Boss AcceleRATE, height and weight

A new Boss starts Lengthy. It can be 5'11" to 6'5" (180 to 196 cm) and 176 to 220 lbs (80 to 100 kg).

Of the twelve builds above, nine are Lengthy and three are Controlled, and they stand 5'11" to 6'4".

Height and weight shift six attributes for free, measured from the Boss's default body (188 cm, 90 kg). The match reads your type after those shifts.

These thresholds are the ones FC 26 used, carried into FC 27. Check any build in the AcceleRATE calculator, read how the three types work, or see the heights and weights players build most.
