EA FC 25 Engine+ Evolution guide: Best players to use, all upgrades, requirements, and more

EA Sports has released the EA FC 25 Engine+ Evolution in Ultimate Team, allowing gamers to provide a player of their choice with a technical boost by upgrading their Pace, Passing, and Dribbling ratings. This is a free EVO and does not require any FC Coins or FC Points to be unlocked, which should make it even more popular.

Most EVOs released during the FUTTIES and Pre-Season promos offer very large boosts to the player's Overall rating. However, the EA FC 25 Engine+ Evolution only provides a +2 boost, albeit with some amazing stat upgrades. This will make it an ideal option for EVO chains.
