In FIFA 19, the winter upgrades are coming – the ratings refresh in FUT. Here are predictions on which Bundesliga players might receive new cards.
Update: Here are the official winter upgrades for the Bundesliga.
New standard cards for FUT 19: Almost 5 months have passed since the launch of FIFA 19. This means that for almost 5 months the same standard player cards have been in Ultimate Team. And many of them have become outdated in their ratings.
During this time, numerous Bundesliga matches have been played, during which the professionals showed various performances on the pitch. The winter upgrades are meant to align the standard cards in FUT with the current real-life performances of the players.
