What’s New in FC 24 Ultimate Team?
FC 24 Ultimate Team features several new features. Let’s find out more about them.
Ultimate Team Evolutions
For the first time ever, you can improve players in your club via Ultimate Team Evolutions — a new way to build your squad around the players you love. Choose players that fit the Evolutions criteria and complete a set of objectives to improve their individual skills, PlayStyles, and overall ratings to keep them competitive throughout the year. You’ll even be able to level-up how their Player Items look with new designs and animated backgrounds so you can flex on your opponent with your homegrown Evolutions players and all the milestones they’ve reached for your Club.
Mixed Teams
Women’s football is coming to Ultimate Team — the biggest addition of top tier players ever added in a single year, introducing six new leagues and a world of new squad building opportunities as you craft your Ultimate XI. You will find them in packs, transfer market, objectives, rewards, SBCs and Draft. There are also new ICONs and Heroes, pioneers of the women’s game, to add to your Club and build your team around.
PlayStyles
PlayStyles introduce a brand new dynamic to Ultimate Team that goes beyond overall ratings, allowing you to build your squad based on your knowledge of the players—and how they actually play on the pitch. PlayStyles+ take that to the next level, giving players abilities on the pitch that few others have. PlayStyles+ are visible right on the Player Item so it’s easy to see what they’re known for and how they’ll stand out.
Objectives Menu
Objective Groups have been reorganized across multiple tabs, making it simpler for players to find, play, and manage their progress.
The previous presentation could sometimes come across as a bit dull. To enhance the experience, certain Objective Groups will now showcase themed backgrounds. This change allows the dynamic energy and unique campaign personality to truly shine and resonate with the players.
Claim All Button
In order to facilitate a swifter return to the action, a novel “Claim All” button has been introduced. Pressing Claim All will redeem all rewards from completed Objectives within a single Objective Group and send the rewards to your Club.
Item Design
The game’s items now feature a wider design, including a revamped Player Item face view. This update offers more space for player portraits and background art, moves crests to the item’s bottom, introduces League crests, streamlines attributes into a single line, and adds a “first owner” indicator. In the case of special/in-form item shells, notable enhancements have been introduced, with expanded embellishments and artwork extending beyond the shells. Furthermore, select item shells showcase captivating new customized animations that infuse vitality into the visuals.
Position Modifier Removal
For greater convenience in squad building, Position Modifier consumables have been eliminated. Player Items can now be freely moved within the Squad, contributing to Chemistry in both Primary and Alternative Positions. This change also applies to SBCs and Ultimate Team Draft, enhancing flexibility and ease in squad creation.
Club Search
Loan Players are now hidden during squad building within SBCs for a more streamlined experience.
Icons Change
From launch, Icons will have a single Base version, receiving additional Campaign versions throughout the year. Each Icon in the Squad now adds Chemistry to every represented League, with two Icons ensuring at least one Chemistry Point per League, in addition to Nation Chemistry.
Item Improvements
New Kits or Tifos can be manually equipped from the New Items Screen, taking the next available slot. Duplicate untradeable Player Items can now be swapped in bulk for their tradeable versions. Additionally, finding favorite Lengthy players is easier with Acceleration Types in the Player Bio.
New Menus
The navigation within Ultimate Team has been streamlined for quicker access. Utilizing the Quick Switcher, players can effortlessly transition between Squad, Transfer Market, Objectives, favorite game modes, and other sections in Ultimate Team.
Squad Battles Match Length
In FC 24 Squad Battles, halves have been trimmed from 6 to 4 minutes, optimizing your gameplay experience.
