By Alfie Carrington••3 min read
The Festival of Football reaches new heights with the release of the Nick Woltemade Glory Hunters SBC in FC 26 Ultimate Team. As the 2026 World Cup season heats up, EA has highlighted one of Germany's most unique talents. Woltemade, who recently made a high-profile move to Newcastle United, offers a profile rarely seen in the game—a 6'6" forward with the technical grace of a playmaker. This SBC provides a significantly upgraded version of the player, featuring the new PlayStyles Lab customization options that define the Glory Hunters promo.
The Rise of 'Woltemessi': Real Life Performance
Nick Woltemade has become a household name following his record-breaking transfer from VfB Stuttgart to Newcastle United in late 2025. During the 2025/26 Premier League season, Woltemade recorded 8 goals and 3 assists in 33 appearances, proving that his massive frame is no obstacle to technical excellence. Standing at 1.98m (6'6"), he has earned the nickname "Woltemessi" from teammates due to his nimble footwork and elite close control. His performance for Germany in the World Cup qualifiers, where he netted crucial goals against Northern Ireland, has cemented his status as a key part of Julian Nagelsmann's national setup.
SBC Requirements and Total Cost
Completing this SBC requires a total of 3 challenges. The current market price to finish the set is approximately 56,250 coins on PlayStation and Xbox, while PC users can expect to spend around 59,750 coins. Considering the Nick Woltemade special item is untradeable, you should weigh the cost against his unique meta-shifting capabilities as a giant with high agility.

Given Woltemade's breakthrough at Newcastle and his importance to the German national team, this card is likely to remain relevant throughout the summer tournament cycle.
