FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Season 1 Rewards

FIFA 21 Ultimate Team rewards for Season 1 have been confirmed, and regular players are in for some nice rewards if they can grind all the way through. Here, we lay out everything up for grabs, including Storyline player cards, badges, boosts & more.

Early access for FIFA 21 has already started ahead of the game’s official release on October 9, and EA Sports has released FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Season 1 – along with all of the rewards that come with it.

Even though it’s a new year and a new game, it seems as though Ultimate Team will once again be broken up into seasons. Each completed game or challenge will reward you XP points, which advance your level and unlock all of the various rewards.

As in seasons past, there are a total of 30 different tiers waiting to be unlocked by players, offering things like Badges, Boosts, Themes, and the ever-popular Storyline player cards as you advance.

Rewards for FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Season 1.

Stats for the Storyline players available in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Season 1.

All three of the Storyline players, Lacazette, Sabitzer, and Bernat, are rated at an 85 overall, up two points from their usual rating of 83. With most of us starting fresh squads in FIFA 21, it really comes down to what you’re team needs at the moment, or whichever of the players you prefer to grab.

In total, you’ll need 100,000 XP points to advance through every single tier and unlock all the rewards. The good news is that we have until November 20 to improve our season rank, plenty of time to score some goals in FUT and complete as many challenges as we can.
