Season Objectives<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nTo start, I want to give an overview of our new Season Objectives \nfeature. In FUT 19 we\u2019ve seen how incredibly popular Objectives have \nbeen in the FUT community. Season Objectives are part of our wider \nredefined Objectives system in FUT 20, which will allow you to progress \ntowards rewards for your Ultimate Team beyond a daily or week to week \nwindow. Our first Season of FIFA 20 will kick off on 19th September, \nallowing anyone playing FIFA 20 through the EA Access Trial to begin \ntheir progress ahead of the worldwide launch on 27th September. The \nfirst season will run until the end of October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you login to Ultimate Team after creating your Club, you\u2019ll find\n the new Objectives Hub accessible from the FUT Central menu. Inside \nthis hub you\u2019ll be able to track your progress towards Season Rewards, \njump to the next season objective that you choose to complete, as well \nas see your progression against Milestones and Foundation objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/seasonjovicwlegal-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nIn FUT 20, Objectives can be grouped together by themes and tasks. \nIndividual Objectives you complete will earn you XP and Rewards, as well\n as help progress towards completing the Objective group it is in. \nCompleting groups of Objectives will be key to you unlocking larger \nrewards to help you grow, customize or advance your Ultimate Team.
\n
\nSeason Objectives will be released in 4 ways: Daily, Weekly, Season, <\/strong>and Dynamic Objectives<\/strong>.
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n- Daily Objectives<\/strong> are simple tasks which are released each day\n and contribute XP to your Season Rewards. They will automatically \nrelease each day and expire after 24hrs.<\/li>
- Weekly Objectives<\/strong> are groups of objectives which have rewards\n and XP associated with the completion of the individual objectives \nrelease each week. In case you miss one week\u2019s objectives they will stay\n active in the game for a 2nd week, with the exception of the last week \nof a season which will expire when the Season does.<\/li>
- Season Objectives<\/strong> are longer term challenges to finish and \nfrom the time they are put live they will remain live until the last day\n of the season.<\/li>
- Finally, Dynamic Objectives<\/strong> are special time-limited release \nObjective Groups which will not have a regular release schedule and will\n end after a set period of time determined by the dynamic objective \ngroup. These could be tied to campaigns or real world events that are \nhappening in the game during the course of the Season.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Completing Objectives and earning XP will progress your Level on the \nSeason Rewards tab. In our first season there will be 30 Levels, each \nwith its own Season Reward or Reward choice. There will be a diverse mix\n of rewards available in the objectives feature ranging from packs, \nplayers, club customization content or other items to help progress your\n club such as match coin boosts.We\u2019re looking to balance Season \nprogression to appeal to all types of FUT players, from those who play \nonce or twice a week, to players regularly competing in FUT Champions or\n Division Rivals. As you level up throughout the Season, the bigger both\n the challenges and rewards will become. You\u2019ll be able to track your \noverall progress and see all level rewards in the Season Rewards screen \nfor the duration of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/seasonal-4.gif\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThat\u2019s not all for objectives this year. We\u2019ve also introduced two other ways to unlock rewards for your play with Foundation<\/strong> and Milestones Objectives<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n- Foundation Objectives<\/strong> are the place for new players to learn \nthe ropes of FIFA Ultimate Team, with organized learning objectives \ngrouped together by subjects such as trading, team building and \nChemistry.<\/li>
- Milestones Objectives<\/strong> are long term objective groups which \nare not tied to any Season. Once a Milestone objective group is created \nin FUT 20 you\u2019ll be able to continue making progress against these \nobjectives, unlocking their rewards at your pace. From player feedback \nwe know that many of you have been looking for more ways to progress in \nFUT and Milestones allow us to celebrate and reward key moments in every\n player\u2019s FUT Club.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Overall there\u2019s going to be more choice in the objectives system both\n in what you want to do with your time as you continue to progress, and \nwhich rewards you want to work towards unlocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
New Customization Options<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nWe\u2019ve also added new ways to personalize your club and truly show off\n your unique style on the pitch. In the past when playing FUT we\u2019ve had a\n number of custom kits, designed by some amazing artists, which have \nbeen loved by our fans – with some of our custom kits being among the \nmost popular kits in Ultimate Team.
\n
\nIn FUT 20 we\u2019re going to take things to a new level with eight Club \nCustomization options to mix and match; you\u2019ll be sure to find options \nthat help you show off your club in a more unique way. By adding new \nStadium Themes, Tifos, unique custom balls, new crests, and custom \ncelebrations to the game there are going to be thousands of combinations\n to personalize your club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/customizationoptions-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nIf you\u2019re a football purist interested in finding authentic customization options, or someone who\u2019s style isn\u2019t as traditional, we\u2019ve got lots of new customization options that will give you an opportunity to create your own environment that feels unique to your club.
Both Stadium Theme\u2019s and Tifo\u2019s are new additions in FUT 20. Your Stadium theme will feature on the sidelines and in the crowd throughout the match. Your Tifo will feature in the pre-match intros and after goals there will be some replays which feature your Tifo in the background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/zidane-tifo-rm-00-1-1024x606.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nCelebrations you assign to your club are assigned to the <X\/A<\/strong>> button in gameplay and will be easily accessible after you score a goal. Assigning your custom celebration won\u2019t remove the ability to trigger any other celebrations with their assigned button combinations.
It\u2019s important to note the ball selection you make will only be seen on your own screen. This is done to ensure that we do not create any visibility issues for other players. Also not all stadiums in FUT support all customization features; look out for icons on Stadium items to know which types of customization each stadium supports to ensure you have a location that contains support for the customization types you want to see.
<\/p>\n\n\n\nFUT Friendlies<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nOne of the things that I’m really excited to talk about is the launch of FUT Friendlies. A new hub to play FUT with your friends locally or online, as well as head to head online in traditional 11v11 gameplay, with or without House Rules.
Matches within FUT Friendlies do not consume contracts or fitness, or count towards your club record and they do not carry over injuries and red cards making them the perfect place to experiment with your new players. We’ve also paired the mode with deeper stats tracking in Friendlies, so that you’ll have a one stop spot to know which of your friends is truly the best at Ultimate Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/h2h-record-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\nAs I mentioned above, the mode features 11v11 Classic gameplay, but the \ntrue fun in FUT Friendlies comes when you branch out into some custom \nHouse Rules. In FUT 20 select House Rules modes launched in FIFA 19 – \nand 4 new modes designed specifically for FIFA 20 – will be available \nfor you to choose from. \n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/ways-to-play-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nMax Chemistry and Swaps will be two exclusive ways to play in Ultimate Team, while Mystery Ball and King of the Hill will be released in FUT, Pro Clubs & Kick Off – along with the already established Headers & Volleys, Survival, Long Range, No Rules, and Classic Match.
In Max Chemistry<\/strong> we\u2019ve taken the restrictions of team building away and added a full boost to players\u2019 Chemistry, regardless of their position in the squad or their links. Each player will play at 10 chemistry and the team will have 100 team chemistry, allowing you to experiment with new squad combinations with the full power of chemistry styles.
Swaps<\/strong> brings a team building twist to the match. At the start of each game you\u2019ll have 3 players randomly swapped from your squad with your opponent. Will you get your opponents best 3 and replace them with some of your bronze starters? Or will you just get to experience what it\u2019s like to play with some different players you have never used before? As an additional benefit, if you manage to score on your friend with one of their players you\u2019ll be awarded 2 points for that goal. Each match in Swaps will bring some fun opportunities to use your friends’ players against them.
Mystery Ball <\/strong>brings the element of surprise each time the ball leaves play as it comes in as a new mystery ball type. Each ball has a custom goal value that ranges from 1-3 goals and boosts the player in possession with over the top effects that take their Shooting, Dribbling, Passing, Sprint Speed, or the all powerful All Ball, which brings each of the other effects at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/misteryball-light.gif\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nKing of the Hill <\/strong>combines the power of dribbling in a control zone with a goal value meter making the focus of the game different than ever before. A control zone will spawn in the attacking zone which you will have to get the ball inside and then continue to control it as the space shrinks and your goal meter starts to fill. Balance your chances between retaining possession and pushing for a max goal value of 3, and then work your way up the pitch and try to score.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/koth-light.gif\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nWe know that when it comes to House Rules everyone has their \nfavorites. In FUT Friendlies you can build your own playlist by \nselecting a range of House Rules for your own custom playlist or select \nthe exact type of match you want to play. These new ways to play, stats \ntracking. and the potential to combine with Season Objectives are sure \nto bring new fun and casual ways to play with your friends and opponents\n in FUT 20.
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Easier Squad Management (Squad Screen)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe Squad screen has always been one of the key experiences when \nplaying FIFA Ultimate Team. As Ultimate Team has grown and expanded \nthrough the years we\u2019ve added lots of new and useful functions to the \nsquad, but fundamentally the overall experience of using the squad \nscreen has become a bit too complex.
\n
\nWe looked at the key ways people were using the squad screen and \naddressed many of the core flows which had proven more challenging for \nplayers. Our starting point here was to find a way to truly integrate \nyour squad, club and the transfer market in a single experience that \nmakes managing who goes into your squad a quicker and more integrated \npart of the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/squad-link-chem-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n Selecting a player in FUT 20 and pressing <R1 \/ RB<\/strong>> will take you directly to your club, filtered to the position selected where appropriate. From there you can refine the results with a quick press of <\u25b3 \/ Y<\/strong>> and access the complete set of unified filters, if needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/club-swap-copy-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nBy pressing <L1 \/ LB<\/strong>> instead, you will navigate to the Transfer Market which will be pre-filtered to the position you\u2019re trying to fill and with a coin balance that doesn\u2019t exceed your current maximum for Buy It Now; quickly enabling a search for players who might be what you\u2019re looking for. If you want to get more specific with your search we\u2019ve brought in the full transfer market filters to refine your search and enable you to have the same experience that you\u2019re used to in the full fledged transfer market directly from your squad screen.
The player actions menu has been completely redesigned as well, now pressing <\u2610 \/ X<\/strong>> on a player brings up a radial menu with quick options to apply consumables, jump to player tactics, or just to quick sell a player. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/radial2-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAnd for anyone looking for the manager on the squad, he hasn\u2019t been removed, just added to the dock with your subs and reserves.
Overall in FUT 20 the full squad screen experience is greatly improved and we\u2019re excited for you to get your hands on it and try it out.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Squad Battles<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nSince the launch in FUT 18, Squad Battles has proven to be one of our\n most popular modes. In FUT 20, you\u2019ll see a new interface which puts a \nbetter emphasis on the details of the squad you\u2019re about to face. You\u2019ll\n see the top three players from each squad, some details on the current \ntactical setup and formation, the kits and stadium, as well as the \nratings for the squad and their chemistry displayed more clearly. Those \nopponent squads will feature their customization as well, with Tifo and \nstadium themes carrying into each match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/squadbattle-1024x576.png\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nIn addition to the improved interface for opponent selection we\u2019ve \nmade some changes to the fundamentals of squad battles, which should \nimprove things for people by enabling easier access to playing your \nmatches on your schedule.
\n
\nTo start, we\u2019ve removed the timed refreshes in Squad Battles for FUT 20.\n You will now be able to refresh 4 new squads whenever you want, until \nyou hit your maximum of 10 refreshes for the weekly competition (up 40 \ngames per week). While those first 10 refreshes are the only squads \nwhich will count towards your weekly competition standings, you will be \nable to continue to refresh and get new opponent squads to work on \ncompleting objectives or just for some fresh opponents to play.
\n
\nWe\u2019ve also included the Team of the Week as a recurring Squad Battles \nopponent. Which, along with the Featured Squad Battle, you\u2019ll now be \nable to replay if desired to try and improve your final score. You\u2019ll \nneed to balance risk and reward when you re-match and replace your \nprevious score in an attempt to earn more points, push yourself higher \nup the leaderboards, and gain better rewards.
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other Changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nPre-Match Setup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve redesigned our pre-match flow for matchmaking in an online match. Now in FUT 20 you\u2019ll see new options when it comes time to select your kits. You\u2019ll have the option to select playing against your opponent in your other kit for a guaranteed match experience, or to play against your opponent in one of their chosen kits. The kits your opponent is using will not be displayed before the match starts. Behind the scenes we\u2019ll use logic to evaluate the colour of the kit you are wearing and choose the kit your opponent is wearing which has the least similar colour patterns to your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bulk Quick sale of consumables<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nWe\u2019ve added an option to the game to allow the bulk quick sell of consumables in your club. When browsing your club consumables you\u2019ll have the option in the quick sell menus to quick sell multiple items at the same time. This will greatly reduce the time and effort for players when you\u2019d like to turn some of your excess consumables into coins for your club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FUT Champions<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nFrom the start of FUT Champions in FUT 20 and through the year, we plan to have more to do with the FUT Champions Red players earned as part of the weekly rewards. To kick things off, in FUT 20 we will ensure that the Champion SBCs are in the game from launch. There will be a SBC to submit any 5 Champions items for a 83-86 rated Champions player. Additionally, we will have a SBC with requirements to submit an 81 rated squad of Champions players to receive a player pick 86+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Division Rivals<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nFor our Division Rivals players we\u2019ve got a few tweaks to the way \nthat things work in FUT 20. First, we\u2019ve changed some of the skill \nrating requirements for divisions in FUT 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DIVISION<\/th> SKILL RATING<\/th><\/tr> 1<\/th> 1900<\/th><\/tr> 2<\/th> 1700<\/th><\/tr> 3<\/th> 1500<\/th><\/tr> 4<\/th> 1250<\/th><\/tr> 5<\/th> 1000<\/th><\/tr> 6<\/th> 750<\/th><\/tr> 7<\/th> 550<\/th><\/tr> 8<\/th> 350<\/th><\/tr> 9<\/th> 115<\/th><\/tr> 10<\/th> 0<\/th><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n\n\nAdditionally, we\u2019ve changed the functionality of matchmaking in the upper tiers of skill rating. As a player who exceeds 2200 skill rating in Division 1, your matchmaking will have hit a cap. This change is targeted to improve the overall likelihood of matchmaking in upper skill tiers and ensure that players find games both quicker and with more regularity. You will continue to calculate skill per your exact skill rating and your skill rating can exceed 2200. This change is only applied to finding an opponent in Division Rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FUT Stadiums<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIn an effort to reduce the variance experienced match to match in lighting and shadows, we\u2019ve made a choice to lock in specific time of day settings for each of the stadiums in FIFA Ultimate Team. Before each match, the game will select between day and night and will use the predetermined time of day and weather conditions to ensure a priority on minimizing the impact of shadows in each stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Companion App<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nWe know the Companion App is an extremely popular place for fans to \ncomplete Squad Management tasks and Squad Building Challenges. In FUT 20\n we\u2019re bringing new features to help streamline the process to make it \neasier to manage your Club on the go.
\n
\nIn FUT 20 Companion App we\u2019ll adding the ability to create Custom \nTactics for your active FUT Squad. Similar to on console, you\u2019ll be able\n to tweak your tactical set up for 5 different presets ahead of you \ngoing into your next match. On top of tactical changes you can also \nswitch up your look with the full Club Customization options that you \nfind on the console. Check in on your progress in Season Objectives and \nsee how far away you are from your next objective, potentially even \nbeing able tick off one or two of the tasks through the App itself.
\n
\nOn the Companion App you will be able to add SBC Protection onto players\n in your Club, to help ensure that you don\u2019t submit a star player into a\n SBC by accident. If you do try to submit a player with SBC Protection \nenabled you will receive a prompt asking you to confirm that you are \nhappy to submit this player. We\u2019ll also be adding to the search \nfunctionality within the Companion app to exclude Active Squad members \nfrom Club search results, making squad building and SBCs easier to do.
\n
\nWe\u2019re excited for everything that FUT 20 has in store and looking \nforward to giving you all the chance to try this out for yourselves, \nthank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll\n see the top three players from each squad, some details on the current \ntactical setup and formation, the kits and stadium, as well as the \nratings for the squad and their chemistry displayed more clearly. Those \nopponent squads will feature their customization as well, with Tifo and \nstadium themes carrying into each match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the improved interface for opponent selection we\u2019ve \nmade some changes to the fundamentals of squad battles, which should \nimprove things for people by enabling easier access to playing your \nmatches on your schedule. We\u2019ve redesigned our pre-match flow for matchmaking in an online match. Now in FUT 20 you\u2019ll see new options when it comes time to select your kits. You\u2019ll have the option to select playing against your opponent in your other kit for a guaranteed match experience, or to play against your opponent in one of their chosen kits. The kits your opponent is using will not be displayed before the match starts. Behind the scenes we\u2019ll use logic to evaluate the colour of the kit you are wearing and choose the kit your opponent is wearing which has the least similar colour patterns to your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve added an option to the game to allow the bulk quick sell of consumables in your club. When browsing your club consumables you\u2019ll have the option in the quick sell menus to quick sell multiple items at the same time. This will greatly reduce the time and effort for players when you\u2019d like to turn some of your excess consumables into coins for your club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From the start of FUT Champions in FUT 20 and through the year, we plan to have more to do with the FUT Champions Red players earned as part of the weekly rewards. To kick things off, in FUT 20 we will ensure that the Champion SBCs are in the game from launch. There will be a SBC to submit any 5 Champions items for a 83-86 rated Champions player. Additionally, we will have a SBC with requirements to submit an 81 rated squad of Champions players to receive a player pick 86+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For our Division Rivals players we\u2019ve got a few tweaks to the way \nthat things work in FUT 20. First, we\u2019ve changed some of the skill \nrating requirements for divisions in FUT 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, we\u2019ve changed the functionality of matchmaking in the upper tiers of skill rating. As a player who exceeds 2200 skill rating in Division 1, your matchmaking will have hit a cap. This change is targeted to improve the overall likelihood of matchmaking in upper skill tiers and ensure that players find games both quicker and with more regularity. You will continue to calculate skill per your exact skill rating and your skill rating can exceed 2200. This change is only applied to finding an opponent in Division Rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In an effort to reduce the variance experienced match to match in lighting and shadows, we\u2019ve made a choice to lock in specific time of day settings for each of the stadiums in FIFA Ultimate Team. Before each match, the game will select between day and night and will use the predetermined time of day and weather conditions to ensure a priority on minimizing the impact of shadows in each stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We know the Companion App is an extremely popular place for fans to \ncomplete Squad Management tasks and Squad Building Challenges. In FUT 20\n we\u2019re bringing new features to help streamline the process to make it \neasier to manage your Club on the go. FIFA 20<\/strong> is available from September 27, 2019 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch.

\nSeason Objectives will be released in 4 ways: Daily, Weekly, Season, <\/strong>and Dynamic Objectives<\/strong>.
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nNew Customization Options<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\nIn FUT 20 we\u2019re going to take things to a new level with eight Club \nCustomization options to mix and match; you\u2019ll be sure to find options \nthat help you show off your club in a more unique way. By adding new \nStadium Themes, Tifos, unique custom balls, new crests, and custom \ncelebrations to the game there are going to be thousands of combinations\n to personalize your club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Both Stadium Theme\u2019s and Tifo\u2019s are new additions in FUT 20. Your Stadium theme will feature on the sidelines and in the crowd throughout the match. Your Tifo will feature in the pre-match intros and after goals there will be some replays which feature your Tifo in the background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s important to note the ball selection you make will only be seen on your own screen. This is done to ensure that we do not create any visibility issues for other players. Also not all stadiums in FUT support all customization features; look out for icons on Stadium items to know which types of customization each stadium supports to ensure you have a location that contains support for the customization types you want to see.
<\/p>\n\n\n\nFUT Friendlies<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Matches within FUT Friendlies do not consume contracts or fitness, or count towards your club record and they do not carry over injuries and red cards making them the perfect place to experiment with your new players. We’ve also paired the mode with deeper stats tracking in Friendlies, so that you’ll have a one stop spot to know which of your friends is truly the best at Ultimate Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
In Max Chemistry<\/strong> we\u2019ve taken the restrictions of team building away and added a full boost to players\u2019 Chemistry, regardless of their position in the squad or their links. Each player will play at 10 chemistry and the team will have 100 team chemistry, allowing you to experiment with new squad combinations with the full power of chemistry styles.
Swaps<\/strong> brings a team building twist to the match. At the start of each game you\u2019ll have 3 players randomly swapped from your squad with your opponent. Will you get your opponents best 3 and replace them with some of your bronze starters? Or will you just get to experience what it\u2019s like to play with some different players you have never used before? As an additional benefit, if you manage to score on your friend with one of their players you\u2019ll be awarded 2 points for that goal. Each match in Swaps will bring some fun opportunities to use your friends’ players against them.
Mystery Ball <\/strong>brings the element of surprise each time the ball leaves play as it comes in as a new mystery ball type. Each ball has a custom goal value that ranges from 1-3 goals and boosts the player in possession with over the top effects that take their Shooting, Dribbling, Passing, Sprint Speed, or the all powerful All Ball, which brings each of the other effects at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\nEasier Squad Management (Squad Screen)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\nWe looked at the key ways people were using the squad screen and \naddressed many of the core flows which had proven more challenging for \nplayers. Our starting point here was to find a way to truly integrate \nyour squad, club and the transfer market in a single experience that \nmakes managing who goes into your squad a quicker and more integrated \npart of the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
The player actions menu has been completely redesigned as well, now pressing <\u2610 \/ X<\/strong>> on a player brings up a radial menu with quick options to apply consumables, jump to player tactics, or just to quick sell a player. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
Overall in FUT 20 the full squad screen experience is greatly improved and we\u2019re excited for you to get your hands on it and try it out.
<\/p>\n\n\n\nSquad Battles<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\nTo start, we\u2019ve removed the timed refreshes in Squad Battles for FUT 20.\n You will now be able to refresh 4 new squads whenever you want, until \nyou hit your maximum of 10 refreshes for the weekly competition (up 40 \ngames per week). While those first 10 refreshes are the only squads \nwhich will count towards your weekly competition standings, you will be \nable to continue to refresh and get new opponent squads to work on \ncompleting objectives or just for some fresh opponents to play.
\n
\nWe\u2019ve also included the Team of the Week as a recurring Squad Battles \nopponent. Which, along with the Featured Squad Battle, you\u2019ll now be \nable to replay if desired to try and improve your final score. You\u2019ll \nneed to balance risk and reward when you re-match and replace your \nprevious score in an attempt to earn more points, push yourself higher \nup the leaderboards, and gain better rewards.

Companion App<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\nIn FUT 20 Companion App we\u2019ll adding the ability to create Custom \nTactics for your active FUT Squad. Similar to on console, you\u2019ll be able\n to tweak your tactical set up for 5 different presets ahead of you \ngoing into your next match. On top of tactical changes you can also \nswitch up your look with the full Club Customization options that you \nfind on the console. Check in on your progress in Season Objectives and \nsee how far away you are from your next objective, potentially even \nbeing able tick off one or two of the tasks through the App itself.
\n
\nOn the Companion App you will be able to add SBC Protection onto players\n in your Club, to help ensure that you don\u2019t submit a star player into a\n SBC by accident. If you do try to submit a player with SBC Protection \nenabled you will receive a prompt asking you to confirm that you are \nhappy to submit this player. We\u2019ll also be adding to the search \nfunctionality within the Companion app to exclude Active Squad members \nfrom Club search results, making squad building and SBCs easier to do.
\n
\nWe\u2019re excited for everything that FUT 20 has in store and looking \nforward to giving you all the chance to try this out for yourselves, \nthank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
