In FIFA 21 there is a new event coming up on Friday. And EA has now confirmed that it is a new promo called “Rulebreakers”.
Update 22.10., 19:20 Uhr: In a tweet, EA has now revealed the event name. The new promo will be called Rulebreakers and is set to start tomorrow, on 23.10. at 19:00.
However, nothing is known yet about the contents and new special cards. A picture on Twitter suggests a Rulebreakers card that could fit Dries Mertens from SSC Napoli.
Here is the original article continued.
These are the hints: EA Sports gave a first teaser for the new event on Twitter, which is set to start on Friday, 23.10. In addition to the start date, it showed a new card design as well as the letters “R”, “R” and “S”.
In the background of the image, a pitch line is also visible. There are not many more hints available. What could be coming up?
Players speculate – Rulebreakers instead of Ultimate Scream?
This is unusual: Many players actually expected the start of the “Ultimate Scream” event this Friday. The Halloween promo is almost traditionally the first major event after release that takes place in the Ultimate Team season. The timing would have been perfect. This year, however, it seems that another event is taking precedence. Or?
What could be in the event? Some players on reddit speculate that it could be a Halloween variation. Words like “Resurrects” or “Resurrections” often come up as possible names for the event – thus a promo with the theme “Resurrection.” This could also fit Halloween, for example when thinking about zombies,
Players suggest ideas like older players receiving special cards – essentially “brought back to life.” Names like Robben, Ribery, or Ibrahimovic are mentioned. However, this concept would also correspond to the already existing Flashback cards.
By the way, do you know the oldest player in FIFA 21?
Another possible event title that often comes up is “Rulebreakers.” The name is mentioned, for example, by “FUT Watch,” where the code of the game is frequently discussed. And this time, something apparently has been found in the code:
According to the code, the name has already been leaked. Such a promo might not have a Halloween reference, but on reddit, discussions are already taking place about what it could be. Some users suspect that it could indeed be a promo for “unfair” players – that is, players who frequently foul or receive cards. Names like Pepe or Sergio Ramos then come up. However, how this would be implementable is not entirely clear.
Ideas like: “Objective: Concede 5 penalties in Rivals; receive 2 red cards” (via reddit) sound funny, but probably not realistic. How the promo will ultimately look and what it will be called will likely only be revealed by the event itself, unless there are any further hints beforehand.
As for Ultimate Scream, that is also still open for now. However, there is still time for that. Halloween is only on Saturday next week – a Friday remains with October 30 until then to promptly start a Halloween event.
