As FC 25’s release date approaches, the excitement is building, and the leaks are pouring in. With just a few days to go before launch, player leaks, season pass details, and Evolutions are making waves within the community. This article will dive into the latest leaks and news surrounding the first FC 25 promo, the season pass structure, and how Evolutions will impact the game.
The First Promo: Leaks and Player News
The first FC 25 promo is set to kick off with a bang, and leaks are already circulating about the players who will feature. One of the standout leaked players is Adama Traoré, who will be part of the World Tour player set. Known for his blistering speed and physical presence, Traoré’s card features 95 pace and a four-star skill move/four-star weak foot combination, making him a formidable asset for any starter squad.
Adama Traoré can also play in multiple positions, including right-mid, right-wing, and striker, offering versatility in attack. This is a great card for the first few weeks of FC 25, particularly for those who manage to get their hands on him early, either through the season pass or by grinding through the promo.
The big question remains: is this a free or paid season pass reward? While early speculation suggests that Traoré will be part of the paid premium pass, there’s still a chance that the free tier might offer this card as a reward after significant grinding.
Season Pass Structure and Details
The season pass in FC 25 brings an interesting dynamic to the game, offering both free and premium tiers of rewards. According to leaks and official announcements, every level of the pass will feature a free reward, but those with the premium version will unlock additional rewards, including players, packs, coin boosts, and customization options.
Here are some key points about the season pass:
- Premium Rewards: The premium pass will offer faster access to rewards, but there will be no exclusive content that is only available to paying players. In other words, everything can eventually be earned, but premium users get a head start.
- FC Points and Coins: Players can purchase the premium pass with FC Points or coins. However, there’s still no confirmation about whether players will be able to earn enough points or coins back through rewards to fund the next season pass.
- No Individual Levels: Unlike some other games with season passes, you cannot buy individual levels in FC 25. It’s an all-or-nothing deal for the full pass.
While the addition of a paid season pass in a full-priced game has been met with criticism, some players have pointed out that buying the season pass could actually be more cost-effective than gambling with FC Points in packs. With the season pass, at least you know what you’re paying for.
Evolutions in FC 25: A Game-Changer
Another exciting feature in FC 25 is the Evolution system, which allows players to evolve certain cards by meeting specific requirements. The leaked Evolution, titled Intro to Stat Limits, showcases how players can upgrade cards under an 82 overall rating. Here’s what we know about this Evolution:
- Maximum Boosts: Players can receive stat boosts up to +3 shooting, +2 dribbling, and +1 skill move, with caps on these stats at 86 shooting, 87 dribbling, and four-star skills.
- Eligible Players: Any player under the overall rating of 82 can fit into this Evolution, even if they already exceed some of the specific stat requirements (like shooting or dribbling). For example, players like Marcus Rashford or Jérémie Boga might be eligible, but only up to certain stat limits.
- Potential Impact: Evolutions could significantly alter the dynamics of the game, allowing more players to become meta-competitive with boosts. A well-evolved Inaki Williams or Renato Sanches, for example, could become a game-changer in your squad.
This Evolution system offers more flexibility in squad building, but it also introduces limitations on how far certain players can be boosted. The balance between broad usability and meaningful upgrades is something we’ll see more of once the game launches and Evolutions are put to the test.
Future Promos and Leaks
The leaks for FC 25 continue to roll in, with the next promo, Total Rush, expected to arrive shortly after launch. One of the leaked players for this promo is Luis Muriel, though his stats are yet to be confirmed. This early information hints that EA is sticking with its tradition of keeping players and content under wraps only for leaks to spill them ahead of time.
Interestingly, EA seems content with the leaks, as they appear to generate significant buzz and excitement ahead of major updates. The company may even see leaks as a way to sustain hype leading up to big releases.
Team of the Week Evolutions
A promising feature for FC 25 is the Team of the Week (TOTW) Evolution cards. This feature allows for incremental upgrades to TOTW players, including potential boosts to skill moves and weak foot ratings. If done right, this could turn regular TOTW cards into truly valuable assets rather than just minor stat boosts.
While the exact details of the TOTW Evolutions are still unfolding, this could represent a major shift in how TOTW cards are perceived by players, especially if these cards can remain relevant for more than just one week.
