EA Sports FC 24 "Greats of the Game" is the current EA FC 24 event, based around football legends and icons. Dynamic icon and hero cards with players making their mark in the world of football have been featured in the GOTG event. In this event, just like in Make Your Mark, players will be upgradeable.
Regarding the event's duration and upgrade mechanics, the event is online as soon the GOTG Team 2 came online, which was on Friday, June 28, 2024.
Very different from many of the other EA FC 24 events, the upgrades for these cards will be solely on individual performance for their nations. The more goals their players scores for their nations on EURO 2024 or Copa America, the more upgrades they get.
