FC 27 Ultimate Scream Guide: Beaver Moon 99 Stat Boost, Token Store, Evolutions and SBCs
FC 27 Ultimate Scream guide: the Halloween promo dates, Token Store rewards and Evos, daily Puzzle SBCs, Ghoul Fest and the 24 November Beaver Moon 99 boost.
Correct as of 24 Oct 2026, 09:20 BST (Europe/London)
EA's official Ultimate Scream announcement and the live FUTWIZ Evolutions and SBC databases are the primary sources for this guide. Where specific daily SBC names, objective checklists or Token Store costs come from early community reporting rather than EA's web post, we flag that clearly so you can verify on the in-game screen.
Ultimate Scream is the first major themed campaign inside FC 27 Season 2: FC Heritage. It launched in Football Ultimate Team on Friday 23 October 2026 and runs for two weeks, bringing position-changed squad items, a dedicated Ultimate Scream Token Store, two Token Store gameplay Evolutions, retro FUT cosmetic shells, a week-two Ghoul Fest Live Event, and a temporary Beaver Moon transformation on 24 November 2026 that boosts one face stat to 99 and grants full in-position Chemistry for seven days.

| Terrifying Token Store | Open throughout Ultimate Scream plus one additional week after the promo ends | Exchange Ultimate Scream Tokens for Token Store Heroes, packs, Evolutions and shells |
| By the Light of the Beaver Moon | Starts Tue 24 Nov 2026 for one full week | Every Ultimate Scream player gets one face stat boosted to 99 plus full in-position Chemistry |

| Ghoul Fest Live Event | Week two of Ultimate Scream | No Rules match mode (offsides and fouls go unpunished) that awards Ultimate Scream Tokens |
| Ghostly Gallery | Active during Ultimate Scream | Complete Objectives with Ultimate Scream cards for Vanity Items, and submit a Set of 5+ items for Gallery Tokens |
Ultimate Scream dates and schedule
EA confirmed in its official campaign post on 23 October 2026 that Ultimate Scream runs for two weeks in Football Ultimate Team 27. With launch on Friday 23 October 2026, a standard two-week turnaround places the end of the main campaign around Friday 6 November 2026, though EA had not published an exact closing hour on the web at launch, so check the in-game campaign timer before leaving late objectives unfinished.
Three follow-on dates matter after launch weekend:
- Week two content (from around Friday 30 October 2026): EA's announcement highlights a second week of Ultimate Scream featuring the Ghoul Fest Live Event and a second pair of Flash Rush events. Check the in-game news tile on Friday 30 October to see whether a second batch of packable Ultimate Scream players also joins the pool alongside the week-two events.
- Terrifying Token Store extra week (until mid-November 2026): EA confirms the Token Store remains open for one additional week after the Ultimate Scream campaign ends, giving you an extra seven days to spend leftover tokens.
- Beaver Moon boost week (from Tuesday 24 November 2026): Nearly three weeks after the main campaign finishes, every Ultimate Scream Player Item receives its temporary lunar upgrade for one full week starting on 24 November 2026.
How Ultimate Scream cards and the Beaver Moon boost work
Ultimate Scream returns to its classic roots in FC 27 with authentic position changes and unique upgrade paths across the squad. You can browse every live item and compare alternate positions in the FUTWIZ FC 27 Players database or test how they fit your starting XI in the FC 27 Squad Builder.
The headline mechanic is By the Light of the Beaver Moon. Starting on Tuesday 24 November 2026, and lasting for one full week, all Ultimate Scream Player Items undergo a temporary transformation:
- One single face stat is boosted to 99 for the full seven-day window.
- Full Chemistry is granted when the player is used in-position, regardless of the surrounding league, club or nation links in your squad.
Because the full-chemistry perk only requires the card to be placed in one of its valid positions, Ultimate Scream items become plug-and-play squad options during the final week of November. Even if an Ultimate Scream card leaves your starting XI after early November, hold onto it in your club for the 24 November Beaver Moon window (and for the Ghostly Gallery set described below) rather than submitting it into a routine upgrade SBC.
How to earn Ultimate Scream Tokens
Ultimate Scream replaces standard swap trackers with the Terrifying Token Store, where tokens earned across Ultimate Team are redeemed directly for players, packs and Evolutions. EA confirms four core ways to earn Ultimate Scream Tokens:
- Themed Objectives: Campaign objective groups in the FUTWIZ Objectives tracker. Early community reporting points to a five-part Phantom Playgrounds objective group in week one that awards tokens alongside an Ultimate Scream player item; check your in-game Objectives tab for the live task list.
- Halloween Puzzle SBCs: Daily themed Puzzle SBCs on the FUTWIZ SBC tracker, which community reporting notes feed into a Puzzle Completionist objective group that pays out tokens.
- Flash Rush events: Two separate Flash Rush events run during each week of Ultimate Scream, with token payouts attached to their objectives.
- Ghoul Fest Live Event: Launches in week two of Ultimate Scream and awards additional tokens under a No Rules match stipulation.
For the full reward list, token priority advice and reported item line-up, read our dedicated FC 27 Ultimate Scream Token Store guide.
Ultimate Scream Evolutions ("Evil-utions")
EA's Evil-utions breakdown confirms that the Token Store houses two gameplay Evolutions (one built to upgrade defensive stats and one that grants a PlayStyle+ to a wide attacker), alongside a trio of retro FUT 17, FUT 19 and FUT 20 Ultimate Scream cosmetic shells available in both the Token Store and the Evolution Store.
Both Token Store gameplay Evolutions are live now on the FUTWIZ Evolutions database, alongside two other Halloween-window paths that dropped on 23 October:
| Evolution | Eligibility caps | Key upgrades & PlayStyles | Unlock route & window |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Haunted Wall | Max 81 OVR, Max 85 Pace, Max 7 PlayStyles | +8 OVR (capped at 84), +1 Weak Foot (cap 3), choice of Bruiser, Intercept or Anticipate (cap 4), +10 Acceleration (cap 78), +10 Sprint Speed (cap 78), +7 Interceptions (cap 82) | Redeemed in the Ultimate Scream Token Store (1-month window) |
| Wicked Winger | Position RM / RW, Max 82 OVR, Max 90 Pace, Max 70 Defending, Max 80 Strength, Max 1 PlayStyle+ | +15 OVR (capped at 85), +1 Skill Moves (cap 4), choice of Finesse Shot+, Quick Step+ or Technical+ (cap 1), +15 Acceleration (cap 87), +15 Sprint Speed (cap 87), +15 Positioning (cap 83) | Redeemed in the Ultimate Scream Token Store (1-month window) |
| Center Spectre | Position CM / CDM, Max 80 OVR, Max 83 Pace, Max 7 PlayStyles, Max 0 PlayStyles+, Max 78 Standing Tackle, Max 81 Long Shots | +5 OVR (capped at 81), Block and Pinged Pass PlayStyles (cap 3), +5 Acceleration (cap 78), +5 Sprint Speed (cap 78), +5 Vision (cap 80) | Listed as Free on FUTWIZ; start within 1 week, expires in 2 weeks (check in-game tab) |
| Shadow Striker++ | Position CAM, Max 83 OVR | Adds CAM Shadow Striker++ Role | Listed as Free on FUTWIZ; 7-month window (check in-game tab) |
A quick note when checking the database: the FUTWIZ index displays Free on The Haunted Wall and Wicked Winger because neither charges coins or FC Points on the Evolution screen itself, but EA confirms both are unlocked by redeeming Ultimate Scream Tokens in the Token Store (community reporting puts their cost at multiple tokens each). Meanwhile, Center Spectre and Shadow Striker++ are not named in EA's Ultimate Scream article, so check your in-game Evolutions menu to confirm whether they sit under the promo tab or alongside the wider FC 27 Season 2 Evolutions line-up.
Spooky SBCs: Daily Puzzle SBCs and Nick Woltemade
EA's Spooky SBCs programme combines daily Halloween-themed Puzzle SBCs with player Ultimate Scream SBCs and Showdown SBCs. You can check every active challenge on the FUTWIZ SBC tracker.
Daily Halloween Puzzle SBC tracker
Day 1 (Spooky Nights) went live at launch and is confirmed on the FUTWIZ SBC tracker. Early community reporting lists five more daily puzzle SBCs releasing at 18:00 UK time through 28 October that feed a Puzzle Completionist objective group; treat Days 2 to 6 as reported schedule names until each challenge appears in game:
| Day | Release date | SBC name | Status & reward notes |

Nick Woltemade Ultimate Scream SBC
The launch-day player challenge on the FUTWIZ SBC tracker is Nick Woltemade ("Earn a special Ultimate Scream Nick Woltemade"). It requires a single challenge, awards an untradeable Ultimate Scream item (listed at 85 OVR on FUTWIZ), and expires on Friday 30 October 2026 at 18:00 GMT. Check the live in-game SBC screen for the exact squad or Item Score requirement and full attribute breakdown before submitting your fodder.
Ghoul Fest (No Rules) and Flash Rush events
Under For the Screamers, EA splits the campaign's live match modes across both weeks:
- Flash Rush (both weeks): Two separate Flash Rush events run during each week of Ultimate Scream. Completing their milestone objectives awards Ultimate Scream Tokens while giving you a fast way to test new cards in 5v5 Rush.
- Ghoul Fest (week two): Launching in the second week of the promo, Ghoul Fest is a themed Live Event played under No Rules settings, where offsides and fouls go unpunished. Alongside match rewards, Ghoul Fest objectives award additional Ultimate Scream Tokens for the Token Store.
Ghostly Gallery: Vanity Items and Gallery Tokens
Ultimate Scream also ties directly into FC 27's seasonal collection feature via the Ghostly Gallery:
- Themed Vanity Items: Use Ultimate Scream Player Items in matches to complete Ghostly Gallery Objectives and unlock Halloween-themed stadium and club vanity rewards.
- Gallery Tokens: Collect and submit a Set of five or more Ultimate Scream players in the Gallery to earn Gallery Tokens. If you are new to how Gallery sets and combined rarities work across seasons, see our FC 27 Gallery Tokens explained guide.
Frequently asked questions
When does the Ultimate Scream Beaver Moon 99 stat boost happen in FC 27?
The Beaver Moon boost starts on Tuesday 24 November 2026 and lasts for one full week. During those seven days, every Ultimate Scream Player Item temporarily has one single face stat boosted to 99 and receives full Chemistry when played in-position.
Can you buy Ultimate Scream Tokens with coins or FC Points?
EA's official announcement only lists gameplay and SBC routes for earning tokens, and early community reporting states they cannot be bought directly with coins or FC Points. In previous years EA has occasionally added store packs that include a bonus token, so check the in-game Store tab to be certain, but your primary supply comes from themed Objectives, daily Puzzle SBCs, Flash Rush events and the week-two Ghoul Fest Live Event.
When does the Ultimate Scream Token Store close?
EA confirms the Terrifying Token Store stays open for one additional week after the two-week Ultimate Scream campaign ends. That gives you until mid-November 2026 to redeem any remaining tokens for Token Store Ultimate Scream Heroes, packs, The Haunted Wall, Wicked Winger or retro FUT cosmetic shells.
How do I get Gallery Tokens from Ultimate Scream?
Submit a Set of five or more Ultimate Scream Player Items inside the Ghostly Gallery. Alongside themed Vanity Items from Ghostly Gallery Objectives, completing a five-player Ultimate Scream set awards Gallery Tokens.
