EA Sports is set to launch the first Party Bag SBC of FC 26 this Wednesday, and leaks have confirmed that the pack will include players from both Ratings Reload and Cornerstones promos. This combined lineup makes it the most valuable and exciting Party Bag of the season so far.
The SBC, officially called the Campaign Mix Player Pack, is expected to cost between 80,000 and 100,000 coins, requiring squads rated around 84 and 85. What makes this release stand out is the incredible range of players available, from legends like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to breakout stars such as Nico Williams, Lauren James, and Désiré Doué, now playing for Paris Saint-Germain.
According to trusted community source FifaTradingRomania, both promos will be featured, meaning you could pack anyone from Messi of Inter Miami to Federico Valverde of Real Madrid or Heung Min Son, who now plays for LAFC in Major League Soccer.
Below is the full list of the most valuable players included in the Party Bag SBC, sorted by their current market value and updated clubs for 2025.

Why this Party Bag SBC is already one of FC 26’s best
By combining two of the year’s strongest promos, EA has created one of the most appealing SBCs to date. The presence of players like Messi, Valverde, and Wirtz guarantees a high pack ceiling, while options like Doué and Olise ensure most pulls will still hold strong in-game value.
The SBC also gives a reason for traders to prepare early. Prices for 84 to 87-rated fodder cards have already begun rising, and experts expect another spike on release day. With the wide range of usable cards available, even a mid-tier pull can be worthwhile.
The addition of Cornerstones players such as Ronaldo, Palmer, and Adeyemi offers great balance, with plenty of options for both meta squads and themed teams.
How to prepare for the FC 26 Party Bag SBC
If you plan to complete the Party Bag SBC, now is the time to stock up on fodder. Cards between 84 and 86 ratings are the sweet spot for completing this challenge cheaply. Investing before Wednesday will save a lot of coins once the market reacts to the SBC’s release.
For traders, look for panic sales on Cornerstones cards just before the drop. When players anticipate more supply, they often undercut market prices, creating perfect buy-low opportunities.
What to expect when the Party Bag SBC goes live
The upcoming Party Bag SBC will have one of the highest average pack values of any early-season SBC in FC 26. While the odds of packing Messi or Valverde remain low, the range of strong options means few players will walk away disappointed.
The inclusion of live Ultimate Scream cards is not expected in this edition, but fans believe EA may add them to a second Party Bag SBC later in the season. If this trend continues, the Campaign Mix concept could become a key part of FC 26’s weekly content cycle.
