FC 26 TOTY Honourable Mention Heroes Are Here; Know Them All

FC 26 TOTY Honourable Mention Heroes have officially arrived as part of the Team of the Year celebrations. These new cards offer a new and potent line of upgraded Hero cards based on legendary careers for all Ultimate Team players.

They reward long-time fans with boosted stats, improved playstyles, and strong chemistry links, all tied to the biggest promo of the year. Here is everything you need to know about the EA FC 26 TOTY Honourable Mention Heroes.

What are FC 26 TOTY Honourable Mention Upgrades?

FC 26 TOTY Honourable Mention Heroes are special upgraded versions of the Classic XI Hero cards. The players included in this category are all examples of how a player changed the course of history for both their teams and throughout their leagues, even if they were not part of the main Team of the Year squad.

Each Classic XI Hero card has a starting OVR of 88 but will receive a one-time, automatic upgrade to OVR 90 as soon as the Team of the Year has begun. This allows for improvements in various attributes, as well as the introduction of the blue and gold theme that is typically associated with TOTY-style cards, which improves their performance against other similar players for each of their key stats.

Honourable Mention Heroes do not have a voting component associated with them, as these cards are awarded through a campaign that requires you to log in, and the cards will automatically receive their upgrades when the Team of the Year campaign starts.
