EXTRA TIME UPDATE - NEW PICKS AND ADJUSTMENTS
EA Sports FC Mobile has rolled out a fresh update for Extra Time this Thursday UTC alongside the global launch of the FOOTYVERSE event. This week’s Extra Time update brings new picks, adjusted OVR ranges, and updated probabilities, giving players more opportunities to grab high-rated cards from recent promos like Ballon d’Or and Anniversary.
Let’s go through everything that’s been added and changed in Extra Time this week.
New Ballon d’Or Pick Added
EA has added a brand-new Ballon d’Or Pick to the Extra Time section. This is the major highlight of the update, featuring a chance to obtain some of the highest-rated players currently available in the game.
Cost: 15,000 Extra Time Tokens
Limit: 1
Available Cards: 108-113 OVR range
Highest Possible Reward: 113 OVR Ballon d’Or Cards
Probability: 1% for 113 OVR cards (full OVR range probability displayed in info)
All cards are Untradable
The pack includes a mix of Ballon d’Or event cards and previous event cards, but the top-tier 113 OVR items are exclusive to Ballon d’Or. Interestingly, no 113 OVR Anniversary cards appear in this pick, confirming that the Ballon d’Or cards are the ultimate chase reward for this selection.
New Badge Pick - Focused on Anniversary Event Cards
Another exciting addition is the Badge Pick, which mainly features cards from the previous Anniversary event.
Cost: 1,000 Extra Time Tokens
Limit: 5 per day
Available Cards: 104-113 OVR Anniversary Cards
All cards are Untradable
Each OVR probability is clearly listed in the pick’s information section. Apart from giving players another chance to pack Anniversary cards, this pick also helps in boosting the Anniversary Badge EXP. If you pack cards you didn’t previously own, you’ll progress faster toward upgrading your badge level.
This makes the Badge Pick a great option for players looking to improve their Anniversary Badge while still getting decent rewards.
Star Pick Adjusted - Higher OVR Range
The Star Pick remains in Extra Time with the same cost as before, but EA has improved the OVR range and reward pool.
Cost: 10,000 Extra Time Tokens
Previous OVR Range: 107-111
New OVR Range: 107-113
Added Cards: Ballon d’Or and Anniversary cards
The addition of Ballon d’Or and Anniversary cards gives this pick more value and variety. The probability rates have also been updated to reflect the new OVR range.
Shard Pick Updated - Increased OVR Range
The Shard Pick has also received an update, expanding its potential rewards and OVR caps.
Cost: Same as before
Updated Ranges
Untradable Pulls: 109-113 OVR (previously 107-111)
Tradable Pulls: 104-108 OVR (previously 102-106)
With the OVR range extended, this pick now provides a better chance to earn high-value shards and untradable cards that can contribute to team upgrades or exchanges.
Final Thoughts
This week’s Extra Time update is one of the best in recent weeks, especially for players saving up their tokens. The introduction of the Ballon d’Or Pick offers a legitimate shot at the game’s top cards, while the Badge Pick helps maintain value for Anniversary-themed rewards.
By expanding OVR ranges and improving pick probabilities, EA has made Extra Time more rewarding for both casual and active players. Whether you’re hunting for high OVR Ballon d’Or cards or aiming to upgrade your Anniversary Badge, this update has something for everyone.
