The next big promotional event in FIFA 21 - Ultimate Team is called 'Rulebreakers'. This mysterious event Halloween themed looks like it will replace the popular "Ultimate Scream" event.
Although the idea seems to be similar to those of past years, it could instead reserve several interesting twists.
We assume that this event will work in a very similar way to the Ultimate Scream one, bringing huge boosts to some selected cards in FUT 21.
Being the first big promotion of the year, which then introduces new enhanced cards to the FUT ecosystem, those Rulebreakers are definitely worth keeping an eye on!
FIFA 20's Ultimate Scream event saw huge updates for big names like Ibrahimovic, Aguero, Muller, Rodriguez, and many more.
We can also expect the usual achievements and SBCs to be added with special power-up players.

What are the FIFA 21 Rulebreakers?
These are enhanced cards. Players will then get stat updates that they usually can't get with classic upgrades.
Over the course of the promotion, we should expect a variety of content to be added:
- 2 Rulebreakers teams
- SBC player Rulebreakers
- Rulebreakers goals
- Halloween themed SBC
- Promotional packages
I Are Rulebreakers and Ultimate Scream the same thing?
We believe they are not exactly the same. This promo replaces the Scream Team in an effort to freshen up the Halloween event.
FIFA 21 Rulebreakers release date
The Rulebreakers cards will arrive in FIFA 21 this Friday, October 23 at 19pm. And they should be obtainable for roughly 00 weeks.
Team 1 will arrive in the first half of the event. It will be available until October 30th at 18:59 pm.
Starting November 6, Team 2 will replace Team 1.
FIFA 21 Rulebreakers team
The main strength of this promotion is represented by the Rulebreakers Team.
The updates of these players will be nothing short of crazy.
As we can see from the Ultimate Scream teams of recent years, some players of the caliber of Aguero achieved +8 in speed and physique compared to the base card. Ibrahimovic even received a +29 speed.
Rulebreakers Predictions
Here are our predictions for the Rulebreakers Team:
Rulebreakers player SBC
We can also expect a substantial number of SBCs to be made available during the promotion. Last year there were several SBCs dedicated to the likes of: Milner, Ozil, Jesus Navas and a Piqué item that became highly sought after.
Halloween themed SBC
There will certainly also be Halloween themed SBCs, containing cosmetic packages and prizes, and for this year, items for stadium customization.
Promotional packages
As usual, a huge amount of promo packs are released during promotional events. Some of these will last for a few minutes, such as the 50k and 100k ones. So always keep an eye on the shop.
