FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards start date

FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards started on Friday, December 23, 2022, as confirmed by a loading screen found in Ultimate Team. The Winter Wildcard Swaps event also began on December 19, giving fans twice as much content this time around.

There is currently no word on how long the promo will last, but since the Swaps tokens will still be available well into the new year, we’d expect two teams of players this time around.

What is FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards?

In FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards, fans can look forward to another team of special cards with heavily juiced stats, that will likely become meta players immediately upon release.

If the devs stick to the same concept as FIFA 22, these new cards will also see players move into entirely new positions to open up new squad-building opportunities. For example, last year Neymar moved from LW to CAM and became one of the game’s most overpowered cards.

There will also be plenty of festive SBCs and objectives to complete for pack rewards, so there’s plenty to get stuck into.

Will there be a FUTMAS in FIFA 23?

FIFA players have been desperate to see the popular FUTMAS event make a return but, sadly, there will be no FUTMAS in FIFA 23.

Traditionally, FUTMAS is a month-long celebration full of packs and SBCs. However, since the World Cup has taken over FIFA 23 Ultimate Team during December, fans will have to settle for the shorter Winter Wildcards promo instead.
