Reports on social media suggest that the issue is leaving players unable to connect to FIFA Ultimate Team.

Screenshots shared online show an error message that appears when people attempt to connect to the online multiplayer mode.

The message reads: “We are sorry but there has been an error connecting to FIFA 22 Ultimate Team. You will be returned to the FIFA 22 Main Menu.”

Hundreds of people have reported the problem to the website DownDetector, which monitors online outages.

Half of those reports point the finger at server issues, while 39 per cent of complaints are related to the game’s login system.

EA Sports, the developer that makes the FIFA games, has not yet acknowledged the downtime.

The Sun has reached out to EA for comment.
