The event takes place from November 17 through December 6 and will feature in-game Challenges and Rewards, a Fan Clash Event, a New Nike-Themed Limited Time Mode, and Item Shop content inspired by some of football’s biggest stars!
The Nike FC Cup spans multiple weeks with content being released on November 17, followed by another release on November 30. The content will release as follows:
Beginning November 17:
New Challenges and Rewards - The Nike FC Cup Event will feature 10 in-game Challenges to earn rewards including Country Player Banners and Country Decals. These challenges will be available to complete until December 6.
Fan Clash: Nike FC Cup - Players will choose from 40 Country teams to represent by signing up on the Fan Clash website (launching on November 17) and earn points to get their team to the top of the Fan Clash leaderboard!

Beginning November 30:
Nike FC Showdown LTM - A new Nike-themed limited-time mode will be available set on a new Nike-themed version of Champion’s Field. It is a 4v4 mode that gives players a more soccer-like feeling by replacing the standard ball with a Nike ball, making the max speed faster, and lowering the ball’s bounciness. This LTM will be available until December 14.
