On November 7, 2025, players trying to log into EA SPORTS FC 26 are encountering connection errors and cannot access online services. This issue is not due to an unexpected crash but stems from a significant, planned server maintenance.
The official EA SPORTS FC social media account announced the downtime, which impacts the entire franchise, including FC 26, FC 25, and FC 24.
“The servers for FC 26, FC 25, and FC 24 are currently offline due to scheduled maintenance.”
Service status websites like DownDetector show a sharp rise in outage reports submitted by users. As players from various regions started their day and tried to connect, reports surged from nearly zero to over 350, confirming a widespread outage affecting the player base.
Players are advised to wait until the maintenance completes to regain access to online services.
EA SPORTS FC servers are offline for a seven-hour planned maintenance on November 7, 2025, temporarily affecting all versions, including FC 26, 25, and 24.
