FUT Captains
It turned out that TrustyFutTrader wasn't so trustworthy when they announced that FUT Captains would be the next promo in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team on Thursday, 10 February.
Despite the time frame being wrong, an upgrade to FUT Heroes cards looks to be coming, which could still involve the same concept that was leaked.
The thought was current FUT Heroes who captained their club or country will feature in the event, receiving "insane" upgrades.
It is now understood that the Ultimate Team promo will feature more than just the new variants of the FUT Heroes, with present-day captains also in line to feature.
This is a brand new promo in FUT, so we are excited to see what EA has in store for us.
As well as the squads being released into packs, expect to see SBCs and objective players coming too, to make the celebration as big as possible!
Reliable leaker FutSheriff has revealed that daily Icon Moments SBCs will be released as part of the FUT Captains campaign in Ultimate Team.
We can expect to see the memorable club and national team captains' Moments cards released as SBCs.
