Zidane’s 90 OVR Icon card is available for every player in EA FC 25 who logs in to the game before February 14, 2025. You just have to open the game before said date and a TOTY Eras 2002 ICON Zidane pack will be waiting in the store.

As for the Evolution, you have to be an EA FC 25 Club member in order to have access to it. To be eligible for the Club, you must have played EA FC 24 anytime before September 26, 2024, and FC 25 before October 31, 2024. So, even if you have played EA FC 24 before but bought FC 25 more than a month after its release, you’re not a club member.

It is not a join-in club. You’re already enrolled if you meet the requirements mentioned above.

Is Zidane Unleashed EVO Worth Unlocking In EA FC 25?

Yes, the TOTY Zidane Unleashed Evolution is worth doing in EA FC 25. Not only are the challenges to complete it simple, but the upgrade the Frenchman gets makes him one of the very best attacking midfielders in the game.

We recommend playing Zidane at CAM as a Shadow Striker. Although he is versatile enough to be used in other midfield roles, none is better than using him as an attacking player. In terms of chem style, you can use any that complements his role, like Hunter, Catalyst, or Maestro. This makes him absolutely worth upgrading to EVO if you are eligible.

Sure, if you managed to open hundreds of upgrade packs and put in the hard yards for those 82+ x20 SBCs to pack someone like TOTY Jude Bellingham, you won’t find Zizou in your starting eleven. But, let’s be honest, none of us got one.
