HUT Wildcard

HUT is about to get WILD! The all-new Wildcard Mode implements unique rulesets per competition cycle — like different salary cap systems, having a specific number of players from a particular team or nation, and more — keeping players on their toes and ready to adapt with each and every cycle.

HUT XP Progression System

All XP earned in Squad Battles, Rivals, and Wild Card are combined into a single progression path, meaning that every HUT mode rewards you the same, no matter where you play. Plus, you'll now receive those rewards instantly when you reach new levels.
