This year, each time you watch a FIFA 21 Global Series event, you will win tokens that can be used to exchange by in-game rewards.
FIFA 21 Global Series Swaps
With a new regional tournament structure, there are more ways to tune in and support your favourite players and teams as they compete for glory and a chance to qualify for their Regional Playoffs. With over $4.35 Million USD in prizing available across the EA and FIFA events, EA’s Global Series competitors have more to play for than ever before.
Make sure you tune into the star-studded FIFA 21 Challenge on October 29th featuring footballers like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Giovanni Reyna teaming up with FIFA pros like Tekkz and Gravesen. A total of four teams will participate in the last FIFA 21 Global Series pre-season event.
Over the last few seasons, EA have offered viewership rewards to select viewers who link their Twitch and EA accounts and watch one of our eligible FIFA Global Series broadcasts. For the FIFA 21 Global Series, they went back to the drawing board to figure out an innovative way in which they could make the viewership rewards more straightforward and rewarding for FGS fans.
The FIFA Global Series Swaps will offer one guaranteed FGS Player Token Item during each eligible event to a viewer who watches 60 or more minutes of that event to those who tune in and watch 60 minutes or more of any of eligible broadcasts. Once you earn at least two separate tokens from two separate events, you can then redeem your FGS Player token items for pack rewards in repeatable SBCs.
How to Win Rewards
Let’s explain how you can win rewards by watching the FIFA 21 Global Series. First, link your Twitch and EA accounts on ea.com/twitchlinking and watch eligible FIFA 21 Global Series Events on Twitch for at least 60 minutes. You will receive one FGS Player Token Item in-game for each event you watch. Then, go to SBC > Swaps and redeem your FGS Player Token items in-game for FGS Pack Rewards.
