FIFA 22 FUT Heroes Explained: All Players, How to Get & What They Do

With the release of FIFA 22 on the horizon, EA Sports is beginning to reveal a bunch of new information about the game, including of course, what new special cards players will be able to get their hands on in Ultimate Team. One of these new special cards are the FIFA 22 FUT Heroes, which are ex-players who had particularly iconic moments for their clubs. In this guide, we’ll run you through what these special cards do, how to get FUT Heroes players, and all FIFA 22 FUT Heroes cards announced so far.

What Are FUT Heroes Cards?

FUT Heroes are a new ‘special’ type of card in FIFA 22’s Ultimate Team mode. A mid-step between standard Gold cards and Icons — a special card type granted exclusively for the very best ex-players such as Ronaldinho and Pele — FUT Heroes “celebrate football’s most memorable players… new items that represent unforgettable moments that turned them into fan favorites.

The cards have unique league-specific chemistry, which is tied to their specific hero moment. For example, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s FUT Heroes card is based around his Champions League winner for Manchester United against Bayern Munich back in 1999, and as such has a Premier League-specific chemistry boost.

Placing the baby-faced Norwegian alongside other Premier League players will provide a green Club link to them. So, technically, you could have the current Manchester United gaffer playing alongside Manchester City’s Kevin de Bruyne and have a green link between them.
