FUT Moments
The brand new FIFA 23 Ulitmate Team reveal trailer has showcased some brand new features arriving to the mode, with FUT Moments highlighted.
These short challenges promise to bring a fresh tinge of excitement to FUT, with EA aiming to create a smoother, quicker reward-based mode.
What are FUT Moments?
FUT Moments is the newest way to earn rewards in Ultimate Team.
In FUT Moments, you’ll earn a new currency type, FUT Stars, which can be exchanged for Items and Packs in the Moments Star Gallery.
FUT Moments aim to deliver a new mode that offers a number of unique challenges, provide a shorter match experience and offer a natural skill progression
How FUT Moments Work
You will start each Moment by selecting a Story.
Each Story will be based on Seasonal Themes, FUT Campaigns, or real events from football’s past or present.
Each Story is made up of Chapters, themed groups of play that contain the Moments themselves.
You’ll always start with at least one Chapter unlocked in a Story while others may be locked, requiring you to collect a specific amount of FUT Stars from the unlocked Chapters in that Story to be able to unlock it and continue.
Moments are the individual scenarios you will be playing.
Moments have one to three Challenges that you are required to perform to complete the Moment and earn the associated FUT Stars.
Every moment has a starting point in game, such as a free kick, throw-in, or in the middle of an attacking or defending scenario.
Moments have at least one Reward Level, with some having up to a maximum of three, which will offer one to three FUT Stars respectively.
You can start at the lowest Reward Level and work your way up, earning a FUT Star each Reward Level you complete, or you can try your hand at the highest Reward Level first to try to earn all unearned FUT Stars for that Moment in one go.
Different Reward Levels can change elements such as the Squad Requirements, time to complete, or CPU AI Difficulty as you increase/decrease the Reward Level.
You have to complete all Challenges within the completion time or you’ll have to try again.
You can replay an unlocked Moment at any time, however, you can only earn the associated FUT Stars once from any Reward Level.
Completing all Moments and all Reward Levels in a Chapter will provide you with bonus FUT Stars.
If you didn’t complete a Moment the first time, don’t worry. You can quickly reset the Moment at any time and get right back to trying to complete the Challenge.
FUT Stars
Progressing in FUT Moments earns you FUT Stars, a new currency that can be exchanged in the Moments Star Galley for Rewards.
FUT Stars do not expire and you will be able to use them across Seasons in FUT 23.
There are two ways to earn FUT Stars:
- Completing Moments - You can earn the FUT Stars for a Reward Level only once, but you are free to continue to replay a completed Moment if it is still available.
- Completing all Moments and their associated Reward Levels within a Chapter will earn the Group Reward, a bonus number of FUT Stars.
The FUT Star Gallery will host a number of rewards available year-round, as well as some that are only available for a limited time.
Some Moments may require that you use specific players, like Kylian Mbappé to participate in a Moment.
From time to time, these players will be offered as Loans in the FUT Star Gallery for zero FUT Stars to help you meet the Squad Requirements
FUT Moments will be updated regularly throughout FIFA 23, with new Stories and Challenges, along with new content to unlock in the FUT Star Gallery.
