What is a Personality Tier in FC 25? New feature explained
Let's take a look at the new feature.
When the FIFA franchise was rebranded as EA FC last year, anyone who doubted the series could survive a name change was proven wrong. With smooth gameplay and exciting new features, it remains unchallenged at the biggest football sim.
And with the release of FC 25 last month, we can breath a sigh of relief that it's still got it.
With more new features than ever, this one's an entry in which tactics are required more than before. One such feature is the Personality Tier.
If you've seen this mentioned and don't know what it's all about, fear not. We'll walk you through what it's for, and how to use it properly.

What is a Personality Tier in FC 25? New feature explained
FC 25 is the entry in the series that requires tactics more than ever before. Like in Football Manager, it's not just about the glorious game, but the planning that goes on around it.
So where does the new Personality Tier system come into all this? It's pretty confusing because the game doesn't exactly spell it out for you.
Put simply, the Personality Tier is how many playstyles a player can unlock in the game.
The play styles you can choose from at the start of the game is limited, based on what personality type you have. Once you get to the top tier of a personality, you'll be able to unlock a new playstyle.
A playstyle has a massive impact on the game as it gives players specific abilities and skills. For example, a player with a Power Header style will perform headers with much higher accuracy and speed than one without.
So it's definitely worth unlocking new playstyles if you want the upper hand, and getting the top tier of a personality is the best way to do this.
