Dribbling is more realistic than ever in FIFA 23 following the release of the HyperMotion 2.0 technology.

Players with high ball control attributes truly feel like game-changing talents, making the skill moves they pull off in-game dangerously effective.

You may have your favourite skill moves from past versions of the game, but FIFA 23 has a handful of new moves which you’ll want to learn and add to your arsenal as soon as possible.


1. Jog Open Fake Shot (1 star)

A perfect example of the impact of the new dribbling mechanics, the Jog Open Fake Shot allows explosive players to fake a shot while dribbling and drive away from their defenders in the blink of an eye.

2. Stand Open Up Fake Shot (1 star)

Similar to the first, the Stand Open Up Fake Shot can be performed when the player is stationary.

3. First Time Feint Turn (1 star)

Done on your first touch before controlling the ball, this one allows players to let the ball roll past them and immediately begin a dribble move.

4. Stutter Feint (3 star)

Reminiscent of Diego Maradona, the Stutter Feint allows players to shimmy one way before bursting into a dribble in the other direction.

5. Heel to Ball Roll (4 star)

Players with 4 star skills can flick the ball back to their trailing foot and roll the ball past their opponent. It’s deadly in game due to the speed of the move, which is all part of the HyperMotion 2.0 technology.

6. Explosive Fake Shot (4 star)

The Explosive Fake Shot allows players to dummy a shot and push the ball away in another direction, rather than keep the ball at their feet.

7. Heel Fake (5 star)

The only new 5 star addition to FIFA 23, the Heel Fake is a thing of beauty. The game’s top skillers can drag the ball behind them using their heel to wrong-foot defenders from a stationary position.
