You can use this page to check for any outages, whether you are on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, or Switch! Now the FC 24 release date is well behind us, find out the FC 24 server status below.
Is FC 24 down?
FC 24 servers are currently down at time of writing. VideoGamer can confirm that attempting to log in as of 09:33 GMT, we were greeted with the following message:
“Sorry, it appears the EA servers are currently down. We are working to address the problem. Please try again later.”
We are also seeing a high number of reports stating the EA and FIFA servers are down on Downdetector, suggesting there are ongoing issues.
This is due to a scheduled maintenance period that was announced from the official EA Sports FC Direct Communication account on X, formerly Twitter.
Throughout the season, scheduled maintenance periods will occur in FC 24. This means all online modes will be temporarily deactivated, typically commencing half an hour prior to the maintenance start time.
Server maintenance usually occurs during nighttime hours, aiming to minimise disruption to the gaming community.

In most cases, announcements regarding planned server maintenance can be found on the official EA Sports FC Direct Communication account on X (formerly known as Twitter). The maintenance will temporarily suspend access to online modes and matchmaking.
