Discover the first event of the FUT season with Ones To Watch, for which we already know the release date and the list of OTW players for FIFA 23. A usual meeting place for FIFA Ultimate Team players, Ones To Watch (players to watch) includes stars who changed clubs during the summer transfer window, with the latter getting special OTW cards. Note that these cards have the same overall rating as their Gold version, but they have the potential to improve throughout the season. Additionally, OTW cards this year will be limited to a single team, with a team 1 and a one-week mini-release.
Update : Updated from Sunday October 2 at 19 p.m.

EA will offer a team of ten cards as well as a mini-release of 3-5 additional cards during the weekend of the OTW event.

FIFA 23 Ones to Watch Changes
Basically, OTWs work as follows: an OTW card is a player who changed teams during the transfer window. Its stats can evolve each time the card receives a boost via a selection in the Team of the Week (TOTW) or in Man Of The Match (MOTM).
There will be several changes this year to how OTW cards work. First of all, the number of cards will be reduced a bit with a single team and a mini-release. Thus, the cards will be available according to the following rotation:
- La Team 1 (about 11 cards) from September 30 to October 7 at 19 p.m.
- La mini-release (3 to 5 cards) from October 2 to 7 at 19 p.m.
Note that DCEs will also be planned during the week, with in particular a first DCE during the early period of the game (between September 26 and September 30).
In addition, an automatic upgrade system has been added: Wins to Watch. From September 30, teams on OTW cards will be able to get a one-time +1 boost, if they win at least 3 of their next 8 league matches. Players do not need to participate in encounters for wins to be counted.
Here are the details about the start date and the list of players for the Ones To Watch OTW event, for the FUT mode of FIFA 23. You can find all the news and our FIFA 23 guides on w88s.vip.
