A St Patrick's Day promo looks primed to drop in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team once again!

With an unusual end date specified for the current Fantasy FUT event, the green of the Irish could take over as a special mini-promo in FUT 23.

Check out everything you need to know about the St Patrick's Day promo in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team right here and stay on top of all the latest news and leaks.

FIFA 23 St Patrick's Day Promo

St Patrick's Day has shed most of its religious affiliations over the years and is now more generally seen around the globe as a celebration of Irish culture, with FIFA games including it in some way since FUT 13.

The way in which St Patrick's Day is recognised in Ultimate Team has varied over the years, initially with a special tournament, then with an updated green card design for selected players (but no boosts), and more recently with Irish players gaining boosted cards via SBCs and Objectives.

Last year there was only a consumable kit and a couple of Irish players released as Silver Stars, but in FUT 21 we had some great content with Republic of Ireland players coming as Milestone Objectives.

We'd love to see that again, and it also looks like there will be a promo squad released into packs due to the early end of the Fantasy FUT event.

St Patrick's Day Promo Release Date

Unusually, Fantasy FUT cards are stated to rotate out of packs on Wednesday, 15 March at 1pm ET / 6pm GMT, instead of on a Friday.

FUT Birthday is leaked to start on Friday, 17 March, which also happens to be St Partick's Day!

St Patrick's Day Promo COUNTDOWN

To get both celebrations in, it looks like EA will be releasing a special mini-event for St Patrick's Day on Wednesday, 15 March, with cards staying in packs for two days only.

We expect to see the weekly Silver Stars player involved in the promo, as well as some players included as Milestones Objectives and SBCs.
