How to complete FIFA 21 Prime ICON Upgrade SBC: requirements, solutions, price

A new SBC has gone live in FIFA 21, with players now able to upgrade an ICON to Prime in exchange for a few choice squads — but it won’t come cheap.

Prime ICON Upgrade SBCs — as the name implies — allow you to upgrade any ICON card you have to the powerful Prime version with the stats to match.

The rarity of this level of card, and just how tough they are to get in FIFA 21 normally, means SBCs like this are usually a more popular and much cheaper option than trolling the Market looking for the best price. Let’s take a look at what squads you’ll need to build to get it done.
