL’s grind-to-glory system is unique but needs fine-tuning. Players grow stronger the more they’re used. However, the grind can feel too slow for casual players, making progression uneven. UFL needs a balanced system that rewards both casual and hardcore players, without making the process feel like a slog.

4. Improve Defending and Dribbling Dynamics

Let’s talk defense. As it stands, defending in UFL can feel like a gamble. Improving this starts with refining the AI so that player movements and decisions aren’t just realistic but also a bit predictable. Better defending mechanics mean players can truly master the art of interception and tackling, making the game fairer and more competitive. Dribbling starts off smooth but falls apart when sprinting, with the ball bouncing erratically. Smoother sprint dribbling mechanics will make gameplay more enjoyable.

5. Optimize and Expand Platform Availability

UFL comes to PC in 2025, but why wait? Speeding up this expansion could capture a larger audience faster. If the game performs seamlessly across all platforms. it will be able to compete on a global stage, appealing to a broader player base hungry for a new football gaming experience.

With these five improvements, UFL could close the gap and even turn the tables on EAFC 25. But the question is—will UFL rise to the challenge? And are you ready to back this underdog and help shape its future?
