Nofil KhanThe highly anticipated Trophy Titans promo has officially arrived in Ultimate Team for FC 26. Celebrating the most decorated Icons and Heroes in football history, this event completely abandons active players to focus entirely on the game’s legendary roster.
With massive upgrades, a game-changing 3 PlayStyle+ meta shift, and incredible new objective-based Evolutions, here is your complete guide to everything available right now in the Trophy Titans promo.
The Trophy Titans Player Types
First introduced in FUT 23, the Trophy Titans promo is a pure celebration of the massive domestic and European trophies lifted by Icons and Heroes during their primes.
EA has introduced three distinct versions of these legendary cards into the pack and SBC pool:
- Prime Trophy Titans: The absolute pinnacle of the promo. These versions feature incredible stats and introduce a widespread three PlayStyle+ meta for Icons and Heroes.
- Junior Trophy Titans: Slightly lower-rated versions of the same legends. These "Base" event items ensure that more accessible versions of these fan-favorite players are still obtainable on the transfer market or through objectives for a lower coin budget.
- Trophy Titan Moments: Special edition cards celebrating one specific, legendary match in a Titan's career.
Team 1 is headlined by jaw-dropping Prime versions of Zinedine Zidane, Alex Morgan, Ruud Gullit, and Francesco Totti—all featuring three elite PlayStyle+ combinations that immediately shift the Weekend League power curve.
Formation Excellence: The New PlayStyle+ Evolutions
The biggest addition to the Trophy Titans promo isn't just the players in packs—it is the introduction of the Formation Excellence objective group.
For the first time in FC 26, players can earn Evolutions that grant a second PlayStyle+ to players rated up to 91 OVR. To earn these highly sought-after Evolution consumables, you must win matches using specific, strict formations.
Here are the four Formation Excellence Evolutions available to unlock:
- Win with a 3-5-2: Unlocks the Anticipate+ Evolution.
- Win with a 4-3-3 (4): Unlocks the Technical+ Evolution.
- Win with a 4-2-2-2: Unlocks the Finesse Shot+ Evolution.
- Win with a 4-3-2-1: Unlocks the Quick Step+ Evolution.

The Legendary Legacy Live Event
Launched alongside the promo is the Legendary Legacy live tournament. This is a 3-round daily tournament featuring shortened match halves.
Players are given 10 entries per day and must build a squad with strict restrictions: a maximum of four players rated 89+ OVR, and zero players rated 93+ OVR. Just like the Formation Excellence objectives, you are required to play these matches in a strict 3-5-2 formation.
Completing the Legendary Legacy objective groups will reward you with massive packs, exclusive Evolutions, and a guaranteed 1 of 2 Trophy Titans Team 1 Player Pick. (If you need help building a sub-89 rated squad for this event, check out our 3-5-2 Event Guide for the best "Cheap Beasts" to use!)
