Is College Football 25 down? Current server status

EA College Football 25 gets a lot right, but just like other EA Sports games, it is prone to server issues that can prevent players from logging in.

The title has amassed a massive audience while recording more than 5 million unique players during its first week. However, the large pool of players has resulted in some major server problems.

If you’re facing these issues while attempting to log in, here’s College Football 25’s server status.

We’ll be sure to update this page once the servers are back online.

Shortly after the early access period kicked off, the game did suffer from server congestion but these issues have now been addressed. The servers were likely overwhelmed by the amount of traffic on early access launch day, as the title attracted more than 500,000 concurrent players.

If you’re still facing login issues when the servers are functional, we suggest trying out these fixes:

• Check your connection: Make sure your connection and internet speeds are stable.
• Check for updates: In case the problem persists, hop out of the game and check if CFB25 has received an update.
  • PS5: Navigate to the game tile, press the ‘Options’ button on your controller, and then select ‘Check for Updates.’
  • Xbox Series X/S: Go to ‘My Games and Apps,’ scroll all the way down to select ‘Manage,’ and then go to ‘Updates.’
• Contact EA Support: As a final resort, you can try to contact EA to receive support regarding the problem.
