As the Ultimate Team season progresses, EAFC 25 players can look forward to an exciting new promotion coming this Friday: Trailblazers. Leaks from trusted sources on Twitter have hinted that the Trailblazers promo will focus on the top-performing footballers who have started the 2024/25 season on fire. This article dives into everything we know so far about the Trailblazers promo, which is expected to bring unique cards with significant upgrades and updated PlayStyle+ features.
What is the EAFC 25 Trailblazers Promo?
The Trailblazers promo in EAFC 25 is designed to highlight footballers who have been outstanding in the early stages of the 2024/25 season. These players will receive special cards that reflect their real-life form, featuring boosted stats and new or updated PlayStyle+ abilities. The promo will showcase players from various leagues, rewarding their strong performances on the pitch by enhancing their in-game abilities in Ultimate Team.
Much like last year’s edition in EAFC 24, this promo is expected to bring minor stat increases but offer significant gameplay improvements through PlayStyle+ boosts, completely altering how these cards perform in-game.
When Will Trailblazers Launch in EAFC 25?
Although EA has not officially confirmed the release of the Trailblazers promo, leaks from reliable FIFA leakers like WetDesignFUT and Donk Trading suggest that Trailblazers will drop on Friday, October 25, 2024.
This timeline makes sense, given that the second wave of Total Rush was released on October 18, leaving the following Friday wide open for a major content drop. Last year, the Trailblazers promo landed around mid-October, so it aligns perfectly with the usual FIFA calendar of events.
Trailblazers: Players and Upgrades
In the Trailblazers promo, the standout players from the start of the 2024/25 season will receive In-Form Upgrades (IF-Upgrades). These upgrades will make their in-game stats more reflective of their real-world performances. However, the major draw of Trailblazers isn’t just the stat boosts—it’s the introduction or enhancement of PlayStyle+ abilities, which can transform a card’s performance dramatically.
For instance, in last year’s Trailblazers promo in EAFC 24, Jude Bellingham was given a Technical PlayStyle+ boost, significantly improving his dribbling and finesse shot capabilities. This promo is expected to follow a similar format, with each upgraded player receiving a tailored PlayStyle+ that matches their in-game and real-life strengths.
What Content Will Trailblazers Bring?
As with previous promos, Trailblazers will likely come with a variety of new content for players to enjoy beyond the upgraded cards. Here’s what to expect during the event:
- Special Cards in Packs: The upgraded Trailblazers cards will be available in packs, adding fresh and exciting options for Ultimate Team squads.
- Squad Building Challenges (SBCs): Expect themed SBCs to drop throughout the promo, allowing players to unlock exclusive cards or other rewards by completing challenges.
- Objectives: There will likely be a set of themed objectives where players can earn XP, packs, or even unique players.
- Evolutions: This could involve upgrading a specific Trailblazers player or completing tasks to enhance PlayStyle+ features further.
- Rush Playlists: Special Trailblazers-themed Rush events are expected, where players can compete in 5v5 modes to earn additional rewards.
The promo is designed to give a boost to players who have already impressed in the early part of the season, rewarding their form with cards that will be a must-have for any competitive squad.
