FC 27 CHAMPIONS
FC 27 Champions is a competitive online mode in Ultimate Team, where players try to win as many matches as possible.
Champions Explained
Champions is the premier online mode in Ultimate Team, offering highly competitive head-to-head matches. Since 2025, it is divided into two brackets:
- Finals, for players ranked in Rivals division 6 or higher;
- Challengers, for those in division 7 or below.
Entry into Champions requires players to earn a set number of Champions Qualification Points through Rivals participation.
Performance in Champions is determined by victories. The more matches you win, the higher you progress through fifteen ranking tiers, each offering improved rewards. At the end of the event, participants receive prizes such as packs, player picks, coins, and exclusive items based on their final tier and overall performance.
