Winter Wildcards Swaps Release Date
The Winter Wildcards promo was released on Friday, 23 December, at the usual time of 2pm ET / 6pm GMT, however, the Swaps System came earlier than that!
The first Winter Wildcards Swaps and the corresponding SBCs were released on Monday, 19 December at 2pm ET / 6pm GMT, letting us get stuck into the new content early.
The event will be running for two weeks and we will see Tokens released intermittently throughout the campaign.
The SBCs to redeem the Tokens against will stay in-game until Friday, 13 January, giving you a week from when the promo is expected to finish to cash in for your rewards.
What are Winter Wildcards Swaps?
Winter Wildcards Swaps were first seen in FUT 22 and are returning to the promo in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team, creating more content to complete and rewards to gain!
Much like Icons Swaps (and the many other Swaps systems we are now seeing), players can earn Swaps Tokens as rewards, which you can then redeem against new Squad Building Challenges - that require only those tokens to complete - in return for top prizes.
25 Tokens will be on offer through Objectives and SBCs, with bonus ones coming in Packs via the FUT Store.
The more Swaps Tokens needed to be traded in to complete the SBC, the greater the reward.
