FIFA 19 on Nintendo Switch offers an experience almost on par with the other versions of the game. This version’s visuals are kind of weak on TV mode, however, it also proves to be enough when playing on handheld mode. Furthermore, it features all of the available options for the Champions League, the Ultimate Team as well as other game modes.

Undoubtedly fun, especially on the move.

FIFA 19 is a step in the right direction. There are still some big differences between this and the main versions of the game, but it’s a great way to enjoy FIFA on your Switch.

FIFA 19’s numerous improvements on and off the pitch mean it overtakes its predecessor as the best football game released on a Nintendo system, and it’s still a technical marvel when played in handheld mode. That said, EA’s decision not to improve Ultimate Team and Career – arguably the two most popular modes – feel like a missed opportunity. It’s better than last year’s game, then, but not as much as it could have been. If you're new to FIFA, then add one point to the score below; this is the best soccer game on Switch by a mile. However, if you're a grizzled veteran - as pretty much anyone who is contemplating a purchase is likely to be, given the advanced age of EA's premier sports franchise, then the score stands.

This is a great backup version, but a largely inferior edition of a terrific game.

FIFA 19 brings the second iteration of the world's most popular football game series to the Nintendo Switch and this delivery improves on its predecessor when it comes to gameplay and competitions. It does not go all the way, however, when it comes to visual performance and to the AI's behaviour, not to mention the disappointing lack of some gaming modes. While FIFA 19 does its part to bring football back to Nintendo platforms, it still needs to go further to become truly indispensable title.

A smaller, dirtiest and less smart version of the good game available on the other platforms.
