2. 🔄 Regen Player vs. Pre-gen Player: Comparing Differences and Characteristics
  • Regen Player: A player who appears as a replacement after a player retires.
  • Pre-gen Player: A player who is created in advance before a player retires, and does not apply to all players.
  • ⚠️ 'Regen' and 'Pre-gen' are unofficial terms created by users, not official EA terms.

Regen and pre-gen players only share the same nationality, date of birth, and position as the original player, and the remaining elements (height, dominant foot, play style, appearance, etc.) are all randomly determined. In particular, pre-gen players do not inherit the PlayStyle Plus.

3. 🔍 How to Find Regen Players: Using League Search, Setting Age, and Utilizing Transfer Hub
  • ✅ Regen players play a role in maintaining the number of players in the game through the generational change of retired players.
  • ✅ Regen players appear in the season immediately after the original player retires.
  • How to Find: At the end of the season, set the minimum age to 37 to check the players scheduled to retire by league. Players who cannot be registered in the transfer hub are players scheduled to retire.
  • ✅ Regen players are randomly assigned to clubs within the retired league.

Additional Tip: Searching by pre-retirement position, nationality, and age 16-21 can narrow down candidates and make it easier to find.

4. ✨ Amazing Phenomenon: Multiple Regen Players Appearing at the Same Time?!

Rarely, there are cases where two regen players of Cristiano Ronaldo appear at the same time! Even regen players with the same date of birth appear in the same club. There have also been cases where Messi's regen players appeared at the same time. This is likely a bug, but it adds to the fun of the game.


  • ✅ Regen players of players who retired due to contract expiration appear as free agents (FA).
  • ✅ Free agent regen players can be signed without transfer funds.

5. 🔎 Regen Player Identification Method: Check OVR, Potential, and Date of Birth
  • ✅ Regen players have higher OVR and potential compared to other players.
  • How to Check: Check the date of birth in player editing to see if it matches the original player. (Only possible for club-affiliated players)
  • ✅ Since it is impossible to check the date of birth for free agent players, you must judge by referring to the potential.

AI clubs are automatically given young players by the game at the start of the season instead of youth scouts. At this time, pre-gen players appear.

6. 👶 How to Find Pre-gen Players: Check High OVR, Potential, Nationality, Position, and Date of Birth
  • ✅ Pre-gen players appear from the 2nd season and surge in the 3rd season.
  • ✅ Which player's pre-gen player will appear is completely random.
  • How to Find: Find players with very high OVR and potential compared to their age in competing clubs.
  • ✅ Remember the nationality and position of the player, and then check the nationality and position of the star player in the same club.
  • ✅ If the nationality, position, and date of birth all match, it is confirmed as a pre-gen player.

Interesting Phenomenon: There have been cases where Vinicius' pre-gen player appeared for two consecutive seasons.

The disappointing thing is the face of the reincarnation player. I hope this part will be improved in FC27, including the face of youth players.
