The lack of supplies with FUT Hero items

Posted on 18 February, 2023 by devon

Although EA has since rectified the mistake about 25 minutes after releasing this pack FIFA 23 coins, this didn't stop millions of coins in value from being wiped off FIFA Ultimate Team as players sold the FUT Hero items in a out of panic due to the massive supply.

FUT Hero items are extremely rare players than can be found in specific packs of Ultimate Team. FUT Hero cards are presented to players who've had a major impact on the club or are a cult favourite for example, like former Manchester United midfielder Park Ji-Sung.

Because of the item's rare, they're typically quite expensive in FIFA 23 Ultimate's marketplace for transfers with some such as Yaya Toure selling in the region of 1.9 millions of FUT coins which a reputable third-party coin-selling website values at under PS400.

But EA has released this game in error and flooded the market with a large number of items and saw prices plummet rapidly and some players losing more than the equivalent of 1 million coins in value, around PS200 for purchases via a third-party.

EA has yet to provide a response on the mistake. However, the impact on the market is irreparable. The majority, if not all players are now worthless, and even though the market has improved somewhat after the demise from the pack and in turn, the lack of supplies with FUT Hero items, the loss of coins is irreversible.

Anyone who was able to buy the pack may have even more luck, however because the pack was advertised as non-tradeable (meaning it can't be sold to transfer markets) In past instances when EA has offered a pack with the wrong description it is typical for them to compensate those who purchased the pack buy FUT 23 coins. In other words, some gamers could be given the two FUT Hero cards for as little as 25000 coins.
