Ultimate Gauntlet 13 has officially arrived in FC 26, giving players another opportunity to earn valuable packs, Evolution items, and a guaranteed promotional card. This limited-time event is part of the Ultimate Team experience and rewards players simply for participating and completing a variety of match-based objectives. Whether you are grinding for better FC 26 Players or looking to stock up on packs that could increase your FC 26 Coins value through tradable rewards, the Ultimate Gauntlet 13 challenge is definitely worth your time.

 

In this guide, we will break down how the event works, the requirements for completing it, and every reward you can earn along the way.

 

What Is Ultimate Gauntlet 13 in FC 26

 

Ultimate Gauntlet 13 is a special objective set in FC 26 Ultimate Team where players compete in a series of matches to unlock rewards. The structure is simple: each round requires you to play three matches and try to win as many as possible. However, the good news is that winning every game is not mandatory to complete most objectives.

 

Many of the tasks are tied to simply playing matches or scoring goals in a certain number of games. This makes the challenge accessible to players of all skill levels. Even if you lose a few matches, you can still progress and collect the majority of rewards.

 

For Ultimate Team fans who enjoy building squads and improving their roster of FC 26 Players, this mode provides plenty of high-rated packs that could significantly strengthen your club.

 

How to Complete the Ultimate Gauntlet 13 Objective Set

 

There are ten total objectives in the Ultimate Gauntlet 13 event. To complete the entire objective group, you only need to finish nine of them. This flexible structure allows players to skip one of the more difficult tasks—such as achieving a certain number of wins—while still claiming the final reward.

 

Below is a breakdown of the tasks and what you'll earn for completing them.

 

1. Play 1 Match in Ultimate Gauntlet 13

Final Completion Reward

10x 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack

 

This massive pack guarantees multiple high-rated players and almost ensures you will receive at least one promotional card. For many players, this is the main incentive to complete the event.

 

High-rated cards pulled from these packs can also be extremely useful for Squad Building Challenges (SBCs). Even if you don't pack a top-tier star, 86+ rated players hold strong value for SBC requirements, indirectly helping you save FC 26 Coins that would otherwise be spent on the transfer market.
