- Primary Subject: Overview of the leaked seasonal campaign roadmaps for EA Sports FC 27 Ultimate Team.
- Key Update: EA Sports is slowing down card progression in FC 27 by capping PlayStyles+, scaling back weekly filler content, and extending the runtime of major seasonal campaigns.
- Status: Officially detailed via the Ultimate Team Deep Dive alongside community leaks.
- Last Verified: August 3, 2026.
- Quick Answer: FC 27 will feature a much more gradual power curve by limiting players to a maximum of 3 PlayStyles+, while cutting roughly five weeks of minor promo squads to let headline campaigns like Future Stars and Team of the Year breathe.
EA has once again reiterated its plans to slow down the power curve in the recent FC 27 Ultimate Team deep dive.
A player item will have a maximum of 3 PlayStyles+ instead of the 5 we get during FUTTIES and some endgame campaigns.
Likewise, not every week will see a fresh squad release.
EA noted that they've reduced roughly five weeks' worth of promo squads across the annual content cycle.
This is to give "major campaigns and their featured items more opportunity to stand out."
The first four major promos for the game have already been leaked.
Season 1 to Season 4 Main Promos In FC 27 Have Been Leaked
Per leaked details, the main promos for the first four seasons of FC 27 are:
- Season 1: Future Stars
- Season 2: Ultimate Scream & Hall of Fut
- Season 3: Winter Wildcards
- Season 4: Team of the Year
This, of course, does not mean that each season will have only one promo squad.
Each season has always had one major campaign that offers the best cards with top players and attributes.
The weekly campaigns were reduced by five weeks. The high-profile promos like Team of the Year may run longer than usual to cover gaps, but we will continue to get more than one campaign per season.
Season rewards are also centered around whatever the main campaign during the period is.
So you can expect cards from the listed promo among the final rewards of free and premium tracks.
Surprisingly, the schedule for Future Stars is a bit too early.
It usually arrives after Team of the Year, but this time the young players will get the earliest spotlight.
FC 26 started with a couple of brand-new promos. It will likely be the same for FC 27 as well, with Future Stars being among the final few promos for Season 1.
The October schedule for Ultimate Scream, December for Winter Wildcards, and January for Team of the Year also aligns with the usual pattern followed by EA over the years.
That's everything about the leaked campaigns and slower power curve for FC 27.
We will update you with the full expected promo schedule closer to launch, as well as more official and leaked details as they emerge.
In the meantime, check out the first details on The Grounds, gameplay improvements, and career mode changes like Dynamic Overall and Creator Challenges.
