Gerd Müller and Zola Surprise Drop in eFootball 2026

If the v5.3.0 update in eFootball 2026 didn’t bring enough excitement, the second week of February certainly does. KONAMI has unexpectedly introduced Gerd Müller and Gianfranco Zola as new Legends, while also launching the FIFAe World Cup 2026 Challenger Series Campaign, giving players fresh competitive incentives.

February Update Overview

FIFAe World Cup 2026 Challenger Series Campaign

KONAMI has officially begun the FIFAe World Cup 2026 Challenger Series Campaign, further integrating eFootball 2026 into the global FIFAe competitive ecosystem. The campaign serves as an in-game gateway to the official Challenger Series structure.

Running from February 12 to February 26, 2026, the event allows players to participate in a dedicated in-game tournament. By completing campaign objectives, participants can earn rewards including:

• Random Booster Token
• Random Skill Token
• Position Token
• 20,000 EXP

While no eFootball Coins are included, KONAMI is offering 2,000 free eFootball Points, which can be claimed via the official eFootball Points website during the campaign period.

Epic World Classics: New Legends Arrive

The update also introduces an Epic World Classics pack featuring two new Legends.

Gerd Müller, widely regarded as one of the most clinical strikers in football history, joins the game as a Fox in the Box. His card emphasizes elite positioning, outstanding finishing, strong physical attributes, and impressive heading ability despite his relatively short stature — making him a top-tier attacking option.

Alongside Müller is Gianfranco Zola, who takes on a more creative role. Zola’s card boasts strong overall stats and comes equipped with Show Time skills that enhance his playmaking capabilities. Having both Legends featured in the same pack adds considerable value for collectors and competitive players alike.

Adding even more star power, Pelé returns with a brand-new card — his second appearance in eFootball 2026. Classified as a Creative Playmaker, Pelé holds the highest overall rating among the trio and features premium Show Time abilities such as Phenomenal Finishing and Momentum Dribbling.

Web Store Offer: Gabriel Batistuta

In addition to the in-game content, the web store features a limited-time offer for Gabriel Batistuta. This Fox in the Box version can reach a rating of 103 OVR. While it may not be his strongest version, it represents solid value for players looking to add a physically dominant striker to their squad.

With new Legends, competitive events tied to FIFAe, and special offers available, February is shaping up to be a significant month for eFootball 2026 players.
