Unexpected ratings for Bayern Munich in FIFA 26 fall short of expectations from EA
In the world of football video games, the release of Electronic Arts' (EA) FIFA 26 (or EA FC 26) has stirred up a storm of discussions and speculation among the gaming community. The leaked ratings for this year's game have revealed some surprising changes, particularly for Bayern Munich players.
One of the most notable drops is the rating of Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane, who has seen his rating drop to 89 in EA FC 26. This is a slight weakening compared to his previous rating, and it has left many fans questioning the reasons behind this adjustment.
Similarly, Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer, a stalwart in the game, has seen a significant drop in his rating, falling from 86 to 83. This decrease has added fuel to the fire of debate, with many fans expressing their surprise and disappointment.
However, it's not all bad news for Bayern Munich. Defender Dayot Upamecano has been upgraded by three points, now standing at 85, while midfielder Michael Olise has climbed an impressive four points to 86.
The reasons for these changes in player ratings are not explicitly stated in the leaked information. However, it's common knowledge that higher ratings in EA FC 26 indicate a more performance-oriented player in the game, based on criteria such as speed, technique, shooting power, defensive abilities, or game overview.
The leaked ratings have also sparked discussions about the performances of other players. Sasha Boey, for instance, has lost two points and is rated lower than expected, while Leroy Sané and João Palhinha have both lost two points, now rated at 83. Leon Goretzka and Konrad Laimer's ratings have been adjusted slightly.
Interestingly, a teammate of Thomas Müller is in high demand in the Bundesliga, although the exact identity remains a mystery. The ratings for Thomas Müller himself have not been officially published yet.
For many fans, the ratings are crucial to building their teams and planning strategies in EA FC 26. The leaked ratings for Bayern Munich have certainly added an element of intrigue to the game, as fans eagerly await the official release to see how their favourite players stack up.
