On Monday 27th October 2025, I sat down with FC26 developers Andreas Wilsdorf and Bogdan Banasiewicz to discuss football games, realistic gameplay, what we can hope for with Authentic Mode in the coming years, and how community feedback is used (including last week's R1 dribbling update).

Thanks so much to EA for arranging this interview and to Andreas and Bogdan for spending an hour talking football games with me!
