How long does it take for a Showdown card to get upgraded?

Showdown card upgrades will be determined only once the selected match has been completed and the result has been finalised.

Once the match is played, the Showdown items can take up to a few days to update in-game.

The time that EA takes to upgrade the Showdown items can vary, but we expect it to be pretty snappy during the Showdown Series campaign.

More on Showdown upgrades

Every player that is selected for a Showdown card will receive an initial boost on their special item, which means even if you expect the player's team to come up short in the match, the SBC can still be worth completing.

Depending on the result of the specific fixture, Showdown cards can receive a +2 OVR, +1 OVR or no upgrade at all.

The players selected for Showdown cards do not need to be selected or have played in the particular match to receive an upgrade.
