FIFA 21 Volta: Online play, new locations, early access & more EA SPORTS[jwplayer CIjKnlLy]FIFA 21 is fast-approaching, and they\u2019ve started to provide more details on all of their major game modes. Alongside Ultimate Team, Career Mode and Pro Clubs, Volta Football is making its return. For those uninitiated, Volta was added in FIFA 20 as a mode vaguely similar to the FIFA Street games of old; combining three, four, or five-a-side street football across various global locations with a story mode in the absence of The Journey. The mode is getting a revamp in FIFA 21 though, with new features and locations added to help expand the Volta universe even more. Here\u2019s what\u2019s new. Contents Volta Squads online – New stadiums and locations – Featured Battles – Character customization – Early access – FIFA 21 Volta demo – Volta Squads takes mode online While Volta offered a fun single-player alternative to the likes of Ultimate Team and Pro Clubs, one thing that many players wanted was to be able to play Volta online \u2014 and now you\u2019re going to get the chance. Volta Squads adds online play, offering players the opportunity to \u201cjoin together with up to three friends or drop into the community with other Volta Football players and win as one in 5v5 online cooperative play.\u201d New stadiums and locations FIFA 20 saw Volta Football launch with 17 different locations, including Tokyo, London, Paris, Mexico City and Rio De Janeiro. Now, EA SPORTS have revealed three of the five new location they will be adding to FIFA 21. They are Downtown Sao Paulo, a Milan street pitch and a high-tech geodesic dome in Dubai. Here\u2019s a complete list of locations that will be in FIFA 21 Volta Football: Tokyo – Parking Lot – Amsterdam Underpass – London – Lagos – Paris – Mexico City – Venice Beach – Cape Town – Warehouse – Rio De Janeiro – New York – Buenos Aires – Rome – Miami – Berlin – Barcelona – Sao Paulo – Milan – Dubai – & two more unannounced locations – Volta Featured Battles Another new feature in Volta is Featured Battles. Although we don\u2019t know a whole lot about the mode just yet, you can recruit \u201cthe biggest names from the world of football and beyond\u201d to your Volta squad in Featured Battles. Using this squad, you can match up against AI-controlled stars as well as other squads from the Volta community, competing for points and rewards. Being able to recruit names from the football world and beyond is definitely food for thought \u2014 could we see top athletes from other sports crossing over to compete on the streets? We\u2019ll have to wait and see. Volta character customization Character customization returns once again in FIFA 21, with players given more opportunity to recreate themselves \u2014 or literally anyone \u2014 in the mode. Male or female avatars can be created with new apparel from professional football clubs, street football collectives, and celebrity-designed collections. There has not been a full reveal of these yet, but the celebrity-designed collections could be interesting \u2014 could they tie in the \u201cthe biggest names of the football world and beyond?\u201d How to play Volta early The best way to get hands on with FIFA 21 and Volta Football early is by using your EA Access subscription \u2014 make sure to find out everything you need to know about FIFA 21 EA Access using our handy guide. With EA Access, you\u2019ll be able to get into FIFA 21 several days early as well as knock some money off the total price, providing you don\u2019t mind paying the subscription fee for EA SPORTS\u2019 service. EA Access only allows players 10 hours of total game time, and it can\u2019t yet be guaranteed that Volta will be included in that, though the trial usually includes all game modes. Alternatively, those who pre-order the game can sometimes get hands-on a bit earlier too, usually three days. These are the only two ways you can play Volta earlier than the game\u2019s October 9 release date. Will Volta be in FIFA 21 demo? The demo version of FIFA games doesn\u2019t usually include many game modes, usually just letting players get a feel for the new title ahead of launch with a select few teams in Kick Off mode. That said, it\u2019s not impossible that Volta is included, especially as they\u2019re clearly trying to bolster the mode\u2019s presence this year, though we\u2019ll have to wait for official confirmation from EA SPORTS on what the demo will include. That\u2019s all we know about FIFA 21\u2019s Volta mode so far, though EA have said that a full reveal will be coming in August, hopefully with some more exciting details to come and answering any questions that remain ahead of the game\u2019s October launch. The mode fell to the way side slightly in FIFA 20, but it\u2019s clearly undergoing a huge revamp in FIFA 21 and players can expect a lot more from the mode now. So, will you be giving it a go?
