The new packs have officially dropped, there are new rewards and players in SBCs. This event should be everything you need to finish off FIFA 22, whilst building a foundation for FIFA 23.

The second week of FIFA 22 Pre Season is now approaching – and after a bumper kick off (albeit a slight delay), a 100 new specials were released into the game, as well as SBCs and rewards for FIFA 23.

For those new to Pre Season, EA gives you a chance to start the next game with a load of decent players – that can be unlocked via challenges. These players can be used in the current game, but also carry over to FIFA 23.

So, what can we expect?

Throughout Pre-Season in FUT 22, you’ll have the opportunity to unlock rewards in FUT 23, including Packs, Consumables, Player Loan Items, and more – alongside rewards you’ll earn in FUT 22.

During the this latest week of Pre-Season, you can earn rewards to help get you started in FUT 23. Completing Squad Building Challenges and select Objectives in FUT 22 will unlock the following in FUT 23:

New SBCs

So far, as part of the first batch, we have seen plenty great players released in SBCs. The new SBCs have celebrated any players who have moved clubs, and the cards are all of a very high standard.

We have seen a Romelu Lukaku available through objectives, whilst Erling Haaland, Renato Sanches, Jules Koundé and more have all been available through SBCs.

For people still playing the game, there are some amazing cards still releasing in the game.
