St. Patrick’s Day In FC 25: What Content Could EA Drop? ⇒ FUTFC

St. Patrick’s Day has been a special occasion in FIFA and FC Ultimate Team for years, with EA introducing unique content such as green-themed cards, special objectives, and the infamous pot of gold SBCs. While FUT Birthday is still dominating FC 25, today’s holiday could bring extra content, making it a key moment for players looking for rewards, packs, and even market investments.

Let’s take a look at what EA has done in past years, what leaks suggest for this year, and how the market might react.

St. Patrick’s Day Content In FIFA History

EA has celebrated St. Patrick’s Day in Ultimate Team multiple times, dating back to FIFA 15. Some of the most notable content over the years includes:

Green Player Items – In FIFA 15, EA gave out a special 79-rated green version of Robbie Keane for completing a tournament using a squad with 18 Irish players.
Pot Of Gold SBCs – In FIFA 17, EA introduced one of the biggest gambling SBCs ever. Players exchanged St. Patrick’s Day cards for a coin reward between 40,000 and 300,000 coins, making it a high-risk, high-reward challenge.
Special Pack And Objective Rewards – FC 24 featured a two-week-long St. Patrick’s Day objective, offering multiple Irish players along with an 84×10 pack, which was an amazing reward at the time.

Given EA’s history, there’s a strong chance that St. Patrick’s Day content in FC 25 will follow a similar pattern, bringing objectives and SBCs that could impact the market.

What To Expect In FC 25: Possible Objectives And SBCs

While EA has not officially announced any St. Patrick’s Day content for FC 25, leakssuggest that Matt Doherty and Paul McGrath will be part of the celebration. These two players are expected to arrive as objectives, meaning players could unlock them through gameplay challenges.

However, the biggest question is whether EA will include valuable pack rewards. Last year’s 84×10 pack was a huge success, and with FUT Birthday still live, a similar pack would be extremely valuable. If EA decides to bring back this type of objective, it could be one of the best free rewards in FC 25 so far.

Will EA Bring Back The Pot Of Gold SBC?

One of the most iconic St. Patrick’s Day SBCs in Ultimate Team history was the pot of gold SBC from FIFA 17. This SBC allowed players to exchange Irish players for a random coin payout, ranging from 40,000 to 300,000 coins.

Although EA has not brought this back in recent years, today’s St. Patrick’s Day celebration could be the perfect time for them to revive this fan-favorite SBC. If it does return, it could create some interesting market movements.

Market Impact: Should You Invest In Irish Players?

In past FIFA titles, St. Patrick’s Day content has led to massive price increases for Republic of Ireland players. Certain SBCs and objectives have required Irish players, making them highly valuable for a short period.

If you want to prepare for possible SBCs, check your club for:

Rare Gold Irish Players – These could increase in value if required for an SBC.
Irish Informs Or Special Cards – Players like Casey (TOTW), Robbie Keane (Heroes), and Roy Keane (Icons) could see a slight price rise.
Silver And Bronze Irish Players – In past years, even low-rated Irish cards have skyrocketed due to demand for squad-building challenges.

Right now, the market for Irish players is still calm, but if EA drops an SBC or objective requiring Irish players, expect a rapid price increase.

Looking Ahead: What Else Could Drop This Week?

Aside from St. Patrick’s Day content, there are still FUT Birthday SBCs, upgrade packs, and daily evolution challenges that could keep the menu grind exciting.

New Upgrade SBCs – EA might release an 81+ player pick or another fodder-related SBC to help with FUT Birthday crafting.
Guaranteed FUT Birthday SBC – If EA follows the pattern of past promos, we could see a guaranteed FUT Birthday pack soon.
More Free Evolutions – The last two evolution SBCs have been free, which is a good sign for more no-cost upgrades coming this week.

While FUT Birthday remains the main event in FC 25, St. Patrick’s Day has the potential to bring extra content, valuable packs, and even market shifts. If EA follows past trends, today could be a great opportunity to earn free rewards, complete objectives, and make smart investments.

Keep an eye on the transfer market for Irish players, and be ready for possible pot of gold-style SBCs or high-value objectives. Whether it’s free packs or special player items, St. Patrick’s Day could be a hidden gem in Ultimate Team this year.
