What Is A Career Mode Regen & How Can You Find Them?

- Regens are something you might have noticed are mentioned a lot when people talk about career mode, but what exactly are they? What's the difference between a regen and a pregen? These are two questions I'll be answering in today's video!
The first bit of basic info we need to know is how FIFA generates new players. Sure, we all know how the youth academy works, and if you don't, click the link at the top of the video now, but how do other teams actually get young players?
The AI controlled teams don't work like the human owned team. They don't send out youth scouts to Brazil, trying to find the next Neymar. Instead, at the start of each season, the AI is allocated a certain amount of young players. This is actually what the majority of the processing time is used for between seasons, so if you’re ever frustrated waiting for the next season to begin, just know, your console could be generating the next Messi for you to find in that time.
Okay, so the AI just creates its own players, how does this apply to regens? Well a regen is just a shortened term for Regenerated Player. Certain players, usually ones from smaller nations or players with big potential, will be regenerated as young players, so nations can have national teams, and so your database will have the right amount of good players inside.
I think the most notorious current example of a regen is Benzema. After a few seasons, even if he hasnt retired, a replacement French Striker will be born to take Benzema’s spot. The player will be put in either the same league as Benzema, or in the Free Agents.
Regens are created when an original player retires and has the same potential, position, and nationality as the original player. To give another example - Ronaldo’s regen would be a Portuguese striker and would have the same potential as Ronaldo (currently 88). They’d either appear in the Saudi Arabian league, or in the free agents.
In short, a regen is a player who replaces another player once they retire. Of course this is only going to apply to older players, as the majority of young players wont actually retire in the 15 years we get with our careers. However, thats where Pregens come in. You’ve probably guessed from the name, but a pregen is just a community assigned name for a regen that appears before a player retires.
That means even young talents like Haaland and Mbappe can have their replacement arrive long before they retire. There’s actually no restriction on the age a player has to be to get a pregen, even 16 year olds can have their pregen appear and actually be older than the original player..
Pregens can be a bit more difficult to find, when compared to regens. If you find a high potential young Egyptian right winger in the Prem and Salah is still active for Liverpool, its a high chance that this is his pregen, but we cant be fully sure. If we find a huge Costa Rican goalkeeping talent in Ligue 1, and Keylor Navas has retired, we can be almost certain that this is his regen.

Something that can definitely help you for regens:
In the 2nd season, go to search and put the instructions to Belgian, CF, 16-20, Free Agents
There's always an 82+ rated 16 year old which I think is Mertens regen
Mertens doesn't always retire in season 1 I've seen him play up to season 6
@@declangaming24 then it might not be Mertens, but this Belgian guy always comes
@@declangaming24 could be a pregen
@@LincolnLFC might of been I've just started a Al nassr save so I'm just going to stack my team full of lots of players over 30
I also got a Belgian.
I was france manager as a side job just so you can check players out without scouting. one day a 17 year old french striker rated 93 just turns up in the french national pool, didn't even have a club, i signed him on like 15,000 a week 😂
same but mine was a cf i signed him to like league 1 in england 😂
thats benzs regen hes always a free agent
Same i got a 91 rated 17 year old cf free agent when i was the manager of france🎉
@@charliehall8845 bro same mine was 91 rated cf bro turned up at the 3 second
mine was 84 :(
I remember something funny happened when Mertens decided to retire at the middle of Euro and that time I was managing Belgium so the game decided to replace him with his 88 overall regen immediately and I managed to get 2nd in that Euro.
88 years old 💀
Bro would be playing through balls from his death bed
Average aged Belgium international player currently:
Oh wait
Sameee
Search players > Age range 34-50 > look inthe top leagues in England, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, USA and Saudi... look for top players and see if they are retiring at the end of the season... note them down and then at the start of the next season look for that player via their position and nationality and league (may be a free agent) ... if the search comes back with a few other players then it will be the one with the best stats, just scout them, save game and skip forward 12 days to see who is the best...then reload your save and sign them :)
My most common thing to do is to search in the free agents after players under 21. If there is a player with an already revealed overall and its a high one, than that's a no-brainer to me, that's a regen. I even sign them if I don't need them, because you can just sell them after a season for a great amount of money. A lot of effort but worth it, especially when you do a challenge with only signing free players.
🎉😅 1:06 😢
Bro messi retired in my career mode and the FIRST THING i see is a kid at Monaco had 99 acceleration 99 agility 99 sprint speed 92 balance and 91 dribbling he is called Lautaro Iritier
@RandomUA-camGuy Ankara Messi
I think that’s an mbappe regen
the fact that you use west ham as an example of searching the regens and pregens is great
Love this. I always learn something new from your channel. Thanks for all that you do
another note make a save right before ending the season because say if you were waiting for Zlatans regen to appear, the new season he could be a 5'7 low attacking work rate 1 star skills 1 star weak foot stinker, if that happens reload your save and he'll be different when entering your new season again it's all pot luck.
I thought this got patched?
@@raafighaffar5516it did
The buffon pregen of my career mode is 31 and he is retiring at the end of the season, the thing is buffon is in my team and is 78 rated with 58 years old and he has 3 years more of contract
what🤣🤣
@Ukulele4Life no, i use the power of EA BUGS
my buffon didnt retire till 47 but his regen was 91 at 18 years old
At the end of each season in fifa 22 career mode there are always a bunch of world class players which are generated by the game and are without club and I found a 19 year old French cf with 92 rating
What a great vid. You made all the instructions and stuff super clear and easy to understand. Nice job!
I once found a Son and Messi regen as free agents 😂 signed them instantly. Sold the Son regen for £140m and kept the Messi regen coz he was so good
Another good one to get is Fernandinho's Regen, I always seem to find a young high potential Brazilian CDM in the first or second season
You can find out if the pregens are actual ones by going into the edit player. All regens and pregens have the same birthdays as the original players because the game just copies their player
Yeah he showed that in the video he just never talked about it which is weird
@@Volcy22 5:30 ?
So THAT'S why I randomly found an 88 overall 17 year old French CF on the free agent market.
Thanks for the help legend!
Idk if the pregens have a bug like regens with cf but every fullback prägen is always way better than the original. Aitäb the pregen of Hakimi had a 91 after 2 seasons while hakimi had 89. Johnson Davies pregen hada 93 after 1 season. Knystziek Marty Cashs pregen had a 85 1st season
What are you saying
Ye, was playing career mode with my friend. Managed Man City (for fun I guess) and Neymar went to Bergamo Calsio of all teams, so I set up a scouting network in Brazil and ended up getting a 15 year old Brazil LM......94 ball control, dribbling and finishing.
All freaking makes sense now. I was wondering why randomly 3 seasons a random polish striker showed up in free agents with a 85 rating haha
That's such a lazy way to go about handling young players, the AI should be scouting just like we are and they shouldnt just get guys who just replace a good player. They should 'work' for it
The AI magically sign some of these regens
I had Salahs on Vizela & he carried me to winning the Champions League
If there contract expires at the same time they retire there most likely be in free agents 👍
Had a save with Bayern a couple of years back and ended up playing Kimmich togheter with Kimmich pregen.
OMG u give me depression xD that Juric's regen is younger than me xDD. Thank you for explaining this, because I was always confused about this topic, appreciate it a lot. Good video
Pregens almost always generate in the same club the player theyre based off plays for at that time.
Regens can, as of fifa 22 be free agents rather than just generate in the same league/league pyramid as they retired from.
Do they have the same birthday as the actual player all the time?
@@Simon-oi5tq all regens/pregens have the same birth day and month and nationality as the player theyre based on. Thats all you can go off everything else is randomised.
@@DarthRayvonGaming thanks
I've found a strange glitch where i found camavinga's regen after just season one or two
In eafc24
The fan at 6:00 looks like a big baby 😂😂
If they’re low rated but still had an amazing career e.g Ozil would their regen be any good?
Yes I found mane regen he was 89 rated for free the lowest rated regen I found was pepe regen at 76
Navas regen comes at like 88-89
no but also yes
regens will have the same potential as the player they replace (usually the same as their ovr for older players) BUT you can use dynamic potential to boost it
My Suarez regen was 47 rated 😂
@@gaynigga8755 I’ve been seeing that about “dynamic potential “ but what exactly is that or how you use that
In the 2nd season I always find a English regen but I don’t know who they have 93 potential and birthdate: November 22
Vardy
Ended up with an insane messi style free agent 18yr 83ovr
I swear benzema's regen is always so insane 😭
I found benzema's regen as a free agent (bc he end as a free agent) and he is 91 rated and only 17!!!
I've found a cr7 and sergio ramos Regens but both of them have low potential how can I find a high rated regen?
I got a son pregen in my career mode and he was at spurs with son 🤣
Son’s son 😂
i had a career where Dortmund had two haalands... (haaland and his pregen). Then I bought both of them and it was fun having two 94 strikers in front
in all my career modes about 3-5 seasons in i have found a 90+ rated french CF in the the free agents. do with that as you will.
Benjermin
one time my step brother and i both found benzemas regen who was 95 rated at 17
Why they also don’t they give them their player face, such a shame to loose all big players when they retire
You cant keep the face of an old player after he retired, it would be unrealistic like PES does in Master league, it kills realism.
Does this work if I do a player career with like messi for example and if I retire him straight away? So it’s possible to find a messi regen?
I signed a free agent Belgian 84-85 overall Center Forward. Wondering who it is.
Mertens
@@judonhq7611 Thanks!
Lakaka
Ea fc25 on mine Ronaldo retired but no Regen showed up for his position or nationality so I’m confused I’ve checked
I’m in my second season and Zlatan has retired yet I’m unable to find his regen . Is there a certain amount of time you have to wait ? Have made it all the way to start of the official league season and still can’t find him at all
I’m the same with Gareth bale, can’t find that Mf regen anywhere man
Retirement is random I had Zlatan until he was 44
Have you scouted all the young swedish boys yet?
On my 6th season and Christian Eriksen still going strong for Man Utd. pacemaker and all.
In FIFA career mode my player, once you retire and become a manager, does the created my player have a regen or are regen only for real players?
Yes it does you could retire as buffon it would create a Italian keeper same birthday aged between 16-22 random height random stats random face different club or free agent
No i mean, my own player that I created
@@IrxnEdits yes it does create a regen
@@declangaming24 oh that’s cool
@@declangaming24 thanks
What about playstyles on regens, i found cr7s regen and henonly has power header playstyle. Can they gain more as they grow? Im guessing now
How you download the mod you can see the players overalls but i need to scout them first
I signed a Brazilian that have the same positions than Talisca, 80 overall but the birthday is different 😬
Could just be random generated player from the fake Brazil teams
Lamine Yamal is just a pregen of Messi and Neymar in real life lol
Please someone explain to me the 93 rated Lithuanian striker I randomly found back in Fifa 15😅
Does every player who retires get a regen? Or does the game just select some players to get a regen?
It’s normally the top players who get a regen
You do get some random ones as well sometimes. I picked up a Regen from Zambia, so it was easy to figure out who he potentially was the Regen of. It was a guy named Sunzu that I had never heard of, and confirmed when the birthday was the same and the real player was gone. 72 rated CB so pretty average, but a banger for league One
i’m managing ac milan and zlatans just retired, will his regen be in my academy team or something?
I got benzema's regen he is 99 and 21 years old
I'm on my 8 season on manger career mode how would I look for regens then
Is there any way for a regen not to appear took over Celtic in a fc 24 career and got Callum mcgregor a cdm to 85 changed him to cm tried to find him after he retired and couldn’t find anyone who fit him the birthday didn’t match checked all cdm/cm who were Scottish
If retire as a real player like ronaldo and become manager, would that still generate ronaldos regen
I found 92 french cf born 19th dec and on 40k wagehe is INSANE
I can’t find benzema regen, he’s retired but I’ve tried everything an his regen isn’t there
I was watching this video to see if my Serbian LW in my cm to see if he was Dusan Tadic regen turns out he was
05:59 West Ham kid with an usually large head
Look their birthday too. The regen share the same birthdays
i was managing croatioan national team then i had notificatiopn modric retired. litteraly the next time we had national friendlies ther was a new young talent in the squad instead of his place 84 overall cm.
Modric retires in 2 to 3 seasons
Tried to find zlatan regen but he hadnt the same birthday
Found Ronaldinho regen last week
is there any mods that transfer automatically free agents regens to clubs ? It ruins the whole realism... and if possible, get rid of 90 overall 19yo regens :(
Career mode is only 15 years?
If i got messi in my save, where do i find his regen
Another is French ST called Maurice class
If i sign firmino the season before he retires, do i get his regen or i have to go looking for him??
Yes if you sign firmino for another club he is either in the same league or free agents
Okay but how did you get Thierry Henry?
Do Pregens always appear in the same league as the player they are a pregen of or FA’s, like regens do? Or do they appear anywhere?
same league
i want lika a pes master league after retirement he will come 17 years
can a pregen get a pregen
I can’t find the Nueur regen anywhere?
In pes the footballer would simply have the same name and nationality but just a low overall all this just complicated 😵
Regens should be scrapped. EA needs to rethink how to create new players in the game and how they are assigned to teams. Sucks that high rated or high potential generated players end up on the free agents list.
I get what your saying it should be like the older fifas where If a player like Messi retires he comes back with a different name, stats rating ect as in fifa 12 Ronaldo lasted until he was 38 he retired and this random player Portuguese striker 78 rated but he could rapidly rised up to a 92 overall very quickly which was Ronaldo's potential.
@@declangaming24 Lmao this is basically regens
@@Keeper_Of_Faith thing is regens are good players
It keeps things interesting because there will always be top tier players usually from around 7 countries.
@@willflint5014 yes and it freshens up the gameplay but I find it strange later in saves you find old players at weird clubs for example neymar at 38 in league 1 for Forest Green or Sergio ramos in Serie B for como.
Tbh I’d wish regens would be less op. It gets pretty unrealistic
Mostly free agents since FIFA 23
Why don't come with same faces and name?
But why EA do we need regens?Just destroys the fun of career mode
completely agree, and they put them in free agents haha EA ruins everything
It's so you're not left with Zlatan as the only player in the game after 15 seasons 🗿
Who is this french striker?
Zlatan
Giroud(?)
@@rubencaturna1104 this is a reddit meme about Benzema regen always being 90 at like 20 year old
1 easy way, if im playting in Premier league
buy all the retiring player such as modric , messi etc and let them retire in premier league
and just focus scout in England and check for birthday
That's a good idea what I like to do is sign them as backups to the 1st team
Does they have The same birthday
Yes
Just founds zlatans regen I think
How can I see ther birthday?
one timei found ronaldo regen at 17yo with 80 rated
Why does Benzema always got d best regen
Because he's the best player in the game, tied with Kylian Mbappe.
Hum basically if a french striker is born on 19 of december there's a chance it is me. :')
or me :)
No Ronaldonhio regen?
Oh so that's where the Egyptian right winger came from...
I literally got a pregen of donnarumma in like 4th season of career mode......that dude is 94 rated at 21 yrs of age 💀
Edit - HT 6'7"
Did this man really just call modric a goat?
Back then playing Winning Eleven (PES), the regens would simply be the exact same name as the retired footballers, FIFA should give us the option in doing so
This is how know its fifa

There is a zlatan ren gen
Fifa does not re gen zlatan zlatan re gens fifa
Regens suck. I prefer PES way of doing it, real player comes back as teenager and has poor stats, has to come from the academy and improve them.
Loads of these players have awful potential, it stays at "at this club since 2024 ect",
