My phone lit up with a single leaked image late on Thursday — a roster nobody expected and half the market already recalculating. You feel that twinge: coins to spend, squads to reshuffle, SBCs to finish. I sat back and mapped the fallout in my head.
On Reddit someone dropped a screenshot that stopped the scroll.
FC 27 Ultimate Scream Team 1 players
Leaks are messy; I cross-checked the names across X threads, FUTBIN listings and a handful of reliable leakers before writing this. This leaked roster is a loaded gun for market movers — if even half of these cards land as rumored, prices will spike and meta squads will shift overnight.
These players are the ones currently tied to Ultimate Scream Team 1 (unconfirmed until EA Sports posts the promo):
- Tolisso
- Fabinho
- Chong
- Palmer
- Kondogbia
- Ronaldo
- Szoboszlai
- Mandzukic
- Calhanoglu
- Zola
- Stam
- Salma Paralluelo
- Raphinha
All of the names above are expected to appear in packs at launch. Expect additional choices to surface via SBCs and objectives — those will be the cards that quietly shape long-term market moves. I’ll be watching FUTWIZ and FUTBIN for live price swings; you should too if you’re planning a buying or selling window.
When does Ultimate Scream Team 1 release?
EA Sports confirmed the promo art and the drop is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 23. The live times to watch are:
- 10am PDT
- 12pm CDT
- 1pm EDT
- 5pm UTC
- 6pm BST
- 7pm CEST
Packs and objectives often go live at the listed time, and the in-game store refresh can be a split-second affair — be ready.
Which players will show up in packs versus SBCs and objectives?
EA tends to split promo content: headline names in packs, plus a rotation of hero and objective/SBC-exclusive cards. A handful from the leaked list should appear in the Season 2 Pass rewards (both free and paid tiers), while the rest will spread across packs, SBCs, and timed objectives. Packs during the drop will be a carnival mirror, warping values at speed — patience or pre-planned coin moves will pay off.
I recommend bookmarking the official EA SPORTS FC channels and a reliable price tracker; your timing will determine whether you profit or panic-sell.
I refreshed the promo page as the official image went up and the countdown began.
FC 27 Ultimate Scream Team 1 release countdown
EA confirmed Team 1 will replace the second Future Stars wave when the promo activates. The page now contains a live countdown that expires the moment the content drops — that’s your cue to move.
Few of the Ultimate Scream cards will also be accessible through the Season 2 Pass — both free and paid tracks contain special items to earn, so weigh whether the paid pass matches your plans or if the market will offer a cheaper route later.
I’m tracking price shifts and SBC difficulty as the drop nears; will you buy on impulse or craft a plan that makes coins instead of costing them?
