Fantasy FUT
FIFA 23 Ultimate Team™
Fantasy football comes to Ultimate Team
Power your Ultimate Team with real-world performances during Fantasy FUT. Each special Player Item is eligible for upgrades based on both team and individual achievements on the pitch during select matches in their domestic run-in. Every detail counts—from starts and clean sheets to goals and assists—boosting their rating each time they hit specific statistical milestones.
There will be two teams of Fantasy FUT Player Items, including the debut of Fantasy FUT Heroes that will be able to upgrade based on a former club’s results in real-world matches. All upgrades will be based on the six domestic league matches after both teams have been released, starting on March 17th.

FAQ
Which games are the upgrades based on?

Fantasy FUT Player Items will upgrade weekly based on any upgrades earned after each matchday.

Individual:
- If the player makes three appearances, they will receive a +1 OVR Upgrade

Do players have to play in order to earn upgrades for their Fantasy FUT Player Items?
There are both team-based and individual-based upgrades in Fantasy FUT. A Player Item is eligible for the “Win ” and “Avoid Defeat” upgrades regardless of whether or not they feature in the six matches.
They are only eligible, however, for the “Appearances” and “Goals/Assists/Clean Sheet” upgrades if they achieve those scenarios individually in their club’s next six games.
Can Fantasy FUT players earn the position-specific upgrade without earning the other potential upgrades?
Yes, each of the upgrade scenarios can be achieved independently.
Position-specific upgrades depend on the Primary Launch position of the Fantasy FUT item only.
What counts as a clean sheet?
A clean sheet is awarded to a defender or goalkeeper for not conceding a goal whilst on the pitch and playing at least 60 minutes. If a player is substituted off when a goal is conceded they will still fulfill the clean sheet upgrade scenario, provided that they were substituted off before the goal was scored and they played at least 60 minutes during the match.
What happens if an attacker/midfielder scores one and assists one?
The “two goals or assists” upgrade is an aggregate tally, meaning a Player Item qualifies for the +1 OVR upgrade if they score two, assist two, or get one of each.
What traits will be given to Player Items whose teams don’t lose any of their six domestic league matches?
The three select traits will depend on the player’s position and existing traits.
