FC 26 FUTTIES Team 4 players and release countdown
EA Sports is preparing to launch the fourth and final team of its FUTTIES promotion in FC 26, with early leaks starting to circulate on social media ahead of the reveal. The event caps off the game's FUTTIES campaign, which spotlights specially boosted cards, before the game gradually shifts focus towards the endgame content that precedes FC 27.
Team 4 will feature special cards for current footballers alongside Icons and Heroes, with Ronaldo among the names leaked so far, though the full squad has yet to be confirmed. Most cards will be obtainable through packs, with additional objectives and squad-building challenges (SBCs) expected. As with previous FUTTIES releases, non-Icon and non-Hero items will be fully customisable, with objectives available to add a fifth "playstyle+" trait. The team is set to go live on Friday, 14 August, at 6pm BST, marking the end of FUTTIES Team 3, whose cards will be removed from packs at that point.

FC 26 is EA Sports’ annual football game, and Ultimate Team is its mode where players build squads using cards of footballers. FUTTIES is a late-cycle promotion that gives selected players stronger special cards; Icons represent notable former players, while Heroes are cards based on memorable football careers.
These cards can be found in packs or earned through in-game objectives and squad-building challenges, which ask players to submit a team to receive a reward. Some FUTTIES cards can be customised with different roles and traits, affecting how they perform in matches. The promotion marks a late stage in the game’s content cycle, before attention turns towards the next edition.
