There is also a big inclusion for a man who avoided all the leaks.
Latest - Team 1 goes LIVE
FUT Birthday Team 1 has entered packs in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.
Many of the cards had already been leaked, however, it was a great surprise to see Cristiano Ronaldo headlining the squad.
As well as the 11 new cards entering packs, a Henrikh Mkhitaryan SBC, Tammy Abraham objectives set and objectives to gain a FUT Birthday Swaps Token were all released.
Release Date
EA's loading screen confirmed it, and the release went ahead on Friday, 4 March at the usual time of 1pm ET / 6pm GMT as expected.
We would usually expect FUT Birthday to arrive slightly later in the month, so EA may have something big planned to follow up with.
FUT Birthday
FUT Birthday is a returning promo, which celebrates the anniversary of FIFA Ultimate Team.
Each year the event sees fan favourite players given enormous boosts, with cards released into packs, new SBCs, and objectives.
The cards released usually have boosts to skill moves and weak foot as well as the regular attributes, so it offers plenty of new and exciting options.
The event usually runs for two weeks, so expect to see a Team 1 and Team 2 release on each Friday of the promo.
Swaps
It looks like EA has some additional content in store for us this release, with another Token Swaps system leaked too.
Once again, it was FUT Sheriff who brought us the news, and we really hope it proves correct!
We are used to Token Swaps from Icon Swaps, and this season EA has brought them into other promos, with Winter Wildcards and Future Stars also using the system to give additional rewards.
With high-value packs likely to be redeemable, keep an eye out in objectives and SBCs for the tokens.
Leaks
FUT Sheriff has come up trumps once again and has leaked the entire FUT Birthday Team 1 squad via Twitter... and we are in for an absolute treat.
Luis Suarez will headline Team 1 with a ridiculous 93 OVR card, alongside fellow La Liga star Toni Kroos who has been handed a GIANT pace boost and enters 'Gullit gang' in FUT.
Premier League players Jack Grealish, Allan and Martin Odegaard all feature in Team 1 with brilliant special cards.
Serie A players Lucas Torreira and Giovanni Di Lorenzo have been given top-tier cards, with Tammy Abraham receiving an awesome objectives card.
