FIFA 17 FUT Black Friday

Estimated Dates
25 November (Friday) to 27 November 2016 (Sunday)
FIFA 17 Promotions, Events and Offers Guide for FIFA 17 Ultimate Team

FIFA Black Friday, which takes place in December on the day following Thanksgiving in the United States, is the day regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season. In this day, the prices are lower making it the one with more sales in the year. As usual, Electronic Arts do not miss this chance to boost their sales and releases a variety of offers.

During FIFA 17 Black Friday, Electronic Arts releases something new every hour for 24 hours. These offers include multiple happy hours and lightning rounds in the FUT store, increased chances to pull specific cards and new featured single player and online FIFA tournaments. But the offers doesn’t stop here. FIFA 17 Black Friday will run for three days and will end just at Cyber Monday is starting.

 
 

FIFA 17 FUT Cyber Monday

Estimated Dates
28 November (Monday)
FIFA 17 Promotions, Events and Offers Guide for FIFA 17 Ultimate Team

FIFA Cyber Monday takes place every year in December, on the Monday after the Black Friday, and it is one of the biggest online shopping days of the year. Just like it happens with the FIFA Black Friday, Electronic Arts do not miss this chance to boost their sales and releases in this day a variety of offers and promotions for the FIFA Ultimate Team community. In fact, the FIFA Cyber Monday is a less popular extension of the Black Friday.

In this day, there is a new offer every hour. This includes promotional packs with the inclusion of lightning rounds available in limited quantities (first come, first served), increased chances of pulling specific players from packs and many new single player featured FUT tournaments. Cyber Monday is very similar to the Black Friday offers and lightning rounds, but has typically been over one day.

As a result of a huge number of pack openings, the cards prices in the transfer market are very low in this day but not as low as in the Black Friday.

17 Days of FIFA is announced as the biggest FIFA 17 social giveaway and that’s what exactly it is: during the promotion, Electronic Arts offers special daily gifts to their social network followers.

The FIFA Community Week was first introduced by Electronic Arts in FIFA 15. In that time, it was known as ‘FIFA Community Weekend’ but a year later it was extended for a whole week. This yearly promotion takes place in April or May and was created to celebrate the growing FIFA community. It is also a good event to renew interest within the FUT community at a typically quiet time, especially in the years without World Cup or Euro Championship.

During this week, fans can expect exciting offers every day. One of these offers is a free FUT Draft Token Pack which gives to players the chance to play FUT Draft without having to pay. The community is also rewarded with daily happy hours which includes the popular 100k Rare Players Pack. New daily tournaments, online and single player mode, which also features increasing prize rewards for every tournament victory, are usually one of the offers available in this week. Free packs and Ultimate Team IF players cards giveaways are eventually other offers that can be released during the FIFA Community Week.
