EA’s FIFA 13 is set to get a hefty patch that will resolve several bugs in the football game. The download will address glitches that have created invisible balls, dodgy passing and some questionable commentary.

The patch is EA’s answer to an episode of BBC’s Watchdog which scrutinised FIFA 13′s game-breaking problems.

Here are the full title update notes:
