Quick Takes:
- Under 400 FIFA Rivals NFTs are live ahead of launch, featuring player cards, cosmetic kits, and gameplay-linked footballs.
- Items like footballs influence match conditions and offer bonuses, but are consumable with limited uses.
- The source of these NFTs is unconfirmed, though soft launch activity or backend testing are likely explanations.
FIFA Rivals won’t launch globally until June 12, but its first batch of NFTs is already trading on the Mythical Market. The early appearance of these assets has raised questions across the web3 gaming space, especially since the game hasn’t formally exited soft launch.
At the time of publication, fewer than 400 digital collectibles are listed, including in-game items like kits, footballs, animations, and a limited group of player NFTs. England internationals Aaron Ramsdale and Kobbie Mainoo are among the first footballers featured, alongside Joao Felix of Portugal.
The source of these NFTs hasn’t been confirmed by Mythical Games. Some may have been generated by early-access players, while others could be test items seeded to validate trading mechanics. Either way, the Mythical Market is now live with assets tied directly to FIFA Rivals’ upcoming item economy.
FIFA Rivals NFTs: Where to Trade and What to Expect
Market pricing is currently speculative. With no formal gameplay yet and very few items in circulation, prices reflect early scarcity. As the player base expands post-launch and NFTs are created through gameplay and in-app purchases, both availability and pricing dynamics are expected to change.
Not all items are cosmetic. Some in-game objects, like footballs, come with gameplay effects. Based on official descriptions, these NFTs help determine home-field advantage by comparing an in-game “aura” stat. The football with the higher aura gets a better shot at being used in matches. When used to win, it triggers a gameplay bonus. Each ball has limited charges, meaning their utility eventually expires.
The rollout ties into broader plans for FIFA Rivals, which will feature Adidas-branded gear and support Quick Trade, a new system from Mythical that enables real-time asset swaps between players. According to the studio, all items in FIFA Rivals are on-chain and part of a larger multi-title ecosystem powered by its native $MYTH token.
Mythical Games previously launched NFL Rivals, which recorded $12 million in NFT sales volume in 2024 according to CryptoSlam. FIFA Rivals is positioned as its most ambitious title to date, leveraging FIFA’s global IP and mobile-first distribution to drive blockchain adoption at scale.
With the official release just days away, the Mythical Market is already offering a glimpse at how FIFA Rivals will handle digital scarcity, consumable perks, and early price discovery for itemized gameplay.
