How to fix FIFA not working
FIFA is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Restart the FIFA app and console
Close the game completely, then relaunch it. If it still fails, restart the console: on PS5, press the PS button, choose Power > Restart PS5; on Xbox, press the Xbox button, go to Profile & system > Restart console.
Check EA server status
Open the EA Help server status page and look for the game's listing before you change any local settings. If the page shows an outage, wait and try again later; if it does not, move to the next step.
Test the console connection
On PS5, go to Settings > Network > Test Internet Connection. On Xbox, go to Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings > Test network connection; use a wired connection if you have one.
Repair the FIFA install
On PC, open the EA app, go to Library, select the game, open the three-dot menu, and choose Repair. On PS5, go to Settings > Storage > Console Storage > Games and Apps, select the game, choose Delete, then reinstall it from your library.
While FIFA is down: what to use instead
- EA Help server status Check the official server status page to see if the game's online services are reported down.
- Offline modes Switch to a single-player mode or practice match if only online matchmaking is failing.
- eFootball Use Konami's football game as a temporary stand-in for online matches while the service is unavailable.
- Official website Open the official site for news and scores if the game will not load.

What happens when FIFA goes down
FIFA is the official football site from the sport's governing body, with news, scores, rankings and video for fans in the US and elsewhere. You use it for match updates or video, so an outage cuts off those checks.
When the service struggles, the home page or live match pages may fail to load first, and scores or rankings can sit on stale data. Video may stall, or the mobile site may load blank. Problems can be regional or partial: one platform or region may fail while the rest of the site works.

How we track FIFA
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for FIFA, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for FIFA, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from FIFA's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
