FIFA 22 Next Generation promo grants free wonderkid to every player
EA has announced an Ultimate Team campaign called FIFA 22 Next Generation, in which every player will receive a free FUT item with one of the best young players in the game.
A total of six entries will be released, with the French talisman Kylian Mbappé as the headline - though it's worth noting that his card has "only" 86 ratings, compared to position 91-OVR on our FIFA 22 rating list.
Other names that can be unlocked in exchange for playing on a specific date include Manchester City star Phil Foden, Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic and Dortmund prodigy Jude Bellingham. A complete list with reviews is at the bottom of this story.
To unlock your item, simply play FIFA 22 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X (or S), PC or Stadia before January 14, 2022. Once you've qualified to get a next-gen item, EA says it will. they appear in your account "from December 15".
Cards are limited to one per account, so both Mbappe and Foden cannot be earned, no matter how many virtual riches you have at your disposal.
FIFA 22 Next Generation cards are not transferable, so it is not possible to use them to make a profit in the transfer market. Unfortunately, Next Generation players are not included in the Nintendo Switch version of FIFA 22.
Next Generation is the second new campaign announced by EA in the week, with FIFA 22 Numbers Up last Friday - featuring upgradable cards for Bellingham teammates Mats Hummels and Gio Reyna, as well as Premier Leagues like Diogo Jota and Declan Rice.
Below is a complete list of FIFA 22 Next Generation cards:
Kylian Mbappe (LW, Paris SG) - 86
Phil Foden (CAM, Manchester City) - 85
Theo Hernandez (LB, Milan) - 85
Christian Pulisic (LW, Chelsea) - 83
Eduardo Camavinga (CM, Real Madrid) - 81
Jude Bellingham (CM, Dortmund) - 81
