01
The revival
Ultimate Team, rebuilt around the original client.
Shared economy
Open packs, buy and sell players, bid on auctions, make offers and build your squad in a shared FUT economy.
Online matches
Play online through restored matchmaking and relayed matches. Connection reliability and the match experience are still being tested in beta.
Historical cards
Build with FIFA 13 base, transfer and special cards, preserving each version's historical club affiliation and original identity.
Live rotations
Discover a 23-card Lizard TOTW every hour, drawn from historical IF, TOTS, MOTM and ultra-special cards. Active specials rotate through packs.
Authenticity first
The project uses the retail PC client wherever possible and reverse-engineers original protocol behaviour rather than replacing the game UI.

FAQ
Before you download.
Does Lizard '13 include FIFA 13?
No. You need your own legitimate PC installation. The launcher does not distribute FIFA 13, game executables or EA-owned game files.
Is this connected to Electronic Arts?
No. Lizard '13 is an independent community preservation/revival project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Electronic Arts.
Why do I need an invite during beta?
Access is currently invite-only so we can test stability, the shared economy and online play with a controlled group. The invite requirement applies to this beta phase. Bugs and temporary outages are expected while testing continues.
Will my club disappear when the launcher updates?
Launcher updates do not reset your club: progress is saved on the server. During beta, however, progress may be reset as fixes are deployed. Beta progress is not guaranteed to carry into a wider release.
Where do I get support?
Report bugs through the official Lizard '13 GitHub repository's Issues tab. Include what happened, how to reproduce it, your club name and the time with your timezone. Discord is coming soon. Never share passwords, recovery codes, invite codes or sign-in secrets.
