EA Sports has also released the brand new Elite Wildcards Guarantee pack for gamers to get their hands on some of these brand new special items.

With players like Pele, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Virgil van Dijk on offer, it comes as no surprise that gamers are eager to get their hands on as many packs as possible to try and obtain these special cards. This is the perfect opportunity for EA Sports to release a pack like the Elite Wildcards Guaranteed pack in EA FC 24, as it guarantees three players from the latest promo.

However, it also comes at a hefty cost. It is one of the most expensive packs released in the game so far, and costs 500,000 coins or 3,000 FC points. It has a limit of one per user, and will be available in the game for the next five days.

This pack includes three guaranteed Winter Wildcards players rated 86 or higher, as well as 20 rare gold player items rated 85 or higher. It also has two loan player picks, each of Winter Wildcards players and Winter Wildcards Icons. All items are untradeable and the loans are for 10 games each.

These are the specific pack probabilities of the various card types up for grabs via this pack:

  • Gold 75+ player: 100%
  • Gold 82+ player: 100%
  • Gold 90+ player: 47%
  • Triple Threat player: 18%
  • Thunderstruck player: 20%
  • Radioactive player: 7.2%
  • Winter Wildcards player: 100%
  • Winter Wildcards Icon player: 7.8%

Not only does the pack contain players from the ongoing promo, there are also re-released players from previous EA FC 24 events such as Radioactive, Triple Threat, and Thunderstruck. This includes boosted versions of players like Mbappe, Messi, and Vinicius Junior.

However, the pack is only worth purchasing for gamers willing to spend money on microtransactions and buying the pack with FC Points. 500,000 coins is a large sum in the current state of the Ultimate Team transfer market, and there are plenty of low-rated and cheap Winter Wildcards players that the pack could provide.
