EA Sports has reintroduced the concept of Swaps in Ultimate Team, but the new EA FC 25 Mode Mastery rewards offer a unique twist to this idea. In earlier iterations of Ultimate Team, Swaps Tokens could be earned via objectives and SBCs and then exchanged for packs or players. However, the method of obtaining these tokens is different now.
Mode Mastery players will now be available via rewards in various game modes like Squad Battles, Rivals, and Champions. Gamers can obtain specific ranks to acquire a higher number of such players, increasing the level of EA FC 25 Mode Mastery rewards they can get their hands on in the process.
The EA FC 25 Mode Mastery Rewards are now live in Ultimate Team
Similar to Swaps from previous years, the EA FC 25 Mode Mastery Rewards feature a generous mix of packs, picks, and players. These packs have high rating thresholds, and some of the picks even include Icons. However, the most appealing inclusion will be the exclusive special players, like Real Madrid's Rodrygo and Chelsea FC's Christopher Nkunku.
