Ultimate Team is still the mode when it comes to FIFA. This will not change in FIFA 22. However, there are some news about FUT Division Rivals. We show you the most important announcements from EA.

Ultimate Team in FIFA 22: 20 games in the Weekend League
The best news for all FUT players. The Weekend League has only 20 games. This offers us all a bit of relief when it comes to weekend recreation.
But less games also means more pressure on you. Let’s see how this will look like. Oh, and the heaviest change is coming now: The Weekend League doesn’t exist in FIFA 22 anymore!
Shocked? Relax, because EA sells us the Weekend League only under the new name: FUT Champions Finals. How the whole thing works you can read below in the article.
FUT Rivals News – With – Season s & Elite Division
FUT Rivals is again an own thing in FIFA 22. All players will start in Division 10 and of course want to move up immediately. Placement matches have been removed. Division Rivals is now a – Season -long competition tied to the entire FUT – Season . A – Season goes on for about 6 weeks. We already know the mode with – Season basis from FIFA 18.

Divisions now consist of levels and ranks. A win will move you up a level – a winning streak will allow you to move up faster. The new checkpoints save your progress and keep you from being reset.
The checkpoints also show you exactly what requirements you need to complete to advance. For the pros among you, there’s the Elite Division.
Here everybody wants to go. The ultimate division in FIFA 22. The Elite Division is waiting for you after Division 1. There the best FUT players of the world will compete and here you will see again a skill rating system, already known from FIFA 21.
All players in the Elite Division will be ranked with the best 200 players in the global leaderboard, based on their skill rating. If you reach the elite, you will stay there until the end of a current – Season .
FUT Champions Finals replace the Weekend League
Okay, so how does the qualification for the new FUT Champions Finals work? First things first. First you have to qualify for the FUT Play-offs. Then come the FUT Champions Finals.
How do you qualify for FUT Play-offs?
In the future, the week will be divided into qualification, Champions Play-offs and then FUT Champion Finals. So you have to collect qualifying points, which you will get in Division Rivals.
Once you have collected enough points, you will automatically qualify for the play-offs and your hunt for participation in the finals will continue.
How do you qualify for FUT Champions Finals?
If you collect enough points in the play-offs, you will receive a token that allows you to participate in the FUT Champions Finals. These take place on the weekend, just like the Weekend League.
With the token you have the choice when you take part in the finals.
FIFA 22 FUT Rewards: Division Rewards & Milestones
Rewards await you at every turn in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team mode. The best rewards in the game await you in FUT 22 again in the Weekend League – sorry – in the Finals. If you perform well here, your Ultimate Team will quickly reach a 90 rating.
At the end of the new – Season s, you will also get rewards. Depending on where you finished a division, these rewards will be better or worse. The grind is worth it.

There are also milestones. Every game you complete brings you one step forward. So if you don’t see any land for three or four games in a row, relax a little bit! After all, these games also give you important points for the milestones, which then reward you with rewards.
FIFA 22 FUT Rewards: Rewards directly at the weekend
And another news in FIFA 22 FUT! And a really nice one. In FIFA 22 you will get your rewards directly after the last match. No waiting, no uncertainty for which TOTW you play, but simply the rewards directly after! The FIFA community liked that a lot. I mean, the waiting was always annoying.
What does this mean for the transfer market?
For the transfer market it also has a strong impact. Since everyone gets their rewards on the weekend, prices will no longer drop sharply on Thursdays and rise sharply on Fridays. Means the days where the players rise and fall will change.
Was eh somehow always burdensome. Thursday market crash, Fridays costs even an Ulreich (nothing against Ulle) felt 5k and then on Sunday you get the blatant cards for nen apple and n egg thrown behind. Well, I talk too much. I’m hyped for the Weekend Leagues and the following Rewards!
FIFA 22 Squad Battles: Better rewards in prospect?
Also in the upcoming FIFA you can play Squad Battles again. The can opener to many playable katrten, such as the Icon Swaps. The system won’t change much. You’ll play against the computer, get your rewards on Mondays, and probably this mode will be helpful for a Battle Pass task or two.
Better rewards? In fact, there have already been initial leaks that the rewards will be bumped up a bit. Quite rightly so. I mean, you play for hours, win every game 12:0 and on Mondays you get 3 Gold Packs as a reward. Wow. Thanks for nothing.
How this will change is not yet known. But keep an eye on this article, we will report new information as soon as we have it.
FIFA 22 Ultimate Team Trailer
If this was too much for you to read, we also have the official FUT 22 trailer.
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.
