EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass – confirmed release date and Premium Pass rewards
EA Sports has confirmed the new set of rewards coming in the EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass, with incredible Shapeshifters players, Evolutions, and packs all available to earn.
It was confirmed pre-launch that EA Sports would be releasing a paid Season Pass in EA FC 25 Ultimate Team, and we saw this finally go live during Season 7: Team of the Season, where for 500k Coins or 1,000 FC Points, players could earn boosted Ultimate Team rewards, including a 96-rated Icon Franck Ribery and other 95-rated player items. Reasonably priced, the Season 7 Premium Pass was a hit with the Ultimate Team community, and EA has now confirmed a Premium Pass will be released once again for Season 8: Shapeshifters.
As part of the latest set of patch notes for EA FC 25's Season Finale update, EA revealed the EA FC 25 Season 8 Objective rewards for the Premium Pass, and it looks incredible. There will also be a free Standard Season Pass released as always, but these rewards will be revealed once Season 8 begins in Ultimate Team.
Here is the confirmed start date and predicted end date for the EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass rewards, as well as all the confirmed rewards.
EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass release date
The EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass, both the standard and the paid Premium Pass, will go live in EA FC 25 Ultimate Team on Thursday, June 5 at 12am PDT / 3am EDT / 8am BST, putting an end to Season 7, which lasted six weeks. The Premium Pass only has 35 levels instead of 40, meaning we could be getting a shorter season than usual, so we expect that Season 8 will conclude in five weeks rather than six, ending on Thursday, July 10 at 12am PDT / 3am EDT / 8am BST.
EA FC 25 Season 8 Season Pass rewards
Here's a complete list of the EA FC 25 Season 8: Shapeshifters rewards for the Premium Pass. If it's the same as Season 7, the Premium Pass will cost players either 500k Coins or 1,000 FC Points, and you can redeem the Premium Pass whenever you like, no matter how much SP you've already gained.
The majority of rewards you earn from the Premium Pass will also be tradable, so you can list whatever you earn on the transfer market. The rewards for the Standard Season Pass have not been revealed yet, but we will include them when we know them!

With EA starting to reveal all about EA FC 26, including deep dives into EA FC 26 gameplay, EA FC 26 Clubs and EA FC 26 Career Mode, attention usually strays away from EA FC 25, but Futties has managed to stay relevant, with the EA FC 25 Futties Team 4 squad featuring more 99-rated players and a 'Best Of' Batch 3 release. The EA FC 25 Futties Team 4 squad is now available in Ultimate Team packs until Friday, August 7 at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT/ 6pm BST, when Futties Team 5, the final Futies squad, replaces it.

Battlefield 6 'doesn't need Nicki Minaj' says dev in knock against Call Of Duty
Fans of Battlefield 6 are worried the new game will pull a Call Of Duty when it comes to crossover skins, but the developer insists it will remain 'grounded'. According to current rumours EA is expecting to attract up to 100 million players to Battlefield 6, when it's released in October. That's orders of magnitude more than any previous entry in the series and more akin to the numbers enjoyed by the likes of Call Of Duty and Fortnite. Some influence from those games can already be seen in Battlefield 6, as the sequel will feature a separate battle royale mode. That isn't necessarily a bad idea but it has many fans worried that Battlefield may pick up some of Call Of Duty's other bad habits, especially when it comes to paid-for skins. Call Of Duty and Fortnite are known, for better and worse, for mountains of cosmetic skins based on movie stars, cartoon characters, real-life celebrities, and much more. Call Of Duty fans are getting increasingly fed up with the trend and it seems Battlefield 6 will be purposefully avoiding it. Speaking with DBLTAP during a recent London event, Battlefield 6 design director Shashank Uchil (who's been working on the series since 2018's Battlefield 5) expressed a disinterest in any sort of wacky crossovers for the game, insisting the game will remain 'grounded.' 'It has to be grounded. That is what Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 was – it was all soldiers, on the ground,' said Uchil. 'I don't think it needs Nicki Minaj. Let's keep it real, keep it grounded.' That second bit is a very pointed reference to how Activision added rapper Nicki Minaj as a playable skin in 2022's Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Not even as a character, but as herself and not in any sort of military wear. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. Battlefield Studios head Vince Zampella (who famously helped create Call Of Duty) was also quizzed by Eurogamer about the possibility of crossover skins. 'We want to be true to Battlefield, we want this fantasy to feel like you'd expect of Battlefield, so that's what we've been focused on,' he answered. While it can feel like Call Of Duty fans are always complaining about something with each new game, the series' use of crossover skins has been a point of contention for many years now. Things started off with celebrity cameos like Lewis Hamilton and various footballers, but as the years went on the skins became more and more fantastical. It was one thing when Call Of Duty was adding action heroes like Rambo and John McClane, who at least somewhat fit with the series' aesthetic, but now you have the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and cartoon characters like Beavis and Butthead running around shooting one another in Call Of Duty's otherwise realistic looking maps. There's no shortage of Call Of Duty fans hating on these sort of skins online, with the Beavis and Butthead ones prompting a Reddit thread labelled 'COD is cooked' with more than 8,000 upvotes. 'I was fine with the future tech, the anime, I reluctantly accepted the animal and mascot characters but… f***ing giant glowy cartoon character? Really?' reads the top comment. 'I remember coming around a corner and seeing Nicki Minaj knifing some dude and just turned the game off. It was the last time I played COD,' reads another. COD is Cooked [COD] byu/Purehate28 inCallOfDuty A separate thread from nine months ago innocently asked fans what their favourite Call Of Duty collab has been and while there are plenty legitimate answers, a lot of comments are people answering with none of them. The top comment is just a blunt 'No', with the second most upvoted being, 'None, I hate annoying skins, let alone crossovers.' As a result, a rumour from April, courtesy of frequent Call Of Duty insider GhostOfHope, suggests that despite the crossovers 'printing money,' Activision plans to rein them in because of fan complaints. By comparison, Battlefield fans have been elated at just how ordinary the skins for Battlefield 6 look so far. When the first line-up of skins leaked earlier this week, fans on Reddit praised them for looking like… generic soldiers. One comment simply reads, 'I love them, I love them, I love them,' while another says, 'Finally no weird operators, just plain anonymous soldiers.' That said, there remain concerns that EA will opt to sell weird crossover skins later down the line. After all, the reason Call Of Duty and Fortnite keep doing them is that despite the complaints plenty of people are willing to pay good money for them. More Trending 'The moment I see Nicki Minaj running through the map holding an M16, I'm out,' says one fan, with someone predicting it'll happen in just six months. Another fan writes, 'Modern military skins is totally okay, but that's a big no if we see some other characters for instance from Squid Game, Beavis & Butthead, Diablo 3, etc., etc. with anime guns and/or some other funky/pop/arcade things.' It's worth noting that Battlefield has dabbled in crossovers before, with Battlefield 2042 receiving skins based on Dead Space and Mass Effect. However, those are EA owned franchises and at least vaguely fit Battlefield's near future aesthetic. Even so, while the Battlefield 6 team might be disinterested in copying Call Of Duty's example when it comes to collabs, the higher-ups may have different ideas, especially if they want to market the game to a wider audience beyond the established fanbase.

EA FC 26 Career Mode new features – gameplay overhaul, manager market and deeper simulation
The latest EA FC 26 Career Mode changes are in, with updates being made to gameplay, scouting, and how developing players works. From a new style of gameplay to a new live game mode, there are a bunch of big updates and changes coming to EA FC 26 Career Mode Career Mode is one of the most popular ways to play EA Sports FC, but EA Sports has come under fire from the Career Mode community over the last few years for only getting minor updates, with an online career mode being the biggest request from the community. Well, after speaking with the EA FC 26 developers and getting hands-on with EA FC 26 at the EA HQ in Vancouver, I can confirm an online career mode won't be coming to EA FC 26, but there are a host of other updates being made. As well as Career Mode, big updates have been confirmed for gameplay and Clubs in EA FC 26, while we should learn about new Ultimate Team features very soon. Every new feature for EA FC 26 Career Mode These are 26 changes coming to Career Mode in EA FC 26. Authentic gameplay Firstly, and the biggest change of all, is that the gameplay is being completely overhauled for EA FC 26 Career Mode, and I'm sure this is an update that will be seen as fantastic for the Career Mode Community. In EA FC 26, gameplay is being split into two – competitive gameplay and authentic gameplay. Authentic gameplay applies to career mode, meaning the game will be a slower-paced, more true-to-life version of football. This helps bring more realism to the game, something which is needed in Career Mode. Manager Live A new Manager Live mode is coming to the game, where players can take on challenges from the real world. From winning the league to making the average age of your squad 23 or younger, there's a host of different challenges available in Manager Live. Manager Live reflects the changing world of football across the season, with challenges either short-term or long-term, with some taking up to three seasons to complete. EA is aiming to release 150 challenges weekly for players to complete in Manager Live, with rewards on offer for completing these challenges. Some of the rewards include retro kits, which you can use for your respective team in Manager Career. Manager Live will see a Road to Glory mode introduced in Manager Career. Road to glory is one of the most popular ways to play Career Mode, so you can now pick up rewards for playing how you usually would. Big win! Manager Market A manager market is also coming to EA FC 26. Using the manager market, you can see every manager's job security, what objectives they need to achieve, and their tactics. Doing this also helps if you're looking for a job, as you can see what jobs may be available soon, the job expectations, and the likelihood that you will be hired. Managers can be fired, retire, or leave clubs in Manager Career, meaning we can expect to see a lot more managerial changes in EA FC 26. Caretaker managers are being introduced as well, so if a manager leaves for whatever reason, a caretaker will become manager, and if they do well, they can stay at the club as the permanent manager. Each manager will have a profile that includes a rating and tactical vision. For example, if Diego Simeone left Atletico Madrid, the club will look for a new manager of a similar rating and tactical vision. If no managers with the same vision are available, the club will hire someone else, and potentially change its tactics and club philosophy for good. You can edit the names and details of managers you aren't controlling. There won't be a free agents section for managers in EA FC 26 due to licensing issues, so you may need to try and find Jurgen Klopp's doppelganger and rename him if you want to add him to the game. Unexpected events Another new feature called Unexpected Events is coming to EA FC 26, and this may be my favourite new addition. There are set to be about 40 Unexpected Events at launch, with these throwing challenges the manager's way out of the blue. Some of the examples of Unexpected Events include injuries on international duty, a chairman wanting to get involved in tactics and transfers, and a Tottenham-esque Lasagne-gate, where a chunk of the squad gets food poisoning. It's about how you react and overcome these challenges. Icons and Heroes Icons and Heroes are coming to Manager Career Mode. They were introduced in EA FC 25 for Player Career Mode, but now, as rewards from Manager Live challenges, you can earn Icons and Heroes as playable players for your Manager Career. They are delivered across the season, with up to 200 icons and heroes available across the 10 FC Seasons. When you unlock these Icons and Heroes, they will be signed with their prime rating and at their prime age. Deeper stats and smarter AI You can now view deeper stats in EA FC 26, so for the first time, we can view all of the player and team stats from other leagues. This includes top goalscorers, assists, clean sheets and even average rating. The new deeper stats feature will change how scouting works. Select up to five leagues for deeper simulation, and then view these players' detailed stats to help with scouting. You can even scout directly from the deeper stats page. AI transfers will be smarter in EA FC 26. Say, for example, Liverpool want to sign a right-back in the transfer market. Well, they won't go and sign five of them in one window now, like they sometimes did in EA FC 25. Archetypes Archetypes are coming to FC 26 Player Career Mode, replacing the current player progression system. Archetypes define how your player grows in-game, with this also replacing the skill tree in Clubs. There are 13 archetypes available from launch. These are: Magician Finisher Target Recyclier Maestro Creator Spark Progressor Boss Engine Marauder Shot Stopper Sweeper Keeper How you start a Player Career Mode is changing. Personality types remain, but when you start the game you will choose your origin story, physical attributes, club, archetype and position. Some new origin stories are also being introduced, including Rising Star and Hand of God (which is for goalkeepers). And everything else Be a Goalkeeper has been overhauled, meaning there are more controls and commands available to use if you are a goalkeeper in Player Career Mode. A few more menu shortcuts have been added to improve the quality of life for players in-game, while player roles can now be changed in Manager Career Mode without influencing the practical vision. Youth tournaments can now be played in different stadiums in different sizes, adding a bit of variety and more importance to bigger games, and after being added in EA FC 25, more Live Start Points will be added in EA FC 26. Lastly, Online Career Mode will not be coming in FC 26. We were told by EA Sports Line Producer Andreas Wilsdorf that it's something that's always being brainstormed in the background, but EA didn't consider it for EA FC 26.
