Introducing Drafts
Drafts are a new way in FC Mobile to obtain Player Items to help build your team. The setup is simple: Earn Vouchers from various parts of the game or get them using Gems and FC Points. Use them in Drafts to get Player Items. Voucher > Draft > Player > Use Player Alongside Drafts we have introduced Phase Exchanges. Convert qualifying Player Items for Phase Tokens, and exchange them for Player Picks and Draft Vouchers. Voucher > Draft > Player > Phase Exchange > Token > Player Exchanges In this Deep Dive, we will explain these new features and answer some of the most frequently asked questions. Let's dive right in. Where to Find Drafts Head over to the Draft menu from the right-hand tile on the FC Mobile homescreen. This is the hub to use Draft Vouchers to earn Player Items. Drafts are split into 3 Pools; A, B, and C. Each pool has their own OVR ranges with Pool A having the highest OVRs. Tap on the [MORE] button to see which Player Items are available in each pool. How to Earn Draft Vouchers Draft Vouchers can be earned in different parts of the game. You will typically find them earnable in Event Chapters, Star and Mini Passes, and Phase Exchanges. You can also use Gems and FC Points to get more Draft Vouchers in the Store and the Draft Menu. Guaranteed Pools You’re guaranteed to get a Player Item from Pool A or B at certain milestones. If you earn a Pool A or B Player Item from Drafts before reaching the milestone, then that progress will be reset. Each Pool tracks separately. Progress of the same Draft type within the same Event is carried over, but progress is not carried over between Events and different Voucher types. For example, during TOTY the progress carried over from the Attackers Draft to the Midfielders Draft as they share the same Draft type in the same Event. That progress was not carried over to the UTOTY Draft that uses a different Draft type, or to the Capped Legends Draft as it is a different Event. Types of Drafts Draft Vouchers are split into different types; Hot Deluxe Festive Kick Off Which type of Voucher the Draft uses is highlighted with a tag on the Event Draft button. Festive Drafts accept both Draft vouchers and Festive Draft Vouchers. Phase Exchanges Phase Tokens are a new currency in FC Mobile. They can be used in Exchanges to get Player Items from Player Picks from all Events in the current phase. For example, you can exchange Player Items earned from Drafts for Tokens, and when you have enough Tokens you can exchange them for a Player Pick! A Player Pick allows you to choose one Player Item from a random selection of 3 Player Items for 113-117 OVR Exchanges, and 5 Players for 108-112 OVR Exchanges. Each Exchange has their own Token cost, tap on the Exchanges to preview the Rewards and cost. There is also an Exchange to earn Draft Vouchers by exchanging Player Items. ccess the Phase Exchanges by tapping on the Exchange button on the homescreen. Phase Tokens can only be used during a phase, a phase lasts until the maximum OVR in FC Mobile is increased. Maximum OVR means the highest available Player Item OVR in game. As of this article's publication, it's 117 OVR. You will find a timer that displays when they expire in the Item Exchanges menu. You will not be able to use them after they have expired. Frequently Asked Questions Can I save up my Draft Vouchers in the current phase and use them in the next phase? Yes, Draft Vouchers can be used in multiple phases. Does my Draft Progress carry over in Events? Yes, as long as it uses the same Draft type within the same Event. Can I use generic Draft Vouchers in Festive Drafts? Yes, Festive Drafts accept both generic and Festive Draft Vouchers. How can I get a Player Pick? Exchanges that require Phase Tokens give a Player Pick. Player Picks are a feature where you can choose 1 Player Item from a random selection. Choose between 3 Player Items for 113-117 OVR Exchanges and between 5 Players for 108-112 OVR Exchanges. How do I get more Phase Tokens? Earn Phase Tokens by exchanging Player Items released in that phase in Item Exchanges. When does my guaranteed Pool A/B reset? Your progress resets when receiving a Player Item from a Draft from that Pool. This means that if you earn a Pool A Player Item with 20 Drafts left, your Pool A progress resets. That wraps up the Drafts Deep Dive. Let us know what you think about this feature by sharing your questions and feedback on social media.

Transfer Market Unlocks (FC 26): Game vs Web & Companion Quick guide to what unlocks where, and how to get there. TL;DR In-game (Ultimate Team): Finish specific Foundations Objectives, then wait for activation. During the wait you can list items, but you can’t search, bid, or buy Web & Companion Apps: Unlock is separate. Earn it by playing over multiple “active days.” Support can’t grant access or give a date. Important: Transfer Market access is a privilege, not a guarantee. Your account must remain in good standing and follow the FC Rules. In-Game (Graduated Access) Steps for new players Play Ultimate Team → Objectives. Complete New Beginnings (Foundations) to unlock Venturing Out (Foundations). Complete Venturing Out and claim your reward. Activation time PC: full access in 48 hours after completion. Other platforms: full access within 24 hours. While waiting: you can list items; you cannot search, bid, or Buy Now. Returning players in good standing may already have in-game access. Web & Companion Apps How unlock works Access is earned by play — advisors can’t grant it or predict timing. An active day = play 3 full Ultimate Team matches and log into the Web/Companion app the same UTC day (per UT account). Playing more than three matches in a day does not speed it up. Typical timing One UT account on the device, good standing Multiple UT accounts on the same device: Unlock timing may vary. Blocks & Bans If blocked, you’ll see a message in the app—check the email on your EA Account for details. If you think it’s a mistake, follow the appeal steps; secure your account if compromised. FC 25 Transfer Market bans don’t carry to FC 26, but franchise-level bans do. If your account has been banned, see this EA Help article for more details. Notes In-game unlock does not auto-unlock the Web/Companion apps. Requirements, limits (list, bid, buy), and timings may change as we tune the system. Transfer Market access remains conditional on your account staying in good standing and following the FC Rules.

Hello FC Mobile Community, We’ve been listening closely to your feedback, and the FC Mobile 26 Update brings gameplay improvements, new features, and fixes! Here’s what’s new: Gameplay Improvements Kickoff Rush: Defenders now react faster, reducing easy goals right after kickoff. Long balls still work in the right situations, but attributes, speed mismatches and positioning play a bigger part. Through Passes: Lofted passes are now more accurate when played by high-attribute passers, but harder to pull off at longer distances. Crossing & Headers: Cross accuracy depends more on attributes and defensive pressure, while headers better reward positioning, timing, and jumping ability. Referees: Small bumps are no longer auto-fouls. Referees are now better at letting the game flow without cheap free kicks. New Formations You asked for more tactical variety, so we’ve added 7 new formations including 4-2-1-3, 4-1-3-2, and 3-4-2-1. These are available in Head-to-Head, VS Attack, and Manager Mode. Match Presentation New menus, HUD, and scoreboards. Updated pre-match and post-match cutscenes. More camera angles for immersive gameplay. Revamped Matchmaking Lobby: See your captain and your opponent’s before kickoff, select kits to avoid clashes, and enjoy new walkout sequences. Read more in the Gameplay Deep Dive! Team Badge System A brand-new feature! Earn and equip Team Badges to boost attributes across your lineup. Fill badge slots to match your playstyle and earn rewards for completing collections. Read more in the Team Badge Deep Dive! Rank Up Improvements We’ve streamlined how Rank Ups work: New Rank Up Currency replaces old Rank Up Items. Training Levels are now separate from Rank Ups, so you can train players to Level 30 without needing Gold Rank. More flexibility to build your best squad for H2H, VS Attack, or Manager Mode. Star Heads & Celebrations Over 100 new Star Heads added, improving player likenesses. Endrick’s signature handshake celebration. Commentary & Audio New Turkish and Polish commentary teams. Updated sound effects and music for events and match flow. Other Updates Player Compare tool for side-by-side stat comparisons. Improved FCMTV streaming with fullscreen support and varied rewards. Notable Fixes and Improvements Manager Mode (MM) We’ve improved tactic management so that your saved tactic automatically resets when entering a Manager Mode match. We’ve improved halftime behaviour so that pitch logos now correctly switch sides in Manager Mode. We’ve improved match setup by ensuring the tactic name is displayed when starting a Manager Mode match. Locker Room We’ve improved 3D player rendering to prevent faces from turning dark when zooming in and out. We’ve improved Locker Room stability so that rapid changes are properly saved. We’ve improved Locker Room defaults so that multiple balls are no longer auto-selected when entering. We’ve improved avatar display so that Appearance and Number settings correctly show when the Away kit is selected as the Home kit. We’ve improved kit number assignment so the 3D avatar updates correctly when selecting an occupied number. We’ve improved Locker Room performance to reduce lag when scrolling through the ball list. Division Rivals (DR) We’ve improved rank adjustments so players are relegated by 5 ranks instead of 10 after season reset. We’ve improved profile accuracy so users see the correct DR current season division. VSA / H2H We’ve improved UI consistency by ensuring the Division Cup image displays correctly in H2H. Gameplay / UI We’ve improved crest placement so that both devices no longer display team crests in the same pitch position during friendly matches. We’ve improved HUD consistency by restoring the pitch score overlay during gameplay. We’ve improved match intro visuals so that team lineups are positioned correctly in Scouting Camp. Leagues We’ve improved history tracking so viewing your own history from another account shows accurate data. Trade Market We’ve improved text display so values over nine digits no longer overlap in the claim screen. Skill Games We’ve improved HUD visuals so the green mask no longer appears on the score counter in the 3-star skill game. This update is all about improving gameplay, giving you more tactical depth, and expanding the ways you can build your squad. We’ll continue listening to your feedback to make FC Mobile the best football experience on mobile.

Gameplay Deep Dive Hello FC Mobile Community and welcome to the FC Mobile 26 Update Gameplay Deep Dive! We’ve improved the gameplay experience by honing in on critical community feedback over the past months. Special thanks to those who participated in the Gameplay Beta and Limited Beta over the past months, the feedback you provided was incredibly valuable and helped bring this update to life! Overall, the FC Mobile 26 Gameplay Update focuses on improvements and balancing to: Kickoff Rush Through Passes Crossing Headers Referee Logic Let’s get into it! Passing You Asked: Kickoff Rush We know how frustrating the Kickoff Rush can be in Head to Head matches. We’ve reduced the effectiveness of Kickoff Rush by rebalancing the long lofted through passes. That being said, if there’s a mismatch of speed between a CB and ST, and the long ball is played by a highly-rated passer, there’s still the potential for Kickoff Rush to catch defenders flat footed. However, the distance of the pass and attributes of the passer will better reflect the outcome and success of these long through balls. We will continue to monitor community feedback on Kickoff Rush post update, and look to adjust accordingly, so keep the feedback coming! Balancing Lofted Through Passes We've fine-tuned the accuracy and travel time of Lofted Through Passes to better reflect Long Passing attributes. Now, defenders will have more time to react to long Lofted Through passes, ensuring more consistent and attribute-driven outcomes across all scenarios. The further and higher the pass, the greater the accuracy error, promoting strategic decision-making. Mid to Long distance Lofted Through passes now have a longer travel time and lower accuracy, based on your player’s Long Passing attribute Crossing and Headers In order to diversify attacking play and options to score goals, we reworked our Crossing and Header systems. These will create more variety in how you play, as crossing will feel more effective and headers will feel more responsive. Crosses Cross accuracy is now more heavily influenced by player attributes and the defensive pressure on the crosser. A defender who is tightly marking your player will significantly affect his accuracy. This means that getting into space and a good crossing position will positively impact the cross quality. We adjusted this to encourage smart decision-making in the final third and to reward the combination of player attributes and positioning, without re-introducing overpowered crossing. Headers We’ve improved header battles to prioritize physical attributes, offering more realistic outcomes and rewarding positioning. Further tuning has been applied to adjust header accuracy in contested scenarios, emphasizing the importance of positioning and timing. Header success and header accuracy are now more connected to the attributes of your player, the jump, his initial position, and the player contesting the aerial battle. Far more factors play into the outcome of a header, meaning they feel more rewarding. Referees Improved Referee System We've improved Referees’ decision-making, by investigating and improving situations, where incorrect fouls were called from light and non-tackle collisions, as well as making sure that attackers are more grounded during their shot attempts. Overall, Referees have been tuned to feature more realistic collision detection. Small bumps are no longer automatic fouls, and doing a skill move into defenders won't guarantee you a foul. Football is a physical game, and the latest gameplay improvements aim to highlight that, while keeping the Referee’s decision-making accurate and fair. We will continue to monitor community feedback on the Referees post update, so keep the feedback coming! Shooting Shooting has been adjusted to better reflect player attributes, positioning, weak foot, and swipe inputs: Shot accuracy is reduced when you shoot while turning away from goal, rewarding better skill and positioning. Basic shots from low attribute players are adjusted to better showcase their attributes. Gesture shots follow swipe input more accurately to improve responsiveness. We slightly reduced the amount of Shot Error on 3 and 4-star Weak Foot players. We increased the impact of the Curve attribute on Finesse Shot trajectory and outcomes. We addressed an issue where your player would use the incorrect foot when taking a finesse shot, leading to curling the ball away from the goal when going far post with a shot. Balancing VSA Chance Generation: Optimized chance generations towards the end of a VSA match after the first 10 chances to ensure better balance. Tuned Good Chances to better reflect their quality and be consistent (issue with some good chances being harder than they should in certain scenarios). Dribble Boost: Improved agility and responsiveness during jog dribble to help you navigate tight spaces with better control when using high-rated dribblers. Driven Ground Trap Error: Reduced for smoother build-up play. Ball Visibility Toggle: Toggle this button to change the ball to a simple white colour for accessibility and visibility. Defending Improvements: Defender deceleration and tackling are more closely tuned to defender attributes, making duels and defensive recoveries feel more authentic. Auto tackles have also been adjusted to give you more control on your defensive actions. Attribute-based Deceleration will ensure players will decelerate faster or slower based on their Acceleration attribute, in order to create a better balance against dribblers and better respect attribute impact in this duel. We improved an issue where your Defenders would launch unrequested auto tackles far away from the dribbler, putting you into a tough situation. Improved attribute impact in Jostling situations to ensure physically and strong players are more impactful. Goalkeepers: GK behavior has been tuned to feel less overpowered, creating more realistic and balanced save outcomes. CB Passing: Center backs now have weaker short passing, adding risk when using them in build-up play. New Formations Test out new tactical setups, including the highly requested 4-2-1-3 and 4-1-3-2, giving you more flexibility in Head to Head, VS Attack, and Manager Mode matches. Full list of new Formations: 4-2-1-3 4-1-3-2 3-1-4-2 3-4-2-1 4-4-1-1 4-3-2-1 5-4-1 Match Presentation New Look and Feel New Menus, scoreboards, HUD, buttons Updated pre-match and post-match cutscenes New Player Item animations for goal celebrations New pre-match camera angles Matchmaking Lobby See your captain and your opponent’s captain Select your home/away kit to avoid kit clashing Customized walkout before the match New Star Heads The newest update includes over 100 updated Star Heads. You can now see improved likeness for certain players in the game. Notable players with newly-updated Star Heads: Premier League Ethan Nwaneri Ayden Heaven Rodrigo Martins Gomes Hugo Ekitiké Romain Faivre Serie A Jay Idzes Stanislav Lobotka Johan Vásquez Niccolò Pisilli New Celebration Endrick’s Signature Handshake Along with all these updates, we’ve fixed a number of minor issues and improved general connectivity stability!

Players won’t be able to use any Career mode rewards in Showcase, and it won’t be possible to complete all Clubs mode objectives or any Career mode objectives. This may create a more challenging Season Track experience. Acquiring the Premium Pass without upgrading to EA SPORTS FC 26 will not grant you additional access to Clubs or Career Mode functionality. Upgrading from FC Showcase to EAS FC 26 If you choose to upgrade from FC 26 Showcase to EAS FC 26, your progress will carry as long as you continue to use the same EA Account on the same platform.Just follow the prompts in your main menu to upgrade, then restart the game.

Here are the steps to help you change your username in FC Mobile. Update your EAS FC Mobile username From the Home screen, tap on your current username to open your Player Profile. Select the pencil icon next to your username. In the popup, type your new username (avoid personal info). Tap Confirm — this consumes one Rename Card. It can take up to about 30 minutes before other players see your new name. Getting & Using Rename Cards You get one free Rename Card the first time you change your name. You can also buy more cards in the Store using FC Points. You can only purchase one new Rename Card every 30 days. Limitations If the “change username” option is greyed out, it usually means: • You’ve already used your free card and don’t own a paid one. • You changed your username too recently — there’s a 30-day waiting period. You cannot change your username without a Rename Card. The only alternative is creating a new account, but that means losing progress and past purchases unless linked.
