Ultimate Scream was first celebrated in FIFA 16. Now it is taking place for the third time.
In FUT 18, the event will last just under two weeks. It is expected to end on November 1 at 7 PM.
Halloween cards in Ultimate Team – All Scream player cards – Scream Team
During Ultimate Scream, there will be special Scream cards in FUT 18. These will have a black and orange design.
Update 7 PM: Here is the complete list:
And here are the “Monster” versions. When the boost phases of the Scream cards are, you can find out here.
Update: EA Sports recently teased the event with this trailer:
The “Scream Team” consists of 23 players. It features a selection of players who have performed strongly on the pitch recently and are now rewarded with upgraded special cards.
The following applies:
- These Halloween cards are available from now until October 29 in packs and will replace the standard cards of the respective players.
- If you already have standard cards of these players in your team, nothing happens to them. So if you want a Halloween card, you must draw it from the packs or purchase it on the transfer market.
- The Halloween cards have only minor boosts to player stats compared to the standard cards. However, there are exceptions: Between October 29 and November 1, these player cards will become “Monsters” – meaning they will be extremely upgraded. After November 1, they return to the normal Halloween cards with minor boosts. During the season at “frightening times,” EA Sports indicates, they will occasionally be upgraded again.
Halloween event – with special packs, SBCs, offers
During Ultimate Scream, EA Sports will put several set offers online, hold SBCs, and offer special items like Halloween jerseys. Gifts via the web app are also possible.
Update:
- At the start of the event, Promo Packs will go live. A Premium Electrum Player Pack for 12,500 coins and a Premium Gold Player Pack for 25,000 coins. These are available for 4 or 2 days.
- These are the jerseys available during the event:

- The Dracula Squad is live as an SBC, through which you can obtain a Premium Gold Player Pack. It is active for 2 days.
How does Ultimate Scream affect the transfer market?
Predictions for the transfer market in FUT 18 should always be taken with caution, as the market is subject to fluctuations and depends on several factors.
It is expected that many packs will be opened during the Halloween event, as fans want the Scream cards. This means that more cards than usual will land on the transfer market. This will lead to a decrease in the prices of individual FUT cards. So during the event, keep an eye out for bargains.
