What a glorious FIFA year it was: Sooo many special cards in promos – now the comeback kids are back in town. If you missed a cool event, now is your chance to get expired players and add them to your team.

In the Year in Review challenge, you can get your hands on a Player Pick (1 out of 3). Which players are up for grabs? Well, all players who appeared as an SBC in Ultimate Team between March, April, and May. We show you whether the new challenge is worth it and which special cards to look out for.

Year In Review SBC Summary

So, what does this mean exactly? Well, footballers of the TOTS Teams or strong Showdown SBCs oooor badass POTM versions can be packed again. But first, here is an overview of the SBC:

Year in Review Player Pickapprox. 100K1 of 3 Player Picks

The price is so low because you have to exchange just one team to complete the challenge. To be precise, you'll need an 85 rating and 50 team chemistry. Sounds easy, is easy, and it gets even better once you see the players you can potentially pack.

Which SBC Rewards In FIFA 22 Are Worth It?

Of course (as with all player picks), you have to hope for a little luck. You have the free choice "1 out of 3" – but all three candidates can suck. We have listed some players you can hope for:

  • Ligue 1 POTM Mbappé (1,9 Millionen Coins)
  • Premier League POTM Ronaldo (700K Coins)
  • Showdown Rodrygo (360K Coins)
  • Showdown Fabinho (450K Coins)
  • Flashback Verratti (250K Coins)
  • TOTS Gvardiol (102K Coins)

Of course, there are a lot more stars that were significantly more expensive than the Year in Review challenge is now. These are just some of the highlights that would really save you some money. But of course there are many players as well that are more like what is this?

Is The Year In Review SBC In FIFA 22 Worth It?

The chance of just getting more SBC fodder is high. Those who have enough coins should complete the Review SBC. Because now at the end of the season, you don't have to save anymore, at least not so much. However, we don't recommend grinding all night, chances on Mbappé are just too low.

Pro Year in Review SBCCon Year in Review SBC
  • cool concept
  • fair price for superstar potential
  • Player Pick instead of Packs
  • many SBCs worth less than 100K

As you probably know, EA brought absolutely outstanding cards with the Shapeshifters Promo. If they're too expensive for you or if you've only got fodder so far, you can try your luck with the Year in Review SBC. We wish you the best of luck for the Player Picks!
