Road to the Knockouts (RTTK) campaign has officially kicked off in FC 24 Ultimate Team.
The FC 24 Ultimate Team Road to the Knockouts (RTTK) campaign is back, bringing the excitement of UEFA’s European competitions to the virtual pitch. This fan-favorite promotion offers live cards, whose stats can be upgraded based on the clubs’ real-world performance in UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Europa Conference League, and—for the first time—the UEFA Women’s Champions League (UWCL).
As teams battle it out in the 2023/24 season, players will be keen on the progress of their live items, which could receive a stat boost with every milestone reached in the competition.
European giants are ready to enter the arena.

How Does the RTTK Live Items Work?
To keep it simple, RTTK players can earn a +1 In-Form Upgrade if their club wins two remaining Group Stage games or qualifies for the Knockout Stages. Additionally, some UWCL RTTK players can get an extra upgrade if their club advances to the Group Stage through Second Round Qualification matches.
It’s important to highlight that upgrades are based only on team performance, so a player doesn’t have to feature in matches to be eligible for the upgrade. Upgrades will go live in-game starting on the Friday of each matchweek.
