With the 2022 World Cup now over and Argentina the new world champions, the FIFA 23 Path to Glory promo upgrades are complete.
The FIFA 23 Path to Glory Ultimate Team promo began on Friday, November 11, with two squads having been released into Ultimate Team. Players from each nation taking part in the 2022 FIFA World Cup were awarded live player items that upgraded based on how far their country progressed in the tournament.
40 Path to Glory players were released, including the likes of Christopher Nkunku, Bernardo Silva, Vinicius Junior, Leon Goretzka and Kyle Walker. There were five possible upgrade opportunities available for Path to Glory players to receive, with three of them a +1 TOTW upgrade, a five-star weak foot upgrade and a five-star skill move upgrade.
FIFA 23 Path to Glory players received a +1 in-form upgrade if they qualify out of the Group Stage, a +1 upgrade if they won the Round of 16, a five-star weak foot upgrade if they won the quarter-finals, a five-star skill move upgrade if they won the semi-finals, and a final +1 upgrade and three new traits if they win the World Cup. If a player already had five-star skill moves and a five-star weak foot when they reach the semi-finals, they will receive an extra +1 in-form upgrade instead.
Below is a completed Path to Glory upgrade tracker.
