Table of Contents
The Season Theme
Season 4 pays tribute to Italy ’90 and the tournament-defining moments that shaped modern international football.
Expect event content that spotlights both Italy and Germany, plus World Tour-style rewards that reflect the host and winning nations — current Player Items, historic pieces and themed cosmetics that echo the era.
Gold Standard Cup
The Gold Standard Cup brings golden-goal knockout football back to EA FC 26 Football Ultimate Team (FUT).
This is short, high-stakes matchplay: strike first and complete the Cup Objectives to claim valuable rewards such as Evolution Consumables, cosmetics, packs and more.
The format encourages risk-taking and quick tactical adjustments — it’s ideal for players who thrive on one-off, do-or-die matches.
Key rewards: Evolution Consumables (to advance chained Evolutions), themed cosmetics, and pack rewards that help fund SBCs and squad upgrades.
Silver Superstars Returns
World Tour Silver Superstars is back for Season 4, celebrating stars from Italy ’90 by rewarding historic silver Player Items.
Build a competitive silver squad, take it on the road, and unlock themed Player Item rewards across the season.
This is a great pathway for managers who prefer value-driven play and want to capitalise on SBC and reward synergies.
New Season Ladder & Premium Pass
A fresh Season Ladder provides a new progression track with free and premium tiers.
As you climb the Standard Ladder you’ll unlock Player Items tied to Italy and Germany, including modern names and historical figures:
- Current player highlights on the ladder: Guglielmo Vicario and Sjoeke Nüsken.
- Historic inclusion: Italian legend Daniele De Rossi appears as a Season reward at select tiers.
The Premium Pass accelerates premium-only rewards and delivers higher-value items such as SP Consumables, tradeable Packs, and guaranteed Player Items. Premium Pass owners also have access to a special Hero reward near the top of the ladder.
Purchase options: Premium Pass costs 500,000 Coins or 1,000 FC Points.
Progressing the Premium Ladder nets a mixture of tradeable Packs, SP Consumables, current Player Items (examples: Laura Freigang, Moise Kean), and special Evolution Consumables.
New Additions
Cosmetics & Vanity items for multiple modes
Season Pass 4 introduces a holiday-themed cosmetic set and vanity items that apply to Player Career, Clubs and Ultimate Team:
- Player Career & Clubs: Holiday Header Left Arm Snowflake Tattoo, Holiday Header White Background.
- Clubs: Holiday Header Tri Color Blue Glossy Boots, Holiday Header Blue Glossy Gloves, Holiday Header White Left Elbow Sleeve, Holiday Header Blue Left Elbow Sleeve, Holiday Header Blue Padded Face Mask, Holiday Header Blue Glossy Cap.

ICONs & Heroes bundled into Season Pass 4
Season Pass 4 expands Manager Career and ICON pools with several new ICON and Hero bundles, distributed across Season activities and Premium rewards:
- Bundle 1: Claudio Marchisio, Louisa Nécib, Ricardo Quaresma, Nwankwo Kanu, Mario Gómez, and Iván Córdoba.
- Bundle 2: Mia Hamm, Eric Cantona, and Pablo Aimar.
- Bundle 3: Giorgio Chiellini, Lothar Matthäus, Edwin van der Sar, Célia Šašić, Juan Román Riquelme, and Tomas Brolin.

- Bundle 5: Roberto Baggio, Rudi Völler, and Jari Litmanen.
These ICONs and Heroes are usable in Manager Career, Manager Live, and Team with ICONs, giving both narrative depth and on-field performance value.
Hints & Tips
Decide your focus: If you want ICONs/Heroes, invest in the Premium Pass; if you prefer steady coin gains and SBC fodder, the free Ladder still offers value.
Target Evolutions early: Evolution Consumables appear across mid-tier objectives — claim them early to reduce long-term SBC cost.
Use the Gold Standard Cup to flex: If you’re confident in knockout play, the Cup can deliver Evolution items faster than standard objectives.
Silver squads for SBC synergy: If your club balance is tight, leverage Silver Superstars to earn tradable currency and themed items without high market spend.
Budget FC Points vs Coins: 1,000 FC Points can be bought with real currency; weigh the convenience against long-term coin economy if you play frequently.
Final Whistle
EA FC 26 Season Pass 4 is a well-rounded season that blends nostalgia with competitive design: Italy ’90 theme content, a tense Gold Standard Cup, the return of Silver Superstars, a new Season Ladder and a Premium Pass that pushes for ICON and Hero rewards.
Whether you chase the Rudi Völler Hero, farm Evolutions through the Cup, or construct historic silver squads, Season 4 offers multiple pathways to meaningful progression and memorable matches.
