EA has gone above and beyond to mark the 15th anniversary of the beloved Ultimate Team game mode with the Ultimate Birthday event. The FC 24 Secret Stuff Evolutions Guide is now available to offer players all the necessary details.
This week, the online mode has been updated significantly, with new celebrations and game faces. Moreover, EA has brought in a range of fresh content to Ultimate Team, including some outstanding players in packs and via SBCs.
One of the latest additions to FC 24 Ultimate Team is Evolutions, a feature introduced this year. EA has unveiled two new EVOs for Ultimate Team, and in this guide, we will lead you through the entire Secret Stuff Evolutions journey.
Secret Stuff Evolutions Guide
EA recently released a new update for FC 24, which allows players to upgrade their cards at no cost. The addition of Evolutions has been incredibly popular among FC 24 players since its initial release, resulting in each Ultimate Team having its own unique style thanks to the diverse range of evolved players.
In this article, we will walk you through the player requirements for the Secret Stuff Evolution, suggest three players that we believe are the best to evolve, and provide you with a list of challenges to complete, along with their corresponding rewards.
So, without any further delay, let's explore the player requirements for the Secret Stuff Evolution.
Player Requirements
Like all of the Evolutions in FC 24, you will need to evolve a player that meets the specific requirements set by EA, so not everyone in the game will fit into this category.
Whether you decide to pick a player from your favourite club or develop someone into an overpowered beast, you will need to ensure you pick your player wisely because once you do, you cannot change them.
Here are the requirements you need for the Secret Stuff Evolution:
- Pace: Max. 91
- Shooting: Max. 89
- Dribbling: Max. 88
- Physical: Max. 75
- No. of PlayStyles: Max. 6
- No. of PlayStyles+: Max. 1
- Skill Moves: Max. 4*
Best players for the Secret Stuff Evolution
Here we will give you two options on who you can use in the Secret Stuff Evolution, that will completely transform your team!
The player has to meet the requirements above, so unfortunately you will not be able to evolve the likes of Robert Lewandowski, or Vinicius Jr, for example. Let's see the two players we have chosen for this Evolution:
Robert Pires (Thunderstruck Icon – 89 OVR)
Our first choice for the Secret Stuff Evolution is Thunderstruck Icon Robert Pires. This EVO is fantastic and once Pires evolves, he increases to a 91 OVR player with insane stats including, 91 pace, 83 shooting, 90 passing, and 90 dribbling as his standout stats. On top of that, the Frenchman can play at LM, RM, CAM, and LW, and has the Finesse Shot PS+.
Hernan Crespo (Future Stars Icon – 89 OVR)
The next player we suggest using in the Secret Stuff Evolution is Argentinian striker Hernan Crespo and his Future Stars Icon card! This player looks insane once evolved, increasing to a 91 OVR with 92 pace, 90 shooting, 81 passing, and 90 dribbling. Crespo is another Icon player with the Finesse Shot PS+ which looks even better on this new Evolution.
