Latest - Versus Fire squad goes LIVE

The new Versus promo has gone live in packs and the leaks were proved correct!

Gabriel Jesus looks set to be one of the most popular players from the release, with his Brazilian nationality being great for linking to other leagues.

Check out all the new cards from the promo here.

We also have a couple of new players available to unlock in objectives, getting a Fire or Ice player pick of both Everton and Tagliafico.

There is also a new SBC to gain either a Fire or Ice version of Christian Pulisic.

BRAND NEW - The 'Versus' concept is new to FIFA 22!

The 'Fire' XI will be available from Friday, 10 December until Monday, 13 December.

They will then be replaced in packs by the 'Ice' squad on Monday, 13 December until Friday, 17 December.

Versus SBC leaked!

FUTZone has leaked the first-ever Versus SBC via Twitter, and it looks like we're in for a treat!

According to FUTZone, Napoli's Belgian centre-forward, Dries Mertens will be the first SBC player of the Versus promo.

You will be able to choose between a Mertens with five-star skill moves OR a five-star weak foot.

Mertens has brilliant agility and balance which are key 'meta' stats in FIFA 22, so we can't wait to try out his boosted version!

Trio teased

EA's most recent FIFA 22 Ultimate Team loading screen has teased three of the new cards by revealing some of their stats!

Seeing as the whole seems to be common knowledge, we have a pretty good idea as to who these players are!

WE ALREADY KNOW - The first squad was leaked earlier in the week

The German with 92 pace player on the left of the screen is, without doubt, Dortmund left-back Nico Schulz.

The player in the centre of the screen with an 86 OVR rating could be Liverpool and England centre-back, Joe Gomez, or Sevilla's French star Jules Kounde.

We expect the Atletico Madrid player with 89 shooting on the right-hand side of the loading screen to be Angel Correa, as many leaks have suggested that the Argentine will be included.

SBCs & Objectives

We are likely to see plenty of fresh content in the Freeze promo, and the first SBC player looks to have been leaked too.

Christian Pulisic is the man in question, but there is more to it than meets the eye!

According to various sources, will have the choice of whether to upgrade Pulisic's (and likely the other SBCs) weak foot or skill moves ratings.

This adds another layer to the SBC and Objectives players, so make sure to think long and hard before making your decision.
