How to tell if it’s a walkout in FC 25 explained

As a seasoned cinephile and FIFA Ultimate Team aficionado, I can tell you that nothing beats the thrill of unwrapping a pack in FC 25 and witnessing that magical walkout animation. However, this year’s extended pack opening sequence can make it challenging to discern whether you’ve struck gold or just another Dani Olmo.


In FIFA 25’s Ultimate Team, there are scarcely any thrills quite comparable to the instant excitement when a walkout occurs during pack opening.

However, due to the updated start screen this year, it can be challenging to determine if you’ve been fortunate enough to obtain one of the top cards within the game.

This year’s unboxing animation takes a considerable amount of time, regardless of whether you receive an ordinary card or a rare one like Dani Olmo multiple times. Therefore, it’s beneficial to learn how to quickly identify if it’s worth continuing or if you should skip ahead.

Read on for everything you need to know.

What rating is needed for a walkout in FC 25

In FC 25, the player ratings can be as low as 47 but may rise in the future. Only the top-tier players, those with a rating of 86 and higher, will receive the walkout animation when unboxing packs.

Players with ratings falling within the range of 81 to 85 will experience slightly varied animations, yet these differences might be challenging to discern due to their close resemblance.

How to spot a walkout in FC 25

How to tell if it’s a walkout in FC 25 explained

Distinguishing a walkout from a card scoring between 81 and 85 calls for an observant gaze, since they start similarly – both featuring a figure strolling along a tunnel.

I’ll be participating in a walkout, and at the end of the tunnel, a triangular arrangement of lights will appear to mark our path – a symbol unique to those joining the walkout. On the contrary, for those who choose not to participate, no such luminous triangle will be visible behind them.

If the card is unique, be it for a promotion or an in-form, the hues lining the tunnel will vary and align with the colors on the card.

If a card has a rating of 80 or lower, it instantly takes you to the screen where the pack is opened without any introductory scene.
