How to get FIFA 22 RTTK card upgrades explained

There are two ways to earn RTTK card upgrades: a player’s card upgrades if the player’s club reaches the Knockout Stage of their European competition and they can get a potential second upgrade if they win 3 of their next 4 Group Stage matches.

Here’s a quick breakdown of how the system works in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.

  • +1 upgrade for reaching the knockout stage
  • +1 upgrade for winning 3 out of 4 matches in their respective competition

So if you have a player for a top team, then there’s a good chance that the card will get a +2 upgrade after the group stage.
