FUT Birthday has finally launched in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team with the release of FUT Birthday Team 1 and FUT Birthday Icons Team 1.

The FUT Birthday event is now underway in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team, with two Team 1 squads available in FUT Packs now. Nearly all of the players expected to be released in the promo were leaked beforehand, but they haven't disappointed, with some incredible FUT Birthday players and Icons included. The promo was originally expected to be released last week, but the FUT Ballers promo was launched instead.

A 95-rated Ferenc Puskas, 94-rated Eric Cantona and 94-rated George Best headline the promo, all receiving boosts to either their skill moves or weak foot, or both in Cantona's case. The FUT Birthday promo consists of awarding players included a five-star weak foot or skill-moves upgrade to celebrate the anniversary of Ultimate Team.

FUT players can also expect an array of themed SBCs, Objectives, and as part of the celebration, free FUT Packs. The FIFA 23 FUT Birthday and FUT Birthday Icons Team 1 squads are now live in Ultimate Team packs and will be available until Friday, March 31 at 5.59pm GMT/ 12.59pm ET/ 9.59am PT.

FIFA leaker @FutSheriff leaked there will be two mini-releases during the FUT Birthday promo, with each mini-release seeing two versions of the same player released at the same time, one with five-star skill moves, and one with five-star weak foot.
