The mobile game eFootball 2026 is adding to its collection of Starter Sets with a new pack featuring legendary striker Gabriel “Batigol” Batistuta. This exclusive set, only available through the game’s online store, includes an Epic version of the Argentine football icon.
If you’re curious whether this player lives up to the standards set by Batistuta and if it’s a good value for the price – even though it’s quite affordable – here’s a detailed review after testing in both AI and player-versus-player matches.
eFootball 2026 Starter Set: Gabriel Batistuta pack details and review
This card is included in a starter pack, and you also get 50 free coins with it, making it a great value. You can purchase it through the KONAMI Codashop.
Gabriel Batistuta
- Position: CF
- Playing Style: Fox In The Box
- Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Finishing
If you’re familiar with Gabriel Batistuta, particularly his previous ‘European Clubs Attackers’ version, you’ll understand his strengths. This new version positions him as a ‘Fox In The Box’ – a role that really plays to his natural abilities.
Compared to the more proactive ‘Goal Poacher’ style, this player tends to stay more central and rely on passes rather than making runs to create opportunities. This can be a great fit for some teams, but might be a bit restrictive for others.
He excels in formations with two strikers or teams that frequently cross the ball. However, if your team focuses on a mobile, quick-passing style with your central forward, this version might feel limited. He sometimes stays put in the ‘False Nine’ role, which is a change from how he played at Roma.
However, when he gets scoring opportunities, he’s very precise and doesn’t waste time with extra touches. Actually, he’s not particularly smooth with multiple touches – they seem a bit forced. He’s also excellent in the air, and I’ve always appreciated his strong physical presence.
Suggested Skills: One Touch Pass, Through Passing, Double Touch, Sole Control
Suggested Booster(s): Agility, Balancer
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Gabriel Batistuta

Is the Starter Set Gabriel Batistuta pack worth purchasing in eFootball 2026
This is a really great offer, in my opinion. If you don’t already have the Batistuta cards from eFootball 2025 and 2026, you should definitely get this one – it’s easily one of his top three cards. Plus, you get 50 coins as a bonus, making it an amazing value.
