The FC 24 Trailblazers promo capitalised on a key new feature of the big footy reboot: PlayStyles.EA Sports FC 24players who scored one of these red-and-blue Ultimate Team cards got more than a ratings boots. They also got at least one fresh PlayStyle, to reward them for a strong start to the real-life season. We explain exactly how the campaign works in your FC 24 Trailblazers guide.
What is the FC 24 Trailblazers promo?
The FC 24 Trailblazers campaign unleashes a new type of red-and-blue card which pays homage to those who’ve started their domestic seasons in form. It launched on Friday, October 13, closing out theFC 24 RTTKcampaign in the process.
Players awarded a Trailblazers card get both a stats upgrade, and a change to theirFC 24 PlayStyles. For instance, Jude Bellingham (CM, 88) has his incredible start for Real Madrid reflected in an item boasting Controlled Sprint, Finesse Shot and Incisive Pass abilities – to go with his existing Intercept, Flair, and Relentless PlayStyles. Yeah, that’s going to be a pricey card all season long…
Bellingham is one of the standouts, but even he is overshadowed by Kylian Mbappe (ST, 92). The PSG megastar already tops the officialFC 24 ratingslist, and now gets a fresh card with two extra OVR points and a new PlayStyle Plus: Power Shot. You’re looking at around 3.2 million to buy that card, as of Friday, December 15.
Ruben Dias (CB, Manchester City) is slightly more affordable at around 88,000 coins. There are a couple of options at close-to discount value, too: Yangel Herrera (CM, Girona, 84) and Kai Wagner (LB, Philadelphia, 84).
FC 24 Trailblazers Team 2 landed on Friday, October 13. Its top-rated player is Harry Kane (ST, FC Bayern, 92), with the England slipper given a whole +9 pace boost as part of the campaign. Former team-mate Son Heung-Min (ST, Tottenham) also gets a flashy new card, with an upgraded overall rating of 89. At the more affordable end of the scale are Martinez Quarta (CB, Fiorentina, 84) and Evander (CM, Portland Timbers, 83).
Yes. Men and women players are mixed together in this year’s game for the first time ever, and the FC 24 Trailblazers campaign launched with a spectacular one: Barca and Norway winger Carolina Graham Hansen. She has seven PlayStyles in total: Finesse Shot (+), Technical, Flair, First Touch, Trickster, Quick Step, and Trivela. Definitely a player worth picking up if you’re planning to get busy with someFC 24 skill moves. Joining her in the campaign is Kerolin Nocoli (RM, NC Courage, 85).
Both of these things were in play from the outset. The first FC 24 Trailblazers SBC was for Read Madrid speedster Rodrygo (ST, 87), and required you to submit four squads – including one with a minimum rating of 88. Ouch. The first objectives player was more attainable. It’s Newcastle’s Callum Wilson (ST, 86), and encouraged you to complete four sets of tasks in Squad Battles, Division Rivals, or Champions – like five assists and seven wins. Hopefully you got it done and then treated yourself to one of the bestFC 24 kitsto celebrate.
The second week added Exequiel Palacios (CM, Leverkusen, 86) as an Objectives reward, and too many SBCs for us to list individually here. The good news? All those players have been added to the FC 24 Trailblazers card list below.
More than a dozen players populated the complete FC 24 Trailblazers cards list at launch – and it’s been expanded since. They’re all included below. Details are correct as of Friday, 15 December.
