Although the exact duration of the event is yet to be announced, historical patterns suggest it will likely last for two weeks, concluding on January 3, 2025. Furthermore, players can anticipate a second wave of player cards becoming available in packs starting Friday, December 27, 2024.
Understanding the Winter Wildcards Promo
Formerly known as FUTMAS and Freeze, the Winter Wildcards is EA FC 25’s celebration of the festive season. This event is renowned for introducing numerous enhanced special cards into packs, in addition to themed Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) and objectives designed to engage players across the community.
To amplify the holiday spirit, players will have the chance to earn daily login rewards simply by partaking in SBCs. Recent leaks have suggested the introduction of a new Crafting Upgrade feature, requiring players to complete various smaller SBCs to achieve specific goals and earn valuable packs.
Additionally, last year’s event included an ‘Advent Calendar’ concept, presenting new SBCs for upgraded players daily until the event concluded. While the format for this year remains unconfirmed, players should expect a wealth of content to dive into.

Leak: The New “NumeroFUT” Cards
This year, EA FC 25 Winter Wildcards might introduce an innovative item type dubbed “NumeroFUT,” as revealed by the leaker known as ‘FUT Sheriff.’ There is still uncertainty regarding whether these cards will be included in packs or are linked to particular objectives.
Speculation surrounding the design of the NumeroFUT cards suggests a potential crossover with Marvel themes, given the design’s resemblance to the colors of the Infinity Stones. However, this connection remains speculative and has not been validated as of now.
