FUT Heroes are some of the most overpowered special items in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team. Not only are these extremely impressive on the virtual pitch, they also provide useful chemistry to other players in the squad. However, with Base Hero items having been rendered redundant in the current meta, World Cup and Fantasy FUT Hero cards have taken center stage.

The latest Player Pick SBC in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team allows gamers to obtain one of these incredible items. The pick offers a choice between three FIFA World Cup or Fantasy FUT Heroes, eclipsing the rewards offered by earlier iterations of the player-pick concept. However, the SBC also warrants a rather hefty price.

World Cup Heroes were introduced to the game in November and have retained their viability ever since. Meanwhile, Fantasy FUT Hero cards were added to the game much later but come with superior boosts and dynamic ratings. Moreover, the latter receives upgrades based on the performances of certain teams in real-life games, making them extremely overpowered in FIFA 23.

These are the two types of cards that gamers can get their hands on by completing the latest 87+ World Cup or Fantasy FUT Hero SBC.
