Will Your Players Carry Over to EA SPORTS FC Mobile? A Comprehensive Guide

The transition from FIFA Mobile to EA SPORTS FC Mobile has sparked numerous questions among players, and one of the most pressing concerns revolves around player transfers. The short answer is: partially, but not in their original form. While you won’t be carrying over your entire team with their current OVR (Overall Rating), the system is designed to reward your dedication to the previous season. Let’s delve into the intricacies of how players are affected by this transition and what you can expect.

What Exactly Carries Over?

Instead of a direct transfer, EA SPORTS FC Mobile uses a system that rewards you for your efforts in the previous season. Only a specific type of player known as Pioneer Players will carry over. These are the same players from your old FIFA Mobile squad, but they will have a lower OVR in the new game. This ensures that everyone starts the new season on a relatively level playing field, while still giving a nod to the hard work players put into building their FIFA Mobile team.

Pioneer Players Explained

Pioneer Players are special versions of players from the previous FIFA Mobile season. If you’ve obtained Founders Players through exchanges in the latter parts of the FIFA Mobile season, some of those will be designated as Pioneer Players. They will transfer into EA SPORTS FC Mobile, with reduced OVR. Essentially, the most valuable players you acquired towards the end of FIFA Mobile season have a chance to become your Pioneer Players in EA SPORTS FC Mobile. They act as a starting point and provide a significant advantage over those who did not acquire these players prior to the season reset. This transfer system strikes a balance between acknowledging past progress and ensuring a competitive, fresh start for all players.

Other Items That Carry Over

Besides Pioneer Players, a few other items and elements will carry over to EA SPORTS FC Mobile:

• User Name and User ID: Your profile will remain the same, ensuring continuity in the new game.
• FC Points: If you had FIFA Points left over in FIFA 23, they will be converted to FC Points in EA SPORTS FC Mobile.
• Ban Status: Any bans incurred in the previous version will also transfer to EA SPORTS FC Mobile.

It’s crucial to understand that other aspects of your team, such as skill boosts, leaderboards rankings, friend lists, and quest progress will reset with the new season.
