EA Sports is preparing to release FC 26 patch 1.1 at the end of the month, bringing a mix of new content and gameplay improvements. The team laid out some of those details in the latest Pitch Notes.
The update will bring in a new Season with a Season Pass and additional Evolutions along with tweaks to manual defending and kick-offs. More aggressive man marking on defense will be seen during kick-offs to help reduce scoring chances that can come from standard kick-off positioning.
Ultimate Team gets some quality-of-life updates, including Objective Tracking, Consumable Evolution Previews and new SBC sorting filters. The Manager Market is also being adjusted to make team changes feel more realistic and Clubs players can look forward to a higher Archetype max level. The patch rounds things out with additional PC optimizations and other various fixes they will reveal later this week.
