The FIFA 22 Update 8 is here and brings a fix for the Drag To Drag Skill Move and a host of other bugs. Here are the full patch notes.

EA Sports have been pumping out some major updates for FIFA 22 the last few months. Devs have patched everything from stadium glitches causing to crazy goalies and impossible driven passes.

These patches have gone a long way to fixing some of the game’s biggest issues. Update 8 isn’t as massive, but still attempts to fix some lingering issues.

Here’s what’s in FIFA 22 Title Update 8 and the full patch notes.

FIFA 22 Drag To Drag Skill Move change

The big change in FIFA 22 update #8 is to the Drag to Drag skill move, which can now be interrupted earlier in the animation after being performed with the right analog input.

This should make things easier on defending players looking to break up attacking plays, while players attempting to pull off Drag to Drag will have to be a bit more careful.

A change some players will be happy about is EA finally addressing some of the issues with automatically switching between players.

Specifically, EA says they’ve fixed how it works for the defense when an attacking player is performing a cross.

Auto Switching did not occur as expected for the defending team if their controlled player was Containing, which was very annoying to have to deal with. Hopefully, it should be a thing of the past after the update.
