EA has promised an unprecedented level of content for FUT Birthday, and it’s already delivering in a massive way. This year’s promo is packed with daily player SBCs, daily evolutions, and surprise every single FUT Birthday card will have five-star skill moves and a five-star weak foot. This is just the beginning, as we have plenty of leaks to break down, including the official Cristiano Ronaldo Flashback SBC card and the impact these new releases are having on the market.
Daily Login and Evolution Updates
The FUT Birthday Daily Login SBC has officially started, allowing players to complete 12 segments over 16 days. The main reward so far is Bryan Mbeumo, an 88-rated card with five-star skills and weak foot, making him a solid addition, especially with evolutions in mind.
EA has also released the King of Egypt 2 evolution, correcting their previous mistake of excluding right midfielders from the first version. However, this new EVO only grants a +1 weak foot upgrade, while the original King of Egypt gave +3. Regardless, this second iteration opens up opportunities for different cards, including Musa and Micon, who both look incredibly strong.
SBC Recap and Upcoming Content
Wednesday brought four new SBCs, though nothing groundbreaking:
- Fantasy Theate SBC (35,000 coins) – A solid Bundesliga CB option.
- 87+ Campaign Player Pick – Refreshed, offering a mix of special cards.
- Fantasy FC Trade-In SBC – Providing another chance at Fantasy FC cards.
- UCL Marquee Matchups – Back-to-back appearances for tradable pack rewards.
However, the biggest leak comes in the form of the Flashback Cristiano Ronaldo SBC, expected to drop Friday. This card is a tribute to his FIFA 22 FUT Birthday version, featuring Rapid+ and Finesse+ playstyles. The big question remains: Will he have five-star skills and five-star weak foot? If EA follows their pattern, the answer should be yes.
The rumored price of this Ronaldo SBC is around 2.5 million coins, sparking a surge in high-rated fodder prices, with 91-rated cards jumping to 48K coins almost instantly. Given the demand, fodder investments in 89s, 90s, and 91s could be a solid move, especially if EA requires multiple 90-rated squads for the SBC.
Market Trends and Investment Strategies
With FUT Birthday bringing daily SBCs, the market has been chaotic. Prices are crashing in some areas but rising in others, particularly for fodder cards. Informs are creeping up in price, and as more SBCs get leaked, they could become a valuable investment, particularly under 13K coins.
One sleeper investment could be Fantasy FUT cards, especially players like Burke, who is 22K but could rise to 30K+ with an upgrade. Holding onto these types of cards could prove lucrative as upgrades roll in.
Upcoming SBCs and Evolutions
Friday will be a massive day, featuring the release of Ronaldo alongside another duo player pick SBC: Kai Havertz. Players will get to choose between:
- A center-mid version with 92 defending and 90 passing.
- A striker version with 92 shooting and 90 passing.
Both cards will feature five-star skills and weak foot, adding another layer of excitement.
Other leaked SBCs include:
- Ethan Mbappé – A fun, five-star, five-star meme SBC.
- Michael Essien – A powerful FUT Birthday Icon CDM.
On the evolution side, EA is introducing a nostalgic cosmetic evolution, allowing players to apply older FUT Birthday card designs to their current cards, bringing back memories of FIFA 19 and beyond.
With daily SBCs, daily evolutions, and game-changing five-star upgrades, FUT Birthday is shaping up to be one of the most exciting promos in FIFA history. Investing in fodder, preparing for upcoming SBCs, and taking advantage of evolution mechanics could be the keys to getting the most out of this event.
Stay tuned for more updates, as Friday is set to be an absolute movie!
