FIFA 23: Recognizing Walkouts – Pay attention to these animations

In FIFA 23 there are new pack animations and we show you how to recognize early whether you’ve pulled a top card.

What is a Walkout anyway? A “Walkout” is a term established by FIFA fans that describes the best player of the pack appearing and walking through the image when opening the pack. However, this only happens with truly high-rated players who have a minimum rating of 86.

However, there is always a way to recognize whether it is a Walkout, even before the player appears on the screen. For example, in FIFA 22, the flames around the stage indicated that there was indeed a strong card in the pack.

If you look closely, you can save a few seconds and skip the animation if you already know that none of the top cards are included.

Camera, fireworks, and lights show how good the card will be

Here’s how to recognize the different card types: As already last year, the pack animation of FUT 23 is quite short again, which means you have little time to recognize how strong the card will be before the rating is displayed.

Here’s how the animations differ:

  • You can recognize a Walkout by several factors. Firstly, the camera tilts slightly to the left right at the beginning. Then the lights around the pedestal shine somewhat less brightly than with weaker cards. And a fireworks explosion appears directly above the card.
  • The small spotlights at the edges of the pedestal indicate whether you are getting a player between 83 and 85. If they shine in your direction, then the card has a rating of at least 83. Additionally, the camera tilts to the right at the beginning of the animation.
  • For players below 83, the spotlights on the sides are turned off.

If you want to take a look at the whole thing, you can check out YouTuber Vizeh’s video (via YouTube) for an overview of the animations:

Overall, the animations are quite similar to the predecessor and very different from the times of FUT 21.
