EA Sports FC 24 is due to release later this year and EA’s new Football video game will continue the trend of kicking things off with its first promo ‘Ones To Watch’.
While some cards in Ultimate Team, such as FUT Heroes and FUT Icons, will stick around for the duration of the year; other special cards are only available for a limited time.
This promo, in particular, revolves around the transfer market and the exciting new signings teams have made.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Ultimate Team promo ‘Ones To Watch’.
Release Date
EA Sports FC 24’s Ones To Watch releases a week after the full launch of the game.
So Ones To Watch will start on the 6th of October 2023 and last for two weeks.
Team 1 is released on the 6th of October, whereas Team 2 is released on the 13th of October.
What Are Ones To Watch Cards?
Ones To Watch cards are dynamic cards, based on recently transferred players, which will upgrade depending on whether they get an In-Form card in the Team of the Week.
The upgraded In-Form card they receive in the TOTW will be reflected in the Ones To Watch card – meaning these cards receive multiple upgrades and be very valuable.
If the player’s position changes for their In-Form card, this will affect their Ones To Watch card.
They are also subject to upgrades if they have consistent performances in the first half of the year and receive an upgrade to their base card in the Ratings Refresh, which occurs in 2024.
Ones To Watch Predictions And Tracker
In total, there were 20 players selected to get a ‘Ones To Watch’ card last year, so we’re expecting a similar number this year.
Here are some of the confirmed transfers and players we expect to appear in this promo.
We will update and adjust this as we go.
