Complete FC 27 FUT Developer patch notes (November 2026)

The focus of this month’s Developer patch notes is related to the content we have been receiving in Ultimate Team. This includes access to promo cards, evolutions, and much more.

More promo cards

According to EA Sports, players have been spending more times with the promo cards they have in their collections. However, the developers want to increase the access to specific promo items without tinkering the overall balance. In simple words, we can expect to have more access to specific promo cards, and EA Sports has already introduced it as part of the ongoing RTTK promo.

Better evolutions

It’s a known fact that evolutions have been extremely poor in this year’s cycle. They have been weak and lost the popularity of last year. According to EA Sports, evolutions have lost the impact they can have in squad building and developing our starting XI.

Hence, they have assessed the data and feedback, and there’s an opportunity to fine-tune evolutions to make them more rewarding. Hence, I believe that we will find better evolutions in the days and weeks to come, which would be welcome news for the community.

Better squad diversity

Continuing from the previous change, EA Sports wants to witness more diversity when it comes to squad building. While powered-up evolutions will play a role, there will be more diversity in promo cards. Certain changes are also planned in gameplay to spice up the meta, which will directly allow us to make our teams lot more varied.

Streamlined SBCs to stay the same

Lately, there’s been a discussion that the streamlined SBCs no longer reward us with challenge packs. However, EA Sports has clarified that the potential value of these packs have been considered when pricing the SBCs.

In simple words, the fodder cost of these SBCs would have been higher had we received challenge packs like we used to do. While there are no current plans to bring back challenge packs, this could change eventually based on feedback and data.

Improved Champs rewards

Despite a significant rise in the number of coins you can earn from Champions games, EA Sports believes that there could be more improvement in this department. Any new rewards could also be based around the Champions Token stores and what players typically love to redeem from it.
