Summary: The final endgame celebration in Ultimate Team has officially reached its peak. According to reliable community leakers, EA SPORTS is preparing to launch the massive FUTTIES "Best of" Batch 1 re-release into packs.
This special campaign brings back the most dominant promo cards from earlier in the FC 26 cycle, giving players the perfect opportunity to build their dream squads before the season ends. Whether you're planning to buy FC 26 Coins to complete your ultimate squad or have been saving packs for weeks, this promotion could offer some of the biggest upgrades of the FUTTIES season.
If you have been hoarding packs, now is the time to rip them open. The leaked player list includes several highly coveted 99-rated superstars alongside some of the best meta cards in gaming history.
The Headline Leaks: 99 Rodri and 97 Mbappe Lead the Pack
The leaked roster for Batch 1 is absolutely stacked across every position.
The most exciting news for fans is the return of Spain's World Cup hero, Rodri, whose upgraded 99 OVR card boasts elite defending, physical, and newly tuned PlayStyle+ combinations.
Joining him is the legendary 97-rated Team of the Year (TOTY) Kylian Mbappé, a card that remains an unstoppable force in the current meta.
Here is the full list of leaked high-profile players expected to hit packs during the Batch 1 window:
Rodri (Manchester City / Spain) - 99 OVR
Lamine Yamal (Barcelona / Spain) - 99 OVR
Ousmane Dembélé (PSG) - 99 OVR
Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid) - 98 OVR
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) - 98 OVR
Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) - 97 OVR
Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid / France) - 97 OVR
Federico Valverde (Real Madrid) - 97 OVR
Over 180 Special Cards Returning to Packs
According to well-known community insider ASY FUT on X, Batch 1 will not just feature a handful of stars-it is expected to inject over 180 past special items back into the pack pool.
This means that standard upgrade packs, like the 81+ Player Picks or the 83+ x10 Upgrades, will have an extraordinarily high payout rate for high-rated fodder and usable meta players.
The return of these highly rated cards has already started to trigger significant market fluctuations on the FUTBIN Transfer Market, with older Summer Stars and Greats of the Game cards experiencing a massive price drop as availability spikes. Players looking to capitalize on these market changes may also use their FC 26 Coins to pick up elite cards at lower prices while supply remains high.
