This article lists the potential candidates for the Prime Heroes promo.

While the Team of the Season fever has already created buzz among the FC community, the popular data miners have already leaked something interesting. And surprisingly, it's not what the community is expecting for the title. With the World Cup 2026 season approaching, it's quite evident that fans will expect a WC-related promo to solidify their Ultimate Team even more.

According to the leakers, however, the upcoming promo is likely to focus on the Hero cards. On that note, let's discuss everything we have on EA FC 26 Prime Heroes Event Leaks.

The Hero cards have always been special in everyone's Ultimate Team. It's mainly because of the instant three-star chemistry regardless of the surrounding player cards. And now the recent FC 26 Prime Heroes Event Leaks from @FutSheriff have certainly sparked interest among everyone.

While there's no official release date revealed, there's a high chance of it being released right after the ongoing TOTS one. And judging from the promo's depth, it should last for around a week at max. That, however, is too early to judge.

FC 26 Prime Heroes Predictions: Check Who's Coming

Even though there's no official information, @FutSheriff didn't hold back on making their part of FC 26 Prime Heroes Predictions. According to the creator, the upgraded Hero cards are likely to mirror the attributes from their prime.

From what we've seen on the concept cards, it's highly likely that each Prime Hero card will feature three to four desirable Playstyles+ from the current meta. That said, here are the predictions so far:

Player Name	Expected OVR	Position	Country
David Ginola	96	LM	France
Lucio	95	CB	Brazil
