The Input Overlay setting lets you see actions you perform in FIFA 23. Check out how to use it here, including the different options you have.
Option one:
- Start FIFA 23.
- Go to the Customise tile on the main menu.
- Choose Settings.
- Click Game Settings, then go to the Visual tab.
- Scroll through the list until you get to Input Overlay.
- Choose your preferred Input Overlay option.
Option two:
- Start a FIFA 23 match.
- Pause the match.
- Go to Settings.
- Click Game Settings, then go to the Visual tab.
- Scroll through the list until you get to Input Overlay.
- Choose your preferred Input Overlay option.
The Input Overlay setting can be configured in three ways.
Off
No input related controller graphics are displayed on screen.
Input Only
One controller graphic is displayed in the top right corner of your screen during matches, and it works differently depending on what kind of match you’re playing.
- Offline match: The controller graphic mirrors the actions you perform, like button presses on your physical controller.
- Online match: When playing an online match on a FIFA Game Data Center, the controller graphic automatically changes into the Online Response one.
- Peer to Peer Online: These online matches don’t use FIFA Game Data Centers, meaning that the controller graphic displays the actions performed on your physical controller as they are processed by the game.
Local Input + Online Response
Two controller graphics are displayed on the top-right corner of your screen during online matches played on FIFA Game Data Centers.
- The first controller graphic is Local Input and mirrors the actions you perform on your physical controller.
- The second controller graphic is Online Response, which shows the same inputs but after they've been processed by a FIFA Game Data Center and your network. This Input Overlay option is only available for matches played on FIFA Game Data Centers.
When this option is chosen but an offline match is played, the “Input Only” option is automatically used.
Why it takes longer for the Online Response graphic to show actions compared to Local Input
Connection Quality factors like ping, packet loss, and jitter can affect the Online Response controller graphic. To learn more about them, check out our article on Connection Quality and how it can impact your FIFA 23 experience.
