On today's episode of GMM, EA revealed the annual Blitz program, which is scheduled to start tonight at 6 pm ET and run until December 2nd at 1pm ET. An alternate currency called Blitz Boltz can be earned by completing daily challenges and objectives while the program is active. Blitz Boltz can be redeemed in the Store for Blitz players and Store offers, or used to upgrade Welcome Pack players.
After Blitz ends, any unused Blitz Boltz will convert to Coins. EA did not mention the exact conversion rate, but it's usually a good idea to spend them before the program ends.
Unlike previous years, ALL Blitz players will be available starting tonight at 6pm ET, when the program kicks off. Check out a preview of the Blitz players and schedule below:
