EA FC 25 is making waves with significant updates that are set to enhance the Ultimate Team experience.
With the game’s release on September 27, players can expect to see a host of new features that address long-standing community requests.
One of the most anticipated changes is the introduction of SBC Storage, a new system that allows players to store up to 100 untradeable duplicates.
This update is a game-changer for those who have experienced the frustration of packing the same high-rated player twice.
Now, instead of discarding valuable players, gamers can keep them for future use in Squad Building Challenges (SBCs).

Another standout feature in EA FC 25 is the overhaul of the tactics system.
The new FC IQ feature integrates real-world data to make in-game tactics more realistic than ever.
Each player now has multiple Player Roles, affecting how they perform on the pitch.
For example, Jude Bellingham can now switch between roles such as a Central Midfielder or an Attacking Midfielder, depending on your tactical needs.

I really like the look of player roles. Just hope we still get the tactics sliders & customisation from previous games to go with this new feature 🤞#careermode #EAFC #EAFC24 #eafc25 #fc25 pic.twitter.com/7PMydVW5ev

Additionally, EA FC 25 introduces Rush, a new 5v5 mode that lets players team up with friends to compete for rewards.
Rush Points earned in these matches can be used to improve your main Ultimate Team squad.
This mode is expected to become a fan favorite, offering a fresh alternative to the traditional 11v11 gameplay.

For those tired of the grind in Rivals, the introduction of draws and relegations is a welcome change.
Matches ending in a draw will now reward players with one point, making it easier to climb the Rivals ladder.
Relegations have also been added to Division 1 and Division 2, preventing players from being stuck in divisions that may be too challenging for them.

Lastly, EA FC 25 has completely removed contracts from Ultimate Team.
This change eliminates the need for players to constantly buy or manage contracts, streamlining the gameplay and allowing fans to focus on building their ultimate squad without any additional hassle.
