What’s New?
Sorare released its update to inform players about the recent changes in its ecosystem. These are cut across various aspects, including Game Weeks, reward systems, and the upcoming Sorare: Global Cup. With these, players can know what to expect and how to maximize their playing chances.
Game Weeks: 321 and 322
Unlike previous Game Weeks, events in Game Week 321 will end at noon CET on Thursday, November 10, 2022. Similarly, Game Week 322 events will start the same day and end on Tuesday, November 15, 2022, at noon CET. According to Sorare, the changes were made to “better accommodate the Global Cup and International Special.”
Also, between November 20 and December 19, 2022, Game Weeks will be called “Matchdays”. During this time, events will not follow the usual schedules; instead, they will be adjusted to accommodate the big events. Notably, the usual schedule features a start of events on Tuesday and the end of the Game Week on Friday.
Additionally, referring to the Game Weeks as Matchdays will help to avoid confusion. As such, players will be able to follow the events in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Basically, there will be events such as knockout and qualifying rounds in the tournament.
Sorare: Global Cup 2022
The Sorare: Global Cup is fast approaching and it will cause a change in events. The deadline for Matchday submissions will end earlier than usual on the first game day of the Sorare: Global Cup. Hence, players should be ready as the deadline on that day will close an hour before the opening game starts.
As mentioned earlier, events will be adjusted to fit the schedule of the Global Cup. Also, players are to be on the lookout for new updates before the competition’s start date. Below is the new Matchday schedule:
- Matchday 1: November 20 to November 24, 2022
- Matchday 2: November 25 to November 28, 2022
- Matchday 3: November 29 to December 2, 2022
- Matchday 4: December 3 to December 6, 2022
- Matchday 5: December 9 to December 12, 2022
- Matchday 6: December 13 to December 15, 2022
- Matchday 7: December 17 to December 19, 2022

Furthermore, plans for the Sorare: Global Cup event will be announced on Thursday, November 10, 2022. Interestingly, the competition will be open to all Sorare Managers across the globe.
Bigger & Better Rewards
As part of plans to commemorate the biggest sporting event in the world, Sorare has decided to increase the rewards. Compared to the usual reward totals, the prize pools are now bigger and better. The platform stated that card rewards for Star and Tier 1 are now increased while mid-week Game Weeks still maintain the usual totals.
International Special Tournament
Sorare – in a previous announcement – emphasized that the International Special tournament is one to look out for. As announced, there will be 4 divisions in the tournament, cut across the four card scarcities. Hence, there will be games across the Limited, Rare, Super Rare, and Unique categories.
Also, the platform will be increasing the reward qualities as the 2022 FIFA World Cup final gets closer. Notably, the tournament is slated for Qatar. To participate, players must take note of the following:
- Only players that are playing for their national senior team can participate in the tournament.
- While senior team players are eligible, Legends are not allowed to play. With this, Sorare hopes to make the tournament as interesting and competitive as possible.
- A 50% bonus goes to the team’s captain.
- During the competition, XP bonuses will be applied.
Classic Sorare Competitions
Following the International Special tournament, Sorare will open four extra competitions. Collectively, they are referred to as the Classic Sorare Competitions. They include:
- Global All-Star competition. This features games across the Limited, Rare, Rare Pro, Super Rare, and Unique categories.
- Second Division Europe competition. Like the Global All-Star competition, this also features games across the Limited, Rare, Rare Pro, Super Rare, and Unique categories.
- Under-23 Special competition. Notably, this is a special edition of the pre-existing under-23 games. Here too, games are played across the Limited, Rare, Rare Pro, Super Rare, and Unique categories.
- Underdog competition. Unlike the others, this competition features games across all but the Rare Pro category.

- The first 4 playing cards must be in the same scarcity category as the name of the league. That is, a player playing in the Rare League must have his first 4 cards from the Rare category. Similarly, playing in the Unique League means there must be 4 Unique cards among the 5 playing cards.

Under-23 Special Tournament
- Only players who are eligible for the usual Under-23 tournament can participate.
- The first 4 cards must be in the same scarcity category as the league name.
