EA Sports announced a significant server maintenance for FC 26 scheduled for November 7, marking the first major downtime this year. Although the specific reason for the maintenance was not disclosed, it appears to be routine.
According to EA Sports, the servers will remain offline for about seven hours. Once the countdown reaches zero, normal matchmaking should resume as usual. However, there is a possibility that maintenance could be extended beyond the planned window.
"All modes that utilize online matchmaking and require internet connectivity will be out of order. This includes the popular Ultimate Team mode, which requires a persistent internet connection to play."
EA Sports will provide updates if the maintenance lasts longer than expected. This countdown is designed to help players track when the servers will be back online and gaming can continue normally.
Summary: FC 26 servers will undergo a scheduled seven-hour maintenance on November 7, temporarily disabling all online modes including Ultimate Team, with updates provided if extended downtime occurs.
