EA FC 26 Server Maintenance Duration and Downtime
EA confirmed that EA FC 26, along with FC 25 and FC 24, is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance affecting all platforms. The maintenance window runs from November 7, 07:00 to 14:00 UTC, temporarily disabling online features such as Ultimate Team.
What to Expect During Maintenance
Players will see warnings about 30 minutes before the servers go offline, including notifications like “Match Creation Disabled.” This downtime affects multiple titles, so switching consoles won’t help—Division Rivals, the transfer market, and online drafts are all paused.
How Long Will Servers Be Down?
The maintenance is expected to last roughly seven hours. EA noted that servers should return around 14:00 UTC, though in some cases, downtime can extend if technical issues occur.
Official EA Statement
“Server maintenance for EA FC titles will begin at 07:00 UTC and is expected to conclude around 14:00 UTC. Online play will be unavailable during this period.”
Suggested Alternatives
Since multiplayer is offline, players might use the time to explore single-player modes or simply take a break before diving back into matches later in the day.
Author’s Summary
EA FC 26, 25, and 24 servers are under maintenance from 07:00 to 14:00 UTC, pausing online modes across all platforms while updates are applied.
