Team of the Group Stage is live in EA FC 24 featuring permanently boosted cards for Mbappe, Saka, and more

The Team of the Group Stage roster has been released in EA FC 24, bringing a wide variety of special cards featuring some big names like Mbappe, Saka, and Jude Bellingham. Since the players on this lineup are the top performers in various group stages of European championships — namely UCL, UEL, and UECL — EA Sports is commemorating their real-life contributions with in-game upgrades.

Unlike the normal RTTK promo, TOTGS cards feature permanent boosts and are not dynamic. That said, the increase in their stats is substantial enough to make them lucrative without them getting further boosts.
