FC 26 Servers Offline for June 18 Maintenance
FC 26 players are experiencing server downtime today, June 18, as EA Sports conducts essential maintenance. This outage affects all online matchmaking modes across FC 26, and even older titles like FC 25 and FC 24.
When Will FC 26 Servers Be Back Online?
EA Sports has confirmed the maintenance schedule. Servers went down at 1am PST / 4am EST on June 18 and are expected to be offline for six hours.
Barring any unexpected delays, FC 26 servers should be back up and running by 7am PST / 10am EST.
FC 26 Server Maintenance Schedule (June 18)
| Time Zone | Start Time | Estimated End Time |
|---|---|---|
| PST | 1am | 7am |
| CST | 3am | 9am |
| EST | 4am | 10am |
| UTC | 8am | 2pm |
| BST | 9am | 3pm |
EA Sports will update the schedule if any further delays occur.
Impact of the Maintenance
During this maintenance window, you won’t be able to access any game modes that require online matchmaking. This includes the entirety of Ultimate Team and its various sub-modes.
Even modes like Squad Battles are inaccessible. Trying to matchmake in Ultimate Team will result in an error.
The FC 26 web app appears to be functioning normally. However, it’s a good idea to hold off on completing any Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) on the web app. There’s a potential risk of data loss during this period.
This maintenance does not affect offline modes. You can still enjoy playing Career Mode, managing your favorite club and aiming for championship glory.
What to Expect After Maintenance
Once the servers are back online, players can look forward to new token rewards available in the store. With the Path to Glory event concluding, anticipation is building for the reveal of the next set of special cards redeemable with tokens.
