Cornerstones are the key players around whom teams are built, forming the foundation of your club’s success in Football Ultimate Team. These essential players provide boosted Chemistry links, receiving one additional Club link, which helps you create stronger connections between teammates. This enhanced Chemistry not only improves player performance on the pitch but also gives you greater flexibility and possibilities when building your squad, allowing for more strategic lineups and tactical combinations throughout your Club.
In addition to their Chemistry benefits, Cornerstones players play a central role in the new Ultimate Gauntlet mode, making its debut in FC 26. Ultimate Gauntlet challenges you to push your squad depth to the limit, testing how well your Cornerstone players perform in high-pressure situations and against increasingly difficult opponents. By leveraging their boosted Chemistry and key abilities, you can maximize your chances of success in this intense and rewarding mode.
Throughout the two-week Cornerstones campaign, two specially themed teams of players will be released. The first team becomes available on the FC 26 release date, September 26, while the second team will launch one week later. Each team includes unique Cornerstones players that offer distinct Chemistry links and attributes, providing opportunities to strengthen your squad in new ways. By participating in the campaign, you can acquire these players through SBCs, Objectives, Rush, and Evolutions, ensuring that your Football Ultimate Team is well-equipped to compete at the highest level.
The Cornerstones campaign represents one of the most exciting opportunities for both new and veteran Ultimate Team players. Whether you are building your first squad or looking to enhance an already competitive team, the addition of these pivotal players, combined with the challenges of Ultimate Gauntlet, offers a fresh layer of strategy and depth to your gameplay. Don’t miss your chance to secure these key players and fully optimize your Football Ultimate Team in FC 26.
