While EA has not released an official promo schedule for the community, there are certain events that consistently return each year, such as Team of the Season and Future Stars. We anticipate these will also make a comeback in EA FC 25.

The developers frequently introduce new special card campaigns as well, but these promotions are typically announced just one or two days before their start, making them difficult to predict in advance.

EA FC 24 also introduced several popular promos like Thunderstruck and Golazo, which we might see return for another year.

It’s important to note that this promo calendar is a prediction based on the previous year and popular community events. There’s always a possibility that the developers will adjust their formula by retiring older special cards, introducing new ones, or changing their release timing this season.

The first promo of EA FC 25 is likely to be Total Rush, based on leaks and not yet officially confirmed. According to well-known dataminers ‘ASY FUT’ and ‘Ciege_tv,’ this event is expected to commence on September 27, 2024, coinciding with the worldwide launch of the game.

Details on Total Rush remain scarce, but the name suggests it may be linked to the new 5v5 Rush mode being introduced in EA FC 25 Ultimate Team. Current leaks indicate that Orlando City striker Luis Muriel will feature as one of the Total Rush cards.

What are promos in EA FC 25?

Promos refer to special Ultimate Team events that showcase unique card versions of various players for your squad. Typically, these cards are released in packs, replacing the regular versions of those players for the duration of the promo.

This dynamic means that as long as a player has a promo card in packs, their Bronze, Silver, and Gold items won’t be available, potentially driving up their prices on the Transfer Market.

Each promotion generally comes with a range of Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) and Objectives to complete, rewarding players with valuable packs or exclusive cards that cannot be obtained through other means. You can also look forward to themed Evolutions to enhance your existing players.

Team of the Season stands out as one of the most popular Ultimate Team promos.

When are new promos released in Ultimate Team?

New EA FC 25 promotions are typically launched on Fridays at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST. At this time, all new items are made available in packs while previous cards are removed.

It’s important to note that new events do not occur every single week. Some promos last multiple weeks and feature more than one team of players, while occasionally the developers opt to leave a week open to prepare for significant campaigns like Team of the Year (TOTY).

Additional content often becomes available midway through a promo, whether that involves the introduction of new cards in packs or the release of an updated set of Objectives and SBCs. If you want to ensure you see and experience everything, it’s recommended to log in daily at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST to explore what’s new.
