The 2nd Anniversary Event is coming soon to FC Mobile 26, and this year EA wants the community to be a big part of it. Based on the official announcement and some early leaks, here’s everything we know so far about the upcoming event.
Release Date
The 2nd Anniversary Event is expected to start on September 25, 2025, right after the Captains Event ends. This timing also matches the launch of FC 26 on console, so it will be a huge update for FC Mobile as well.
What’s Confirmed by EA
EA has already shared some official details about the 2nd Anniversary event:
Vanity Item Votes
You can design and vote for special Boots, Ball, and Kit that will be used in the event.
Player Vote (Coming Soon)
You will be able to pick your favorite 5 players from a list, and the top-voted ones will be included in the event.
Soundtrack Vote (Coming Soon)
EA will bring back one nostalgic track to FC Mobile 26, and the community will decide which one.
What to Expect (Leaks & Predictions)
While EA hasn’t revealed everything yet, here’s what we can expect based on leaks and community info:
Max OVR Increase
The maximum OVR is predicted to rise from 111 OVR to 113 OVR if there’s no season reset this year. That means new high-rated cards will likely debut in the Anniversary Event.
New Display UI & Features
A new interface has already been seen in the beta version released this week, so expect the Anniversary update to bring a fresh look to the game.
Minimum Specs Update
EA is expected to announce new minimum device requirements next week. Older devices will stop being supported starting September 25th.
Player Compare Feature
A new Player Compare tool is coming soon through the Extra Time web service, which will be very useful for checking stats between players. (Credits: Sappurit)
Final Thoughts
The Anniversary has always been one of the biggest events of the year in FC Mobile, and this time EA is making it even more interactive by letting the community design items and vote for players. With new features, higher OVR cards, and a fresh UI, this event will likely be the starting point for the next big chapter of the game.
Stay tuned, because more official info (including the Player Vote and Soundtrack Vote) will be revealed in the coming weeks.

In my opinion , I think resetting the game and your current squad is not a good idea.
Some people build a strong team and it took them years and months to build the team they have currently. Resetting everything will be a loss for everyone.
I love my team I’ve built and I genuinely don’t want it to go to waste. All that time , the money spent and packing unbelievable icons meant a lot to me.
I truly don’t want me team to be taken away from me
As far as I know, the game will not be resetting this year, and the OVR will go up to 113.
Please can I update FC Mobile on September 25, 2025, please EA Sports 🙏
When I downloaded the game they were showing me guest option only not the sign in option pls fix that.
Is the OVR increase in prodigies permanent? I’m hesitant to upgrade my Pavlovic to 25 as I’m not sure if it will remain base 102 or decrease back to 100 eventually. Thanks
It’s permanent.
When Will The 101 David De Gea Card Come In The Anniversary Event…
Also Where Will He Be Available…?
Hi,
Is it only the Prodigies Players shown in the Gallery that can have an OVR+1 upgrade or it works for all Prodigies Players ?
Does the OVR+1 upgrade work for untradeable Prodigies Players ?
Thx
I think it works for all Prodigies Players, including the untradable ones.
