Learning from a cumulative 9.2 million frames of advanced match capture, the algorithm writes new animations in real time to create natural & realistic football motion across a variety of interactions on the pitch in FIFA 23. The result brings FIFA 23 even closer to both the professional men’s & women’s games seen in stadiums all around the world, as Hyper Motion 2 gameplay technology unlocks brand new features that deliver unprecedented animation quality both on & off the ball:- Full Team authentic Motion: Player motion data captured from two further high-intensity 11v 11 matches using Xsens suits leads to even more natural football animation in FIFA 23, captured directly from the pitch. Data captured from both a men’s & women’s match culminates in a combined total of over 6000 Hyper Motion-enabled animations that make players move & play more responsively & realistically than ever before.- Powering the Women’s Game: Dedicated Advanced 11v 11 Match Capture of a full-intensity women’s match combined with machine learning technology to power the women’s game in FIFA 23, creating authentic animation informed by the movement of real-life women’s players.- Technical Dribbling: A brand new dribbling system allows attackers to calculate their path to the ball more intelligently. Animation transitions are informed by machine learning between every dribble touch, delivering next gen visuals & variety with the ball at your feet. Whether you’re taking on a defender for pace or keeping the ball close to turn away from an opponent, ultra-responsive dribbling makes the world’s-best move more fluidly than ever before.- ML-Jockey: Machine learning technology learns from real-world defensive situations & movement taken from Advanced 11v 11 Match Capture data to rewrite the jockeying system in FIFA 23, creating more natural animations as defenders face up to oncoming attackers.- Accele RATE: New acceleration mechanics provide a new layer of personality to how players reach their top speed in FIFA 23.
