As with previous iterations of the game, Madden 18 looks to be introducing the Ultimate Team Most Feared players once again through the upcoming Halloween update. In this full Madden 18 Most Feared guide, we’ll be going over everything you can expect once the Most Feared update eventually launches for the game, as well as our best guesses as to when the event will start.

Madden 18 MUT Most Feared Guide

EA recently told us that the MUT Most Feared Halloween update is set to begin very shortly for Madden 18, meaning you can likely expect it to launch worldwide on either Thursday, October 18, or on Friday, October 19. The latter release date seems more likely, as it’d let the MUT Halloween event launch right when the weekend hits, letting the maximum amount of players jump on in the action as soon as possible.

As for what the MUT 18 Halloween event will actually contain, we should look back to past events in previous Madden games for some hints. The MUT Most Feared players will be arriving as soon as the Halloween event fully kicks off, at which point plenty of brand new player cards will be put into the game for players to collect.

These new players are known as the ‘Most Feared’ variety, and will likely come in both the Gold and Elite tiers, as they have done in previous Madden games. In Madden 17 for example, if you collected all of the MUT Most Feared players together in a single set, you’d be able to earn yourself a 94 OVR Most Feared Brian Urlacher card, for use both during and after the Halloween event wrapped up.

As for other MUT Most Feared players, back in Madden 17 you’d be able to collect many other Most Feared players as soon as the event started. Once you’d got your hands on these Most Feared players, there would be a very limited period of time (October 29-31) during which Gold Most Feared players would be upgraded to 92 OVR, while Elite Most Feared would upgrade to a 95 OVR. This would only happen during those specific dates however, and afterwards, all the Most Feared players would decrease back to their original ratings, except for the Most Feared Brian Urlacher card.

Madden 18 MUT Most Feared Solo Challenges

Back in Madden 17 there were MUT Most Feared solo challenges, which you could take on at any time during the event in order to gain certain rewards that couldn’t be found anywhere else in the game. These were the Trick or Treat, Creepy, and Horror solo challenges, and we’ve outlined the rewards for each just below.

Trick or Treat Challenge Rewards:

• 86 OVR Brian Urlacher
• 36,250 Coins
• Challenge Item Pack
• 8 Most Feared Silver Packs
• 15 Most Feared Challenge Items
• 2 Most Feared Gold Packs

Creepy Challenge Rewards:

• 24,000 coins
• 8 Treat Packs
• 2 Candy Packs
• 2 Most Feared Gold Packs
• Most Feared Away Uniform with chemistry

Horror Challenge Rewards:

• 28,000 coins
• 4 Treat Packs
• 5 Candy Packs
• 2 Most Feared Gold Packs
• 2 50 Contract Packs
• 1 75 Contract Pack
• Most Feared Home Uniform with chemistry

We suspect that these Most Feared solo challenges will return in a different form in Madden 18’s Most Feared event, although with a different amount of challenges, and different rewards. It’s entirely possible that an upgraded Brian Urlacher card will return for the event, but we’ll have to wait until the event launches to find out for certain.
