The PlayStation Servers are the equivalent of a quality midfielder in EA FC 25, if you don’t have a good one, everything around you falls apart. EA’s servers are known for being hit-and-miss, but it’s another thing if PSN is lunging in with two-footed tackles to break things down.
EA FC 25 relies so heavily on Servers. The game’s biggest modes include Rivals, Champions, Rush, and Squad Battles, and the Servers can ruin any matches in the blink of an eye. It’s always been a complaint and one that likely isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
It’s not always EA’s fault EA FC 25 doesn’t work though. Xbox might have issues, but so might Sony and its PlayStation Network. Let’s look into the state of PSN for you right now to see if there’s a hitch in the formation.
Are EA FC 25 Servers Down Right Now on PlayStation?
You should be able to play EA FC 25 online after the servers were restored from the PlayStation Network outage on February 8.
Not since the 2011 PlayStation Network outage has PSN been down this long. Alas, this is the case as Sony’s solid infrastructure is down for maintenance. You might have been unaware of this happening, so let’s fill you in on the timeline.
The early hours of February 8 saw the PlayStation Network go down for maintenance across the board. This prevented players from accessing any PlayStation Network Services—crucially, online multiplayer being one.
PlayStation has been very hush-hush throughout the outage, outside of one message for the community during and one after. The company’s Ask PlayStation X page communicated a message to PS users: “We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN.“
EA FC 25 is currently playable on all formats as EA servers are working. If you do have access to EA FC 25 on another platform, you can still play online if you need a fix.
We have an up-to-date PSN Server Status tracker monitoring the PlayStation Network’s status. Keep checking back with Insider Gaming for breaking updates.
The PlayStation Network is having a detrimental effect on all online multiplayer gaming. Fortnite, GTA, Call of Duty, and Marvel Rivals are all high-profile casualties throughout the maintenance.
Do you think PlayStation and Sony should be more vocal throughout this? Are PS users going to be handed a free game or two to make up for the chaos? Only time will tell. Drop a comment to let us know what you think about all of this.
They should give us free playstation plus all year again like 2011
I pay a subscription to play FC25 online, why should I pay when not getting the service ???
Appreciate the issue is being worked on but I’m told it’s nearly 24 hours now, surely the issue should be resolved by now…………..
