EA FC 25 is heating up with exciting updates, including the anticipated first Party Bag SBC and the Hero Flashback Keane release. Here’s a deep dive into recent SBC drops, trading strategies, and a full breakdown of market trends for EA FC 25 players who want to maximize coins through savvy investments and quick flips. This article includes all the essential updates from the last 24 hours and offers tips for navigating the evolving FC 25 market.
Hero Flashback Keane SBC: What to Expect
The Hero Flashback Keane SBC has stirred up the market, leading to price shifts across player items, particularly Strikers. EA’s “On This Day” theme ties to historical moments, hinting that we may see flashbacks based on players’ peak performances. Though the exact significance of the date remains unclear, the SBC provides options for players looking for a different stats focus, such as boosted Pace or adjusted Shooting. For now, it’s wise to avoid buying Strikers until after Keane’s release.
Player and Upgrade SBCs: What’s New in EA FC 25
The latest round of SBCs offers interesting choices, though some, like the Showdown SBC between Caso and Yat, may seem underwhelming to high-end players. The Showdown series has introduced similarly statted players, with Caso focusing on Dribbling and Passing and Yat excelling slightly in Dribbling. If either wins, they’ll get a two-point stat boost, but the upgrades may not dramatically impact gameplay.
Another notable addition is the Double 78+ Upgrade SBC. Since the mid-week demand for league SBC cards often decreases due to players opting for the upgrade SBCs, it’s possible that Silver cards won’t experience the usual mid-week drop-off. Keep an eye on these dynamics to make timely investments and maximize coin returns.
Investment Tip: As EA keeps progressing with more valuable upgrade SBCs, consider holding onto non-duplicate fodder items since demand can spike with a new release.

Trading Tips: Market Trends & Investing in High-Rated Fodder
The current market trends point towards steady demand for high-rated fodder, with prices on 84, 85, and 87-rated players rising steadily. Here’s a breakdown of the market implications:
– 84-rated Fodder: Increased from 2.7k to 3.1k coins
– 85-rated Fodder: Jumped from 7k to 8.8k coins
– 87-rated Fodder: Rose from 15.5k to 17k coins
If EA releases the Icon SBC on Thursday, we might see additional price hikes. Meanwhile, keep an eye on players with unusual price trends due to **price range updates**; these are often rare items that can fetch high resale prices. A great sniping filter for these items is to target Gold Rare English cards, setting bids between 3.6k to 4k, with buy-now prices between 11k and 12k coins. This strategy lets you snipe rare cards like Lauren James and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Party Bag SBCs: Potential Market Impact and Speculations
Party Bag SBCs offer random, high-value player packs and can influence the market by temporarily increasing demand for certain card types. While some speculate this will be an SBC, others think it might feature in the Season Pass. Historically, EA releases Party Bag SBCs later in the season, but recent leaks suggest it could arrive as soon as this week.
If released as an SBC, expect significant movement in mid-tier player prices. Alternatively, if included in the Season Pass, the impact will be less immediate. Either way, RTK (Road to Knockout) cards are valuable investment choices; past data shows these cards tend to rise if their teams are set to perform well in upcoming matches.
Hot Investment Target:
Ollie Watkins, whose next match is against a relatively weaker opponent, is a prime RTK investment option. Monitor his price on Wednesday to ensure you’re buying at a low point.

How do Party Bag SBCs affect the EA FC 25 market?
Party Bag SBCs typically increase demand for certain player items, especially mid-tier ones, as players complete SBCs for rewards. This demand can drive prices up temporarily.
Are there any investment strategies for the Party Bag SBC?
