EA FC 26 Scheduled Maintenance on 7 November
EA Sports announced planned maintenance for the servers hosting EA Sports FC 26 and Ultimate Team on 7 November. The work is expected to finish by approximately 14:00 UTC.
Impact on Players During Maintenance
Players might encounter disconnections or temporary loss of access to some online features throughout the maintenance. Match creation will be disabled 30 minutes before the maintenance starts, so it’s advisable to finish any Division Rivals or Squad Battles matches early.
