The FC 24 Nike Mad Ready promo is the first in Ultimate Team this season. This is a brand-new event in the game mode, and it is exclusive to players who pre-order FC 24. This is the first promo of its kind in terms of exclusivity, and as the first for the new franchise, you won’t want to miss out.

FC 24 early access is here, with the full FC 24 release date set to follow a week later. If you are looking to get in the game as soon as possible, check out the FC 24 Web App for all the details on how to manage your club on the go.

Find out everything you need to know about the Nike Mad Ready promo in FC 24 Ultimate Team below, including the release date, all the cards, and leaks. 

FC 24 Nike Mad Ready release date 

The FC 24 Nike Mad Ready release date was September 22. This is the first promo of the season, and it went live at the usual time of 1pm ET / 6pm BST. The campaign will run for one week only.

This new Nike campaign will be the first-ever early access only promo, meaning it is exclusively available to fans who have access to the game before the worldwide release. To gain early access, you must have pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition of FC 24, or have an EA Play subscription. 

Among the bonuses you get for pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition, you will receive a Nike Ultimate Team Campaign Loan Player Item (24 matches), and a Nike x EA Sports FC Ultimate Team Kit. 

Nike Mad Ready all cards 

Thanks to promotional material put out by EA, we knew all five players who would gain a Nike Mad Ready card! Each player has received a cosmetically upgraded version with the same Attributes as their base versions.

Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez (OVR 83) and Juventus winger Federico Chiesa (OVR 84) were the first players to become “Mad Ready”. It was then revealed via a trailer for the promo that Virgil van Dijk (OVR 89), Sam Kerr (OVR 90), and Alexia Putellas (OVR 91) would also be included.
