Fifa 20 PS4 Patch Career Mode Bugs Fixes

Update: FIFA 20 patch 1.05 is now available to download on PS4. It's around 1GB in size. Let's hope it works!


Original story: FIFA 20 has been out for almost three weeks now, and the game's been plagued with problems since day one -- especially the oft-neglected Career Mode. Bugged team selection means that top clubs like Liverpool and Manchester City are being relegated, post-match interviews make no sense, in-game news articles are borked, and in some cases, the Champions League and Europe League are being abandoned after a few seasons. This year, Career Mode has been nothing short of a disaster.

Enthusiasts may not have to aim angry tweets at EA Sports for much longer, however. Due for release later this week on PlayStation 4, FIFA 20's fourth title update promises to fix a bunch of Career Mode issues. We've included the specific patch notes below.

The full patch notes are bloody huge, so be sure to check out the official post.
