How to get Pele Prime Icon in FIFA Mobile for free

Pele needs no introduction to the football world or players of FIFA Mobile. The icon passed away on December 29, 2022, causing grief among fans worldwide.

To commemorate his legacy, EA Sports has decided to introduce a new event in the mobile variant of FIFA. Playing the event will help gamers across the world get their hands on the 108-rated Iconic Pele card (available in three positional variants - CAM, ST, and CF).

However, since the Prime Icon card can be redeemed for free, it is no surprise that the event has created a huge buzz amongst fans of the game.
