The main event is set to get underway in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team after the full Team of the Year XI was revealed by EA.
Each set of positions will be released individually, before the full release of cards takes place in the following week.
The trio of attackers is said to be the first release, so keep an eye out for them in packs soon!
TOTY Ratings
If you missed it, EA has already revealed the official Team of the Year ratings with Robert Lewandowski and Lionel Messi leading the way with 98 OVR.
There are no 99 OVR players just yet, and we may have to wait for the Team of the Season event later in the year for those to arrive.
One thing we don't know yet is the individual stats, and we all have our eyes fixed on the pace attribute!
Take a look at how this year's XI is rated in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.
Ultimate XI Ratings:
- Gianluigi Donnarumma (OVR 96)
- Achraf Hakimi (OVR 93)
- Marquinhos (OVR 95)
- Ruben Dias (OVR 97)
- Joao Cancelo (OVR 94)
- N'Golo Kante (OVR 96)
- Jorginho (OVR 97)
- Kevin De Bruyne (OVR 96)
- Lionel Messi (OVR 98)
- Robert Lewandowski (OVR 98)
- Kylian Mbappe (OVR 97)
Teasing Trio
It looks like the Team of the Year attackers will be the first cards released in this year's event, so get ready for Kylian Mbappe, Robert Lewandowski, and Lionel Messi.
The three attackers have had just one of their base stats revealed in the latest loading screen, along with their overall.
Bayern Munich striker Lewandowski is said to be the player on the left, with 95 Physical playing a part in his 98 OVR.
We would expect Kylian Mbappe to have 99 Pace, so we think the French superstar will be the card in the middle with incredible 98 Dribbling.
This leaves his PSG teammate Messi to be the card on the right. 93 Pace may not be the fastest card in the game, but his other stats are sure to be massive.
Attackers Release Date
The attackers are set to be released on Friday, 21 January at 1pm ET / 6pm GMT.
We also expect the Honourable Mentions to arrive in the game at the same time, and there could be some big names among those selected.
