How can I get EA FC 25 RTTF players?
Here’s how you can obtain FC 25 Road to the Final players in Ultimate Team:
1. Buy RTTF Players on the Transfer Market
A guaranteed way to get RTTF players is via the in-game transfer market. Unfortunately, because of their high ratings, they are in high demand and come at a premium price, so be prepared to spend big. We recommend waiting at least a little while until more Road to the Final cards are in circulation to find slightly lower prices.
2. Complete Squad Building Challenges (SBCs)
A cheaper way to get RTTF players is by completing Squad Building Challenges (SBCs), which earn you player packs to open. During the Road to the Final event, watch out for special SBCs that could reward you with packs containing RTTF cards. Maximize your chances by completing as many SBCs as possible.
3. Buy Packs with FC Coins or FC Points
If the transfer market and SBCs don’t appeal to you, you can always buy packs directly using FC Coins or FC Points. Coins are earned by playing matches or trading items, while FC Points can be purchased.
Startselect offers official FC Points for Xbox and official PlayStation Store cards that can be used to get FC Points in the PlayStation Store. Pick up a card for your preferred platform and instantly start opening packs!
