How to Get Ultimate Birthday Players?
You can obtain Ultimate Birthday players in various ways:
1. Buy Ultimate Birthday Players on the Transfer Market
A reliable method to acquire Ultimate Birthday players is by purchasing them on the in-game transfer market. Given that Ultimate Birthday player cards are high-rated and in high demand, they come at a premium price, so be prepared to shell out some FC Coins.
2. Complete Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) to Earn Packs
As we’re used to during events in EA FC, packs containing potential Ultimate Birthday player cards can be earned by completing Squad Building Challenges (SBCs). Be sure to check the current SBCs in-game to maximize your playtime during the Ultimate Birthday event.
3. Buy Packs with Coins or FC Points
Instead of relying on the transfer market or SBCs, you have the option to buy packs with FC Points. Startselect offers official FC Points for Xbox and official PlayStation Store cards that can be used to buy FC Points in the PlayStation Store. Pick up a card for your preferred platform and instantly get your FC Points with 100% valid codes.
