The FC Online update on Thursday, October 29 introduced the 26UP (26 Undroppable Player) class alongside new ICON TM and ICON players. The 2026 Roster Update was also applied, raising the squad salary limit from 310 to 315.
26UP consists of 205 players who contributed to their teams by playing in most league matches during the 25-26 season across Europe's top four leagues. Key players include Yan Diomande, Morgan Rogers, Bernardo Silva, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo. Vinícius was also given a high OVR of 125.
Yan Diomande stands out for his two-footed ability and quick pace. At +1 upgrade, he possesses 132 Acceleration and 131 in both Speed and Dribbling, along with traits such as Trickster and Finesse Shot. Morgan Rogers also debuted as a two-footed player, with Dribbling, Long Shots, and Vision all rated at 126.
Eight players joined each of the ICON TM and ICON classes. The lineup includes Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Sergio Agüero, Rivellino, Mario Kempes, Paolo Rossi, Geoff Hurst, Pepe, and Raphaël Varane.
ICON TM Rummenigge is two-footed with Speed, Acceleration, and Finishing all rated at 130. Agüero is also two-footed, recording 129 in Finishing, Shot Power, and Long Shots. Rivellino emphasizes ball-handling ability with a two-footed setup along with 132 in Agility and Dribbling.
EVO was also introduced, allowing players to exchange existing players for a new class. Through the Agent, players can exchange 24EP and CU cards at +8 upgrade or higher for EVO 24EP and EVO CU players granted new traits. Newly acquired players are initially untradable, and upgrading requires separate tokens.
The Roster Update was also implemented. 500 players debuted in the 26PL class, while supply for the existing 25PL class was discontinued. The Live class was renamed 26LIVE, bringing new player additions as well as OVR and salary adjustments. Club affiliations were updated, and user convenience for squad management and the Transfer Market was improved. Accessibility to menus for player registration, team tactics, designated players, and team colors was also enhanced, making management easier from a single screen.
