EA FC 24 has announced that a scheduled maintenance break will take place on August 21, 2024. Players will be unable to access any online features of the game during this period. EA FC 24 servers have been muddied lately and this could be a potential cause for the scheduled maintenance. That being said, EA hasn't listed any official cause of why this maintenance will take place.

Taking to X, the developer mentioned that the maintenance break will span about 6 hours. This is slightly odd, considering that it is late August and no major promo or game updates are due to be introduced. Fans have voiced their surprise in the comments section under the official post on X.

The EA FC 24 maintenance break will take place from 8:00 UTC to 14:00 UTC on August 21. Match creation will be disabled 30 minutes before the scheduled time. This maintenance break will affect all the players in the world and will impact players on all platforms. The allotted time for this maintenance is 6 hours, which indicates that some big changes might be introduced to the title.

A huge number of players are grinding the 84+ X10 unlimited packs and that could be a reason why the servers feel a bit muddied lately. EA could be bringing a fix to those issues with this maintenance update.

EA could also be targeting the Ultimate team card glitch and the Ultimate team moments problem. However, that seems quite unlikely because EA has been letting those problems exist in the game for months. The chances of them fixing such minor issues at the end of the game's cycle are minimal.

This update could also be for an upcoming promo, the last for this season. It could also be because new Season rewards are going to be introduced into the game on August 22. While no one is really sure what this update is about, we will surely receive some compensation for this maintenance.

The maintenance could affect players who have not completed the Season ladder to grab the 99 Haaland yet. Other fans also mentioned that they would be unable to complete Rivals due to this 6-hour-long update. Since there has been no official word from EA yet, we will have to wait for the scheduled maintenance to end to figure out the reason behind it.
