A shot from the official FC 26 trailer. The grass of the soccer field is grey instead of green, and the players' kits are a contrasting blue and red.

Blink and you'll miss it, but yesterday's trailer for EA SPORTS FC 26 featured a sneak peak at the game's High Contrast Mode.

Thanks to @momoxmia.bsky.social for sharing this, and confirming it will be available in all game modes, including the competitive / PvP modes!

Despite our many advancements to do more with less, how do we spend our time saved? We bake bread. Build furniture. Play vinyl. Shoot on film. We choose to do some things the hard way because living is feeling the friction of the world around us.
