Nofil KhanEA SPORTS has officially launched Season 9: Spain, Portugal & Morocco '30 in FC 26 Ultimate Team. With a fresh wave of FUTTIES icons, Festival of Football (FoF) stars, and top-tier Evolutions, the new Season Pass offers plenty to grind for. But with the Premium tier costing 1000 FC Points or 500,000 Coins, you need to know if the extra investment is actually justified for your Ultimate Team.
Premium Pass Rewards
When you unlock the Premium tier of the Season 9 Pass, you instantly gain access to a parallel reward track alongside the free path. Keep in mind that whenever you acquire the Premium Pass, all rewards for previously completed levels are unlocked automatically.
Here are the guaranteed Premium rewards available across the levels:
- FoF: National Pride David Raya
- FoF: Phenoms Warren Zaïre-Emery
- FoF: National Pride Maximiliano Araújo
- FoF: National Pride Nico González
- FoF: National Pride Mariona
- FUTTIES Hero Lúcio
- FUTTIES Icon Jairzinho
- 16x Tradable Packs
- 2x Evolutions
How to get the Premium Season Pass for Free?
You can unlock the Premium Season Pass without spending 1000 FC Points or 500,000 Coins by earning the Premium Season Pass Token from the free track. That token is awarded at Level 22 in the regular Season Pass, and you can redeem it for the current Premium Pass or save it for Season 10. When you do unlock the Premium tier, all rewards from earlier levels are granted immediately, so you won’t miss anything you already passed on.
Season 9 Premium Evolutions
The Season 9 Premium Pass includes two powerful Evolution options designed to push your squad toward endgame quality.
| Unlock Level | Evolution Name | Max OVR Requirement | Key Boosts & Restrictions |
|---|---|---|---|
Level 2 | Max 94 (Cannot be CB, Max 10 PS) | +3 OVR (Cap 97), 5x Base PS, Repeatable 5x | |
Level 28 | Max 95 (Max 4 PS+) | Adds Rapid PlayStyle+ (Capped at 5 PS+) |
Unstoppable Force (Level 2)
Available at Level 2, the Unstoppable Force Evolution is a highly repeatable upgrade path. It allows you to boost up to five eligible players (max 94 OVR, excluding CBs) by +3 OVR, capping them at a 97 rating.
It also adds 5 Base PlayStyles to round them out, making it a great way to elevate your favorite club legends.
Rapid+ (Level 28)
As we hit the FUTTIES stage of the year, maximizing PlayStyles+ is essential. The Level 28 Rapid+ Evolution allows you to add the Rapid PlayStyle+ to a player, bringing their total up to a maximum of 5 PlayStyles+.
This is perfect for turning a 95 OVR winger or attacker into a truly elite threat down the flanks.
Is It Worth It?
The Season 9 Premium Pass provides excellent value, especially with FUTTIES Hero Lúcio and FUTTIES Icon Jairzinho leading the pack. Both of these items come with 5 PlayStyles+, making them immediate starters for most squads. The inclusion of 16 tradable packs also offers a solid route to making your coins back if you choose to buy the pass with 500K coins.
Between the massive player rewards and the highly repeatable Unstoppable Force Evolution, the Premium Pass is a strong recommendation. However, if you are short on coins or points, grinding to Level 22 on the free track to earn the Premium Season Pass Token is an incredibly smart alternative.
