FUT is also affected by the issues.

Almost 10 popular games are affected as players wait for connectivity to return.

Here’s what you need to know about EA’s server issues.

Why is EA not working?

EA has not given a reason as to why the servers are down, but it is not due to maintenance or updates.

The issues have been going on for a number of hours, and there is no time given for when they are expected to be fixed.

EA is aware of the issues and is looking into how to solve them.

The EA Twitter says: “Something’s up with our online services, but we’re on it. In the meantime, you might not be able to connect to online modes, buy games, or log in to your account. 

“We’ll get you back in your game as soon as we can.”

How to check if EA servers are working

The easiest way to see if the servers are working for you is to try to go online with the game of your choice.

There is a chance that server outages are only partial and your game may work after some time.

The other way is to check the official EA Help Twitter page which is giving live updates.

This is where people will likely find out when servers are back first.

What games are affected by the EA outage?

Every game that is part of the EA library that uses online components is currently affected.

The list is as follows:

  • Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
  • EA Sports PGA Tour
  • Wild Hearts
  • Need For Speed: Unbound
  • FIFA 23
  • Apex Legends
  • Madden 23
  • F1 22
  • The Sims 4
