FIFA 22 TOTS: Release date & schedule, Team of the Season explained, player predictions

Team of the Season is a fan favorite Ultimate Team promo and it’s finally arrived in FIFA 22. TOTS highlights the top players of the 2021/2022 club football season and we’ve got everything you need to know about the promo.

TOTY and TOTS are widely regarded as the two most exciting Ultimate Team promos of the year. If you’re new to FIFA, you may be wondering what sets these two promos apart.

Team of the Year celebrates the best of the calendar year, while Team of the Season uses the club football season to judge the top players in the world. TOTY only focuses on a starting eleven plus a few honorable mentions, but TOTS introduces a ton of cards across all of FIFA 22’s major leagues.

Here’s what you need to know about the biggest promo of the year, including an official release schedule and a look at which players could be involved.

FIFA 22 Team of the Season explained

Team of the Season is the longest-lasting Ultimate Team promo of the year. The promo begins by highlighting two leagues at a time. Each week new leagues will be the focus of Ultimate Team players as valuable cards get added to packs.

The leagues in the spotlight remain in packs for a week until they’re replaced by the following leagues. However, the final squad in packs is expected to be the “Ultimate TOTS” which combines the best players from each of the previously released TOTS squads.

As you may have already noticed, some major squads are decided by fan vote, while others are chosen by EA.
