Fresh EA Sports FC 27 leaks are starting to paint a clearer picture of what could be the biggest overhaul to Ultimate Team in years. Early gameplay impressions, a brand-new “Gallery” collection system and revolutionary Squad Building Challenge changes have all surfaced online following closed testing sessions.
While all features are reportedly still in development and subject to change before release, the leaks have already generated huge excitement within the FC community.
FC 27 Gameplay Leak Suggests a Return to Early FC 26 Feel
According to early testers, EA FC 27 currently feels very similar to the launch version of FC 26 but with noticeable improvements in manual defending.
One gameplay reviewer described the current build as “an FC26 pre-patch with better manual defending”, suggesting the core gameplay foundation is already in a strong state.
Tackling and Defensive Play Appear Improved
One of the biggest complaints from FC 26 players involved rebound tackles and defenders failing to win possession cleanly. However, early impressions suggest EA may finally be addressing that issue.
Key gameplay observations from the leak include:
Potrebbero Interessarti
- Cleaner possession-based tackles
- Fewer bounce-back situations
- Improved jockey movement
- Better manual interceptions when reading passing lanes
- Balanced left-stick dribbling similar to FC 26 launch gameplay
Manual defending reportedly feels more rewarding, especially for players who actively anticipate passes rather than relying on AI assistance.
Through Balls Still Powerful in Current FC 27 Build
Despite the positive feedback, testers also noted that through balls and counter-attacks remain highly effective in the current version.
That could still change before launch, with insiders claiming EA are actively collecting gameplay feedback during testing phases.
The expectation among many players is that EA will further nerf counter-attacking mechanics before FC 27 officially releases.
EA Testing New “Gallery” Collection System in FC 27 Ultimate Team
Perhaps the biggest leak so far involves a completely new Ultimate Team feature reportedly called “The Gallery”.
The system appears to work similarly to a collection book, allowing players to permanently register cards into themed collections.
How The Gallery Could Work in FC 27
According to the leak, once a player card is packed, it permanently remains inside your collection database even if you:
- Sell the card
- Quick sell it
- Submit it into an SBC
Players could then submit cards into various collection categories to earn rewards and improve collection grades.
Examples mentioned in the leak include:
- France national team collections
- Club-based collections such as Real Madrid
- Multi-use cards that count toward several collections simultaneously
A player like Kylian Mbappé could reportedly contribute to both France and Real Madrid collections at the same time.
FC 27 Gallery Rewards Could Include Exclusive Items
Leaks claim collections will receive grades ranging from:
- S Rank
- A Rank
- B Rank
- C Rank
Higher grades would unlock better rewards, potentially including:
- Exclusive player items
- Cosmetic content
- Special Ultimate Team rewards
However, insiders stressed that reward structures are still unclear and the feature remains in active testing.
FC 27 Could Introduce Revolutionary One-Click SBC System
Another major leak suggests EA Sports are experimenting with a completely redesigned Squad Building Challenge system.
The feature would reportedly allow players to complete certain SBCs instantly using a points-based system.
How One-Click SBCs May Work
Instead of relying purely on chemistry and squad ratings, cards could receive individual SBC values.
For example:
- An SBC may require 3000 points
- A high-rated Mbappé card could be worth 2000 points
- Additional cards would then fill the remaining value automatically
The system would also reportedly include an automatic squad submission button capable of completing SBCs in a single click.
Same Card Could Be Submitted Multiple Times
Another leaked change claims players may be able to use the same card multiple times within a single SBC challenge.
One example circulating online suggested:
- A special Endrick TOTS card worth 500 points
- An SBC requiring exactly 500 points
- Instant challenge completion with one submission
If implemented correctly, the system could dramatically reduce the time players spend managing duplicate cards and building repeatable SBC squads manually.
EA Sports Yet to Confirm FC 27 Features
As with all leaks, fans should approach the information cautiously.
Every feature mentioned is reportedly still in testing, meaning EA Sports could:
- Modify the systems significantly
- Delay them until a future title
- Cancel them entirely before release
Still, the leaks suggest EA are preparing some of the biggest Ultimate Team changes since the mode was first introduced.
If the Gallery system and one-click SBCs both make it into the final game, FC 27 could fundamentally change how players collect cards, complete challenges and manage their clubs throughout the season.
