Evolution bug – Incisive Pass+ downgraded, Evolution, incorrect PlayStyle count

Hello,

I am reporting a critical Evolution bug in EA SPORTS FC 26 Ultimate Team that permanently soft-locks a player card.

During the Evolution process, Incisive Pass+ (PlayStyle+) is incorrectly downgraded to the normal Incisive Pass PlayStyle after completing the required matches. This is not a visual issue — the downgrade is permanent and happens server-side.

Because of this bug:

The Incisive Pass+ is not applied correctly

The game incorrectly treats the PlayStyle slot as already used

As a result, the card becomes soft-locked

I am completely unable to add the next Evolution PlayStyle (Technical), despite meeting all requirements

Additional critical evidence:

On screenshot #3, the game displays “PlayStyles: 9” while only 8 PlayStyles are actually visible on the player card

This clearly indicates a server/UI desynchronization, where a non-existent or downgraded PlayStyle is still being counted by the system

Because of this incorrect PlayStyle count, further Evolutions are blocked even though a valid slot should be available

For clarity, I am attaching the following screenshots:

Player card before starting the Evolution (FC 26)

Evolution stage where Technical PlayStyle should be awarded

Screenshot showing the bugged PlayStyles (Incisive Pass+ downgraded and incorrect PlayStyle count)

FUTBIN screenshot confirming that the player is eligible and that Technical PlayStyle should be possible to add in FC 26

Key points:

The Evolution preview explicitly shows Incisive Pass+ as the Playstyle+

According to FUTBIN and FC 26 Evolution rules, the player is fully eligible for the next PlayStyle

After completion, the card only has Incisive Pass (normal) instead of Incisive Pass+

This permanently blocks further Evolution progress and causes loss of time-limited / paid Evolution content

This issue directly impacts progression, card value, and Evolution functionality in EA SPORTS FC 26.
It is a server-side Evolution logic error, not a UI display bug.

Please escalate this issue and either:

Manually restore the missing Incisive Pass+ and add technical playstyle , or

Reset / correct the Evolution state so the card can progress as intended

Thank you for your assistance.
