EA FC 25 is currently down on PS5 due to issues with the PSN servers

PlayStation has directly addressed the disruption by posting on the X/AskPlayStation account, notifying gamers that they are aware of the issues plaguing PSN servers. With this service being a necessity for all online titles, fans are currently unable to access EA FC 25 on PS5, which is one of the most popular platforms for the title.

This is a massive issue for gamers who possess the digital version of the console, as they require an online connection to access the titles they have purchased. With PSN servers experiencing downtime, these gamers will not be able to play any titles, including single-player offline ones.

For fans owning the disc version of the PlayStation 5, this outage will affect their ability to access online game modes, which include EA FC 25 Ultimate Team, Online Seasons, and Clubs.

Fans of the Ultimate Team game mode would like EA Sports to extend the ongoing Champions Finals tournament, providing gamers with more time to complete their games. The event is set to end on Tuesday (February 11, 2025), but a 24-hour extension could be in the works, as PlayStation servers were offline for a while.
