There is a festive mood in the FC 24 quarters as this week marks the birthday of the Ultimate Team mode, and fans anticipate the arrival of the Ultimate Birthday promo in FC24. The Ultimate Team mode was launched in March 2009, making this year its 15th anniversary.
Last year’s FUT Birthday promo introduced many legendary cards such as Vinicius Junior, Mats Hummels, and Anthony. Given the caliber of legendary players that have been part of this year’s promotions, we anticipate that the birthday event will surpass what we experienced in 2023.
EA FC 24 Ultimate Birthday start date
The Ultimate Birthday promo is scheduled to arrive on March 15 at 6 p.m. GMT, according to leaks. Two squads are expected to be released, with each likely remaining available for one week, as is the standard duration of a promo in FC24.
Fans noticed the impending arrival of the Ultimate Birthday through a loading screen, which featured a purple-and-white version of the cards that will be available. This marks a departure from the usual blue accent typically present in such announcements.
What to expect from the Ultimate Birthday promo?
Considering the scale of the event, we expect some solid cards to show up. Twitter is ablaze, showing the arrival of Lionel Messi, Karim Benzema, Kevin de Bruyne, and Heng-min-Son.
These are solid players with OVRs over 90 in FC 24. We think that as part of the birthday promotion, EA will provide you with the opportunity with the opportunity to upgrade them further, taking them to legendary status.
FC 24 also provided numerous evolutions in its promos, with Golden Glowup introduced most recently. We expect a new evolution similar to that for the UT birthday event. There will also be two versions of each player released, one with a five-star weak foot and another with skill moves.
This setup should provide gamers with plenty of challenges to complete throughout the promo. As usual, there will be cards released as part of objectives and SBCs. The celebration is expected to bring a ton of content to FC 24 until players reach the Team of the Year promo that will begin later this year.
