Quick answer — DFG Week 2 Live Events
What Live Events are in Destined for Glory Week 2, and how does the Ultimate Gauntlet work?
Week 2 of Destined for Glory brings the first Ultimate Gauntlet of EA SPORTS FC™ 27. EA’s Destined for Glory page (25 Sep 2026) says it's played over two rounds, with 10 daily attempts to enter. You complete various play and win Objectives for rewards.
Alongside it, the longer-running Destined for Glory Exhibition gives you 10 daily attempts, with Objectives that include using a Destined for Glory Player Item in three matches. The campaign also has two Rush Events, with a themed Flash Rush in the second week. Free Evolutions run across both weeks, including one Training Camp Evolution per week. Ultimate Gauntlet also offers an earnable Evolution consumable that gives you an extra repeat of an existing Evolution. Regular and Premium Destined for Glory Badges come from playing and completing the Event Objective group.
This page doesn't list the Team 1 squad. Use the links below for who's in the first Campaign Squad and how season-long upgrades work.
What to do: use your daily Gauntlet and Exhibition attempts, claim the Training Camp Evolution, then work through the Event Objective group for badges. Follow cards on Players, Evolutions and in Objectives.

Ultimate Gauntlet — how to approach Week 2
Two rounds + daily attempts (EA)
Think of the Gauntlet as a daily allowance: 10 attempts per day across two rounds. Use your attempts when your squad meets the live entry requirements. There's no reliable “best round order”, whatever other sites say.
Play and win Objectives (check the live reward list)
EA keeps the rewards broad: complete various play and win Objectives. That's all EA has confirmed.
Watch out (community and third-party guides, not EA): some calendars list exact Gauntlet round scores, pack names or refresh times beyond “10 daily”. Check every number in the Campaign Hub / Live Events screen before you rely on it.
Earnable Evolution consumable (extra Evolution repeat)
Ultimate Gauntlet includes an earnable Evolution consumable that gives you an extra repeat of an existing Evolution (EA). Use it alongside FUTWIZ's Evolutions page. EA doesn't give drop rates.
Destined for Glory Exhibition
How it works (EA): attempts and the DFG player objective
Exhibition is the longer-running DFG Live Event: 10 daily attempts, with Objectives that include playing a Destined for Glory Player Item in three matches for rewards. Any DFG item already in your Club will do.
Objective examples from other sites (unconfirmed)
Watch out (community objective lists, not EA): other guides publish detailed Exhibition objective lists (for example goals from outside the box, scoring across several matches, Low Driven finishes, wins with a French starter, scoring with a DFG starter, loan picks) plus coin, pack and named Squad Foundations rewards. Use them as a starting checklist only once you've checked each row in Objectives / Campaign Hub.
Training Camp Evolutions + DFG badges
One Training Camp Evo per campaign week (EA)
Destined for Glory brings free Evolutions over two weeks, including one Training Camp Evolution for each week of the campaign. Claim Week 2’s Training Camp when it appears in the Evolution Store or Objectives. Check the eligibility and expiry there.
Regular / Premium DFG Badges via Event Objective group
Cosmetic Evolutions return as Regular and Premium Destined for Glory Badges, earned by playing and completing the Event Objective group (EA). The unlock thresholds are only shown in-game.
Track it on FUTWIZ Evolutions
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
| Evolutions | Training Camp and consumable repeats |
| Objectives | Event Objective group progress |
| Players DB | DFG / EVO target card pages |
| FUTWIZ Players | Season-long DFG tracking (full ladders in the prep guide) |
Rush + Flash Rush (Week 2)
Two Rush Events; Flash Rush in week 2 (EA)
EA confirms two Rush Events for the campaign, with a themed Flash Rush in the second week. Open the live Rush tiles for the rules and rewards; EA hasn't published Season Point or coin totals.
Check the live event tiles
Rush and Flash Rush rewards change. Trust the in-game event tile over any calendar screenshot.
Priority order for Standard clubs
Claim daily Gauntlet / Exhibition → Training Camp → badges
If you're on Standard or joined at worldwide launch, midway through DFG:
- Ultimate Gauntlet: use your 10 daily attempts while it's the featured Live Event, and look out for the Evolution consumable.
- Exhibition: use your daily attempts on the DFG-in-three-matches objective and anything else on the live tile.
- Training Camp Evolution: claim the free Week 2 Evolution when it's available.
- Event Objective group: work towards the Regular / Premium DFG Badges.
- Flash Rush: play it when the themed tile is live, but don't let it crowd out your Gauntlet and Exhibition attempts.
Season-long upgrade tracking (goals and assists, or clean sheets, depending on position) runs from 25 Sep through the 2026/27 domestic season. The full tables are in the prep guide.
