The highly anticipated Road to the Knockouts (RTTK) event, the second Ultimate Team extravaganza of EA FC 24, is almost at our doorstep, poised to coincide with the global launch of the game.
The Deets
EA FC 24's worldwide release is scheduled for today, Friday, September 29, but avid players who have pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition or are subscribed to EA Play were granted early access, which commenced last Friday. This early access period introduced an exclusive promo called "Nike Mad Ready." In this promo, five esteemed EA ambassadors received new in-game player items. However, it's worth noting that these items didn't provide any stat boosts; instead, they featured revamped card designs and dynamic images. While the Mad Ready promo was somewhat underwhelming, it served as a precursor to the more substantial promotions in store for EA FC 24.
The inaugural proper promo for EA FC 24, "RTTK" or Road to the Knockouts, is set to launch this week. RTTK is centered around the UEFA Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League. Players participating in this promo will receive upgrades to their special player items if their respective teams make advancements in the group stages or achieve a certain number of victories.
Additionally, we've received confirmation regarding the upgrades for EA FC 24's RTTK promo. Players will receive a +1 TOTW upgrade if their team secures victories in two remaining group stage games, and an additional +1 upgrade if they advance to the knockout stages.
The Players we know of so far
This Promo will be led by Erling Haaland and Victor Osimhen, but the following players have been leaked and confirmed through concept images in the game menus.

It has to be better...
Again, the Mad Ready Promo wasn't really anything to get excited about. RTTK on the other hand, is always one of the better promos during the cycle. Enjoy ripping those packs you've saved all week. Good Luck everyone!
