With the Shapeshifters promo live in FIFA 23, EA has released two new challenges that go hand in hand, the Silver Shifting Upgrade and the Shapeshifters Crafting Upgrade SBC, allowing players to acquire some lucrative cards.

The Team 1 release features several highly-rated cards, such as Pele, Van Dijk, and Rudiger, making the promo lucrative for FUT enthusiasts looking for a change in pace with the new unique cards.
