FIFA 23 pre-order bonus - Release dates, bonus items, and more

sportskeeda.com:

Every pre-order of FIFA 23 comes with extra items for players that they won't receive when the full game gets released on September 30. Some of these are footballer cards that they can use in making their FIFA 23 Ultimate Team squad. Other resources can be used to take advantage of someone's in-game journey.

The pre-order bonuses are rewarded to players as a token of appreciation by EA Sports. After all, the purchases are made much before the game gets released, and it's a show of faith from the buyers. Naturally, there's no shortage of rewards this time around as well. The Standard and Ultimate Edition have several bonus items that players can use in different game modes.

Aside from that, some pre-order bonus items will be handed out to players who ordered the game before its launch. These items have different release dates within the game, as some will be handed out later than others. Let's look at all the items a FIFA 23 player is entitled to if they pre-ordered the game.

One can acquire two available game editions for their respective platforms - Standard and Ultimate. The Ultimate Edition might be pricier than the Standard, but it has several perks. One such perk is the pre-order bonuses that come with the costlier version of the game.

One exclusive item is the FUT World Cup Heroes card that Ultimate Edition owners will get with their copy. The card falls in the promo, which would go live around the middle of November to celebrate the inception of the FIFA World Cup in real life. The Heroes card will likely be available in packs as well as there could be Squad Building Challenges themed around them.

Anyone who pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition before August 28, 2022, will get an untradable version of a FUT World Cup
