Things are moving quickly in FIFA 23 at the moment: While the brand-new FUT Ballers promo is starting on March 17, 2023, the traditional birthday celebration of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT), FUT Birthday, is coming up as well.
We’ve already heard some rumors about how this year’s edition of FUT’s anniversary will look like.
FIFA Ultimate Team will celebrate its 14th birthday in 2023, being first launched on March 19, 2009. With the upcoming FUT Ballers promo being confirmed to run from March 17 to at least March 24, FUT Birthday is going to be a bit late to the party – or is it?
Here’s everything we know about FIFA 23 FUT Birthday.
FIFA 23 FUT Birthday: start date
FUT Ballers is going to run until March 24, 2023, and it's now confirmed that FUT Birthday will begin right after that promo ends, which is Friday, March 24, 2023, at 11am PT / 2pm ET / 6pm GMT / 7pm CET.
However, an important part of FUT Birthday has already started on March 20, 2023: FUT Birthday Token Swaps.
