Position changes in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team explained: Secondary positions and consumables

FIFA 23 Ultimate Team completely changes the way position changes work, paving the way for more diverse and interesting FUT teams. Here’s everything you need to know about positional changes in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team.

FIFA 23 is almost here, and fans can’t wait to see what EA SPORTS has in store this time. As this is the last game before EA SPORTS FC takes over, expectations are higher than ever as the series looks to end on a high note.

There are a host of major gameplay changes, as well as updates to Career Mode and professional clubs, but Ultimate Team is once again the main attraction. In addition to crossplay support and a new shared market, FIFA 23 Ultimate Team will fundamentally change the way positional changes work.

Here’s everything you need to know about FUT 23 position changes, from secondary positions to consumables.

The old positional system has been dropped in favor of a new setup, in an effort to give FUT fans more options for building their teams.

The position change will no longer depend on their starting role, and will be more unique for each individual star. This is very different from FIFA 22 and previous titles, where all forwards could be moved to the back with enough positional modifiers, and all full backs could only be turned into wingers on their respective flanks.

In addition to the position shown on their card, some players will be given secondary positions that they can change. For example, Kylian Mbappé can switch from striker to left winger, while Joao Cancelo can switch from left back to right back.

Versatile players can also have more than one secondary position. This means you’ll see players start on different wings, or midfielders move into defense more frequently, freeing up countless possibilities for team building.

FIFA 23 Ultimate Team also introduces an all-new consumable that allows players to change positions. The specific modifiers disappear, in favor of a single item.

These special consumables can be earned by opening packs or purchased on the transfer market as before, but they can be used on any player.

The application of the modifier allows FUT managers to choose which secondary position they want to move their players to, rather than having to move them forward or backward gradually.
