Gameplay Improvements
Football: Definitive Edition features new and improved gameplay elements. Basic things include reworked controls to make it easier for newcomers, higher resolution textures, a minimap, and new modes to keep returning players interested.
Items

Referee Behaviors
New behaviors have been added to referees. Now they will not only call out fouls, but can attack players 2 at random should they feel the need. They can also pick up firearms at any time during a match. A new call has been added to refs as well, called "I don't give a god damn anymore, just beat each other up for all I care".
