FIFA 23 Out of Position promo explained

From the name of the promo, it’s easy to see how Out of Position is a new version of FIFA’s Shapeshifters under a revamped name. Shapeshifters in FIFA 22 literally delivered out-of-position players to Ultimate Team.

While each player comes with a position change, many also come with alternate position changes. This further expands on the idea of delivering boosted players out of their traditional positions.

EA also confirmed that “You’ll also find new Out Of Position players released periodically throughout the FUT 23 season.” This is great news as Out of Position players could arrive via SBC or Objective throughout FIFA 23.

FIFA 23 Out of Position release date

FIFA 23‘s Out of Position Ultimate Team promo started on October 28 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM UK.

After leaks teased the new promo, it was confirmed via the Ultimate Team loading screen. It remains to be seen if Out of Position will feature one or two teams, but we’ll have the latest details for you as they’re revealed.
