In FIFA 22, the FUT Heroes are introduced as a new type of special card. We show you all known FUT Heroes so far and explain what the new cards bring.
What are FUT Heroes? The FUT Heroes are a kind of “light Icons” that will be newly introduced with the FIFA 22 release. They are some really strong soccer players from the past who have become fan favorites over time or have provided unforgettable moments.
One example is Mario Gomez. Gomez should still be well known to soccer fans here. Among other things, he played for VfB Stuttgart, FC Bayern Munich, and VfL Wolfsburg. He was also in the national team for a long time. In FIFA 20, a Gomez fan gained attention with an incredible number of matches.
So you can expect a whole range of soccer players who may not have been at the level of a Ronaldo or Zidane, but who still remain in your memory today.
What makes FUT Heroes special: The Heroes cards work a bit differently in Ultimate Team than regular or Icon cards. They have their own unique way of building chemistry in the team.
Each FUT Hero is associated with a specific league in which they previously showcased their skills. The FUT Heroes cards then build a green chemistry connection to that respective league. In addition, the usual connection for the same nationality is assigned to other players.
The FUT Heroes can offer you new opportunities to build your team.
In the following list, you will find all known FUT Heroes so far with their overall rating and details about their chemistry connections.
