The icon swaps are an extremely popular feature in FIFA year after year. Icon Swaps are also waiting for us in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team. We tell you everything you need to know about the swaps, which rewards are waiting for you and where you can get the tokens!
Icon swaps means sweating – but at the same time free legends that enrich every team . With the feature you can play different modes and choose one (or more) of the offered icons . But when will the icon swaps come in FIFA 22? And how does it actually work with the tokens? Here’s all the info!
Icon Swaps 3 is Live! Everything about the rewards & tokens
Shortly before the start of the Team of the – Season in FIFA 22 and the current warmup series, new packs were found in the game code that strongly indicated icon swaps . As of Monday April 25th, Icon Swaps 3 has actually gone live, bringing some hefty rewards to FUT.
The most important thing that every honorable FIFA player must now observe: the golden goal rule. What is that? Don’t worry, we’ll tell you now. Well… everyone wants to earn the tokens as quickly as possible and not have to gamble for hours when you would have actually already won a game.
Therefore, it has become established in the community that the player who scores 1:0 also wins the match . The opponent leaves the game directly, then everything goes much faster. If you also have some dignity and want to help the other players to get quick tokens, then you should follow this rule as well! Good karma too, I promise.
Gullit, Matthew and Carlos in Icon Swaps 3
The list of icons is really impressive this time! Gullit is one of the strongest legends in the game, Roberto Carlos is simply a legend and Kenny Dalglish is more popular in FUT than almost any other player!
- 1 Token – 25x 82+ Rare Players Pack
- 2 Token – 25x 83+ Rare Players Pack
- 3 Token – 25x 84+ Rare Players Pack
- 5 Token – 20x 85+ Rare Players Pack
- 5 Token – PIM Edwin Van Der Sar
- 6 Token – 91+ ANG/MIT Icon Moments Pack
- 7 Token – PIM Kenny Dalglish
- 8 Token – 93+ Icon Moments Pack
- 8 Token – PIM Roberto Carlos
- 9 Token – PIM George Best
- 11 Token – 91+ Icon Moments Player Pick (1 aus 3)
- 11 Token – PIM Samuel Eto’o
- 13 Token – 94+ Icon Moments Pack
- 14 tokens – PIM Lothar Matthäus

- 16 Token – Icon Moments Player Pick (1 aus 5)
- 17 Tokens – 93+ ATK/MIT Icon Moments Player Pick (1 of 3)

If none of the icons just listed have a place on your team (or you already own them all, duh), then you should still earn the tokens. You can then exchange these for some of the packs that really pack a punch – this will certainly increase your chance of drawing a TOTS player , after all, from 0.1% to 0.2%.
Icon Swaps 3 – How to get the tokens
To make collecting the tokens a little easier for you, we have created a small overview of the tasks you have to do for each token . Keep in mind that only the first half of the tokens have been released at this time – as soon as the rest appear, we will of course update the table.

Rooney, Casillas, Desailly and Del Piero as Icon Swaps 1
At first we were told we would have to wait until 2022, but luckily the first icon swaps came in December 2021. We’ll show you a list of icons and packs that you can grind and collect tokens for:
- 2 Token – 25 x 81+ Player Pack
- 3 Token – 25 x 82+ Player Pack
- 5 Token – 25 x 83+ Player Pack
- 6 Token – Mid Iker Casillas
- 7 Token – Mid Rio Ferdinand
- 8 Token – Base or Mid ICON Pack
- 9 Token – Prime Marc Overmars
- 10 Token – Mid ICON Pack
- 11 Token – Mid Marcel Desailly
- 12 Token – Guard Alessandro Del Piero
- 13 Token – 89+ Mid ICON Pack
- 14 Token – Base or Mid ICON Player Pick
- 14 Token – Prime Gianluca Zambrotta
- 16 Token – Mid or Prime ICON Pack
- 17 Token – Base, Mid, or Prime ICON Player Pick
- 17 Token – Mid Wayne Rooney
Casillas, Ferdinand, Overmars, Desailly, Del Piero, Zambrotta, and Rooney… aren’t the absolute craziest meta cards, but what can you expect from the first icon swaps in FIFA 22. If you look at the list of all icons, it looks okay. In addition to the individual legends, we also get different packs and player picks.
When will icon swaps come to Ultimate Team?
Do we already have a date when the icon swaps will be integrated into FIFA 22? YES A! The first icon swaps started on December 15th, 2021.
Also in FIFA 21, EA gave us the feature at the beginning of December… this year many leaks spoke of a later release. The site FIFPlay wrongly assumed that we won’t get Icon Swaps 1 until February 18, 2022. That would have been surprisingly late. On February 21, 2022, the second icon swaps came – on March 21, the next set of tokens was released.
Was sind Icon Swaps in Ultimate Team?
With the Icon Swaps, you have to do various tasks that are displayed to you in the menu. Most of the time it’s about winning a certain number of games with a league team in Squad Battles or Division Rivals. If you managed that with a team, you get a swap/ token (in the form of a white player card). From a certain number of tokens, you can go on a shopping spree. The icons and their prices are then displayed with the SBCs – an icon pack is usually included.
Are icon swaps worth it?
In any case. At least if they come into play in time. Here you can play different modes like Squad Battles and Division Rivals, take home cool rewards and get awesome icons – for free! That’s what’s so nice about the feature, pulling through the motivation and getting a certain legend/pack without having to spend coins.
As soon as the icon swaps are in the game, we will of course inform you immediately. And we already give you the recommendation: Sweat it up when it’s time!
FIFA 22 – FUTs
What could be cooler than just relaxed gaming and doing some sofa sports on the side? In FIFA 22, the player is on the move fast, but without getting sore muscles. With the Ultimate Team Event cards, the collecting instinct is now also satisfied. However, the FUT Heroes keep creeping into my mind, so here are the best Ultimate Team Event cards that are definitely worth adding to your collection.
Heroes cards selected by EA for top qualities
Admittedly, the FUT heroes will cost quite a bit of coin, but it turns out that EA has once again brought some top-class players into the game when it comes to selection. As a collector and hunter, it’s an added attraction for FIFA gamers to now include their own favorite heroes in the portfolio and benefit from their individual skills. Both in the game and in team building, the FUTs will revolutionize the game once again.
EA SPORTS FC: FIFA GAME SERIES TO BE CONTINUED UNDER NEW NAME
Of course, the soccer simulation game series will not be discontinued completely. After FIFA 23, EA will relaunch the game under the name EA Sports FC and market it independently. Old FIFA hares should now become quite an ear, after all, the EA Sports Football Club used to be a part of the actual game for years. A lot of playing was rewarded, points could be collected and items, boosts or balls for the individual game modes could be unlocked.
In this context, there could also be a complete revolution of the classic game. There is a heated discussion in the FIFA community about whether the game, which is expected to be released in the fall of 2023, will be free-to-play. This option is said to be on the table for the game makers from EA, because: It seems that EA earns most of its money with the purchases of FIFA Points in the game mode Ultimate Team and not with the sale of the game itself.
