FIFA 22 Fantasy FUT latest leaks
If you don't want to spoil the upcoming FIFA 22 Fantasy FUT promo, look away now as potential leaks are ahead.
According to Twitter users such as @FutSheriff, Fantasy FUT is effectively a replacement for the 'What If' FUT promo, which was released for the first and only time in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. The FUT 'What If' promo featured boosted dynamic player items that were eligible to receive additional one-time plus two overall upgrades based on their team fulfilling certain scenarios based on their team's real-life performances.
@FutSheriff claims that the FIFA 22 Fantasy FUT promo player items will feature boosts on release, but will also be dynamic, and will be upgraded based on certain criteria being fulfilled.
This also seems to confirm why there are two card designs, with one card design being used for the initially released FIFA 22 Fantasy FUT player items and the other being for the upgraded version. The apparent upgrade criteria for FIFA 22 Fantasy FUT player items is below:
