It is the second game from EA Sports based on the quadrennial UEFA European Championship and features all 51 national teams from the respective qualifying round.

If, like me, you were watching most of Euro 2004, then this game will remind you of the great competition in Portugal. It's not as smooth or realistic as FIFA, but it is fun to play nonetheless.

UEFA Euro 2004: Portugal received 'generally favorable reviews' on all platforms except the Xbox version, which received 'average' reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[20][21][22]GameSpot favored its gameplay and options in comparison to FIFA 2004 and praised the Windows version in particular for the improved visuals and online multiplayer.[8]IGN specially praised the sound design of the game, stating that 'the commentary is spot-on and not often repetitive, as we've come to expect. What's really impressive, however, is the crowd noise. Country-specific chants are a nice touch, and the din of the crowd overall is synched well with the action on the field.'[15]

However, the PlayStation 2 version was criticized for its inferior graphics, frame rate issues, and lack of online multiplayer when compared to the Xbox and PC versions respectively.[9]
