Star Wars: Squadrons is getting the most extreme facelift of the lineup, especially for the Xbox Series X/S. Players can choose between a visual mode and a performance mode. The former will prioritize visual quality and EAFC 26 Coins with higher resolution and improved lighting at dynamic 4K at 60fps on the Series X and dynamic 1440p at 60fps on the S. The latter will boost fps to 120 at the same 4k resolution on X and S, but sacrifices the new lighting model.

Meanwhile, the PlayStation 5 update will run the game at 60fps with a resolution between 1440p and 4k with the new lighting model. Last but not least, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered will be available on next-gen consoles thanks to backwards compatibility, and will feature crossplay support. Though this isn't a major change, it's par for the course considering the original game is 10 years old.

These details from EA should be exciting for players who enjoy any of the games mentioned. Even the smallest upgrades will make a difference in everyday gameplay. Of course, the bigger adjustments, like in Star Wars: Squadrons, are especially interesting. At the very least, players now have more to look forward to with next-gen consoles.

FC 26 received a ton of tiny but mighty bug fixes in the game's fourth title update this week. Although the changes may not make a huge difference in gameplay, players will likely be thrilled to see some long-awaited improvements to some frustrating aspects of referee roles, celebrations, and more.

EA published FC 26 on October 5 for PlayStation 4. Xbox One, and PC. The 28th installment in the soccer series includes an Ultimate Team setting with 100 famous players, as well as a totally revamped career mode and the return of FIFA Volta. Of course, as is to be expected with new releases, FC 26 did come with some glitches and bugs, such as the referees being a bit too overzealous with handing out yellow cards.

Players were quick to report the issues, and thankfully, EA addressed them with this latest patch. As Eurogamer reported, one major change targeted referee logic so that yellow card scenarios would be decreased. Additionally, the Ball Roll to Scoop Turn skill move combination was adjusted to require a five-star skill move rating, and the Royal Wave celebration is now an option when players request a random celebration.

Aside from these more major changes, a long list of bugs were addressed, such as referees ending games during inappropriate situations in stoppage time. A few silly yet frustrating glitches were taken care of, including one where players would float in midair for a moment after a physically contested header, and one where player heads would "shift erratically." FC 26's Title Update 4 has been available on PC since October 27. and the update hit Xbox One and PS4 this week for players to download.

The next generation of consoles is slated to arrive this month, with Xbox Series X and S releasing on November 10 and PlayStation 5 following suit two days later. Since FC 26 hit stores so close to the next-gen console release dates, an enhanced version of the game is headed to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on December 4. Thankfully, for gamers who plan on snagging the new consoles, EA announced a Dual Entitlement scheme that will allow people to upgrade their copy of FC 26 for free for the duration of the game's season to buy EAFC 26 Coins and until the release of FC 26. This latest patch certainly did wonders for player complaints, but there is still plenty of work to be done, and hopefully EA will be working on even more improvements to be unveiled alongside the next-generation copy of the game.
