EA SPORTS FC™ 26 | FC 26 PC Deep Dive

Hey everyone! In the PC Deep Dive Pitch Notes we’re diving into all the ways we’ve improved the PC experience for EA SPORTS FC 26. Thanks to your feedback, we’ve made foundational changes that give you more control, smoother performance, and clearer settings across the board.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • Controller Support Enhancements
  • Expanded Display Settings
  • Improved Graphics Settings Usability
  • Display Settings Guide
  • Graphics Settings Guide
  • PC Requirements
  • EA Javelin Anticheat

[h2]Controller Support Enhancements[/h2]

We know many of you play on PC with controllers, and this year we’ve added more immersive support.

  • DualShock®4 Support: Full vibration support when playing on PC with a USB connection.
  • DualSense™ Controller Support: Includes haptics and adaptive triggers for a more immersive experience with a USB connection (basic vibration support over Bluetooth).

[h2]Expanded Display Settings[/h2]

We’ve added more flexibility so you can fine tune FC 26 to match your setup and preferences.

  • Active Monitor Selection: Choose which monitor you want to run the game on directly from in-game settings.
  • Aspect Ratio Filter: Quickly find supported resolutions based on your display’s aspect ratio.
  • More Frame Rate Limit Options: Frame rate limits now extend beyond 120 FPS, with support for 144, 165, and 240 FPS.
  • More VSync Options: Sync your frame rate to a fraction of your monitor’s refresh rate (½, ⅓, ¼).
  • Render Scale: Adjust resolution relative to your render setting, especially useful for windowed or borderless modes.
  • Dynamic Resolution FPS Target: Set a performance target to trigger dynamic resolution scaling automatically.

[h2]Improved Graphics Settings Usability[/h2]

We’ve worked to make PC graphics settings easier to understand and quicker to configure.

  • Informative Settings Descriptions: Every graphics setting now includes descriptions and impact details on CPU, GPU, and VRAM usage.
  • Graphics Quality Presets: Switch between predefined options like Low, Medium, High, Ultra, and Auto to adjust quality settings (restart required to take effect).

[h2]Display Settings Guide[/h2]

Here’s a breakdown of key display settings, grouped for easier navigation.

[h3]Screen Setup[/h3]
  • Active Monitor (NEW): Choose which monitor displays the game in Borderless or Full Screen.
  • Display Mode:
    Borderless: Fills your screen without borders (cannot be resized).
    Fullscreen: Uses your entire screen.
    Windowed: Runs in a resizable, movable window.
  • Aspect Ratio (NEW): Filters resolutions by chosen aspect ratio (Fullscreen only).
  • Screen Resolution: Sets display resolution. Higher = sharper image, but lower performance (Fullscreen only). Borderless uses OS resolution. Tip: use Render Scale to adjust in Borderless.

[h3]Frame Rate & Refresh[/h3]
  • Refresh Rate: Controls how often your monitor refreshes (Fullscreen only).
  • Frame Rate Limit: Caps FPS when VSync is off.
  • VSync: Syncs FPS to your monitor to prevent tearing.
    Off: No sync.
    On: Matches refresh rate.
    50%, 33%, 25%: Syncs FPS to a fraction of refresh rate.
    [Example: On a 240Hz monitor → 120 FPS (50%), 80 FPS (33%), 60 FPS (25%).
  • Cutscene Performance: Controls FPS in cutscenes, menus, replays, and set-piece cameras.
    Half Frame Rate: 50% of refresh rate or frame limit.
    Full Frame Rate: Matches your frame rate limit. Disabled when VSync is fractional.

[h3]Scaling Tools[/h3]
  • Render Scale (NEW): Adjusts render resolution relative to screen resolution.
    Below 100% = better performance, less sharp
    Above 100% = sharper visuals, heavier GPU load.
  • Dynamic Resolution Scaling (DRS): Lowers resolution dynamically to maintain FPS (GPU-limited only).
  • Dynamic Resolution FPS Target: Set the FPS you want DRS to maintain.
    Example: Target 90 FPS → resolution scales in real time to stay near 90 FPS.


[h2]Graphics Settings Guide[/h2]

The game will need to be restarted for changes to graphics settings to take effect.

[h3]Graphics Presets (NEW)[/h3]
  • Auto: Optimized for your hardware.
  • Low: Best for minimum-spec PCs.
  • Medium: Balanced visuals and performance.
  • High: Improved fidelity for stronger PCs.
  • Ultra: Maximum detail for top-tier hardware.
