EA Sports has released the EA FC 25 No Nonsense Evolution in Ultimate Team, allowing gamers to upgrade center-backs from various tiers of English club football. This includes defenders from the Premier League, BWSL, or EFL Championship. No Nonsense is a free EVO and does not require any FC Coins or FC Points to be unlocked, which will likely make it even more popular amongst gamers.
This is the final EVO to be released during the Premier League Team of the Season event. Not only does the EA FC 25 No Nonsense Evolution offer some massive upgrades, especially for a free Evolution, but it also transforms a defender of your choice into a TOTS item.
