EA Sports FC 26 Ultimate Team Leak Hints at Tournament Return and FUT Champs Changes
As the countdown to EA Sports FC 26 continues, a new leak has revealed possible exciting updates for FC 26 Coins Ultimate Team fans. The information, shared by well-known Twitter leaker FGZNews, points to the return of the popular Tournament mode as well as a revamp of FUT Champs designed to make competitive play more accessible.
While EA Sports has yet to officially reveal any details about FC 26, these leaks often provide an early glimpse into what players can expect. FGZNews has a decent track record in the EA community, though the usual caution applies: this information is unofficial and could change before launch.
According to FGZ, Ultimate Team Tournaments are making a comeback. This mode was a favorite in older FIFA games, such as FIFA 17, but has been missing in recent titles. The new iteration in FC 26 is rumored to offer two weekly tournaments, each with different squad-building rules to challenge players in new ways.
Players will likely have to adapt to specific restrictions, such as fielding a full team of silver-rated players or a squad composed entirely of players from a single country, like England. These unique requirements will encourage players to think creatively and use players they might otherwise overlook.
Rewards for these tournaments are said to include special player cards, packs, and Coins, providing strong incentives to participate. While it’s unclear if these tournaments will follow the knockout style of previous versions, they’re expected to evoke a similar competitive spirit.
In addition to tournaments, the leak suggests that FUT Champs is getting a makeover. Currently, FUT Champs is a highly competitive weekend event that many casual players find difficult to access due to its demanding schedule and intensity. The leak claims EA will introduce a two-tier system, allowing casual players to compete in a less intense version of FIFA 26 Coins Champs with scaled-down rewards.
