What to Expect from EA FC 25 Winter Wildcards
The Winter Wildcards promo, formerly known as FUTMAS and later Freeze, is one of the most celebrated events in FC 25 Ultimate Team. This year’s edition continues to deliver upgraded special cards, exciting challenges, and plenty of rewards to keep players engaged during the festive season.
Here are the highlights and featured opportunities to earn rewards:
Special Player Cards
A range of upgraded Wildcards will be added to packs, giving players fresh options to strengthen their squads.

Daily SBCs & Login Rewards
A fan-favorite tradition returns with daily Squad Building Challenges (SBC), offering rewards like unique player items, packs, and bonus content. Daily login rewards will also provide quick, easy bonuses simply by submitting a single player into an SBC.

Crafting Upgrade SBC
According to community leaks, a Crafting Upgrade SBC will debut during the promo. By completing a series of smaller SBCs, players can earn valuable packs, objectives rewards, and additional bonuses, which is a perfect grind for dedicated FC 25 Ultimate Team fans.

Advent Calendar Content
In previous years, daily SBCs resembling an “Advent Calendar” dropped special player cards and rewards each day throughout the event. While not officially confirmed yet, a similar format could make its return, providing daily opportunities to claim upgraded cards.

Community's Speculation Around NumeroFUT Cards

Adding to the excitement, new game files have revealed a brand-new card type called “NumeroFUT.” While EA has yet to confirm their purpose, speculation is already swirling within the community:
Some believe NumeroFUT could tie into Marvel-themed crossovers, given the glowing gems on the card resemble the Infinity Stones.
Others think the cards may be connected to exclusive objectives or challenges rather than appearing in packs.
For now, details remain unclear, but EA is expected to share more as the promo’s launch date approaches.

While the full duration and content of the event are not entirely clear, one thing is certain: the Winter Wildcards promo brings a mix of exciting content and rewarding challenges, featuring special player cards, daily SBCs, and unique objectives. With plenty of opportunities to strengthen your squad and earn valuable rewards, this event is perfect for keeping players engaged during the holiday season.
