While FIFA 21 hasn't hit the shelves yet, you can start collecting players and packs for the new season of Ultimate Team
FIFA 21.
Launching globally on October 9th, that doesn't mean you can't start preparing for your FIFA 21 Ultimate Team right now. Millions of gamers are still playing FIFA 20 and some of them are even using the current version of the game to start building their FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) for the new season.
There are several ways to start collecting players and packages before the FIFA 21 game and web app launch, including matches in FIFA 20, pre-ordering a new game, and even signing up for the EA Sports newsletter.
How to get FIFA 21 players from FIFA 20
To ensure that gamers continue to play FIFA 20 until the release of FIFA 21, EA Sports has introduced an advertising campaign called Pre-Season. Through this campaign, gamers are earning rewards for both FIFA 20 and FIFA 21, meaning they can start building their FIFA 21 Ultimate Team right now. Free Packs, Packs and Players are available through Team Building Missions (SBCs) and FUT Challenges.
Challenges require the user to complete certain requirements, such as scoring a goal against Team of the Season (TOTSSF) players or helping players of a certain nationality. Completing objectives allows you to receive packages in FIFA 20, as well as additional packages or rewards that will be added to your account when you launch FIFA 21.
How to get FIFA 21 packs when pre-ordering
Each version of FIFA has several different editions that offer additional in-game content if you pre-order the game. The Ultimate Edition is the most expensive version of FIFA 21 and provides users with a special non-tradable Ones to Watch player if they pre-order before August 14th.
The Champions Edition and Ultimate Edition also provide free Rare Gold Packs every week for the first few weeks and months after the game launches to help you upgrade your Ultimate Team. Additionally, pre-ordering the Champions Edition or Ultimate Edition will allow you to play the game three days ahead of the official launch in October.
How to Subscribe to EA to Get Free FIFA 21 Players
Another way to get free FIFA 21 Ultimate Team rewards is to subscribe to the EA Sports newsletter. By subscribing to the mailing list through the EA Sports website, you will receive a free player with a credit icon when FIFA 21 hits the market in October.
You will receive one of three ICON players on loan for three games, allowing you to test these legendary players for three matches. Available players are Eric Cantona, Ronaldo or Zinedine Zidane. You can only get one of these players, so don't try to subscribe to the mailing list more than once!
