FIFA 23 Power Shot: How to Hit a Power Shot

FIFA 23 arrived like a bomb. While its price stretches many players' budgets, it's still reasonable compared to the price announced for Need for Speed. Updates about FIFA 23 keep coming. EA SPORTS added a new high-risk, high-reward shooting mechanic to the game. So let's clear up the questions you might have about it, like how do you hit a power shot in FIFA 23? What is a power shot and how do you do it?

What Is a Power Shot in FIFA 23? How Do You Do It?

EA Sports describes power shots as shots that add accuracy and power at the cost of time and greater input precision. In short, a power shot is a feature that lets players significantly increase the amount of power behind their shots, making it easier to score goals from distance. In FIFA 21, players used precision shots to hit more accurate shots and score from tighter angles. Mastering timed finishing was a complex skill, but when executed perfectly, it greatly increased your chances of scoring. Learning power shots can be a bit tricky at first, but we think you'll find the reward at the end well worth the extra motivation. :)

How Do You Hit a Power Shot in FIFA 23?

To hit a power shot, you need to press L1+R1+O on PlayStation controllers and LB+RB+B on Xbox controllers. If you do this correctly, the camera will zoom in slightly on the player with the ball, and you'll need to use the right analog stick to aim your shot. Since you won't get any assistance like you would with normal shots, you need to aim precisely if you want your shots to be accurate. Actually, this is a fairly simple process — with a bit of practice, you can master it completely. We can say that the best time to use a Power Shot is when the player on the ball doesn't have the pace to beat defenders into the box.
