Anyone looking to start a match in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team is receiving an error message. When will the servers be fully online again?
This is the problem: Anyone currently wanting to start an online match in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team or Volta sees the following message instead of a starting match: “Joining a match is temporarily disabled. Sorry, this should be possible again shortly. Please try again later.” Matches are currently not possible.
FIFA 21 servers accessible again from late morning
Update, 11:50 AM: Creating matches is now active again.
Update, 11:00 AM: As of the current status, creating matches is still not active again.
When can you play again? As announced by the “FIFA Direct Communication” channel on Twitter, scheduled maintenance is currently being carried out. This is set to last from 08:00 AM (German time) to 11:00 AM late in the morning.
Creating matches has already been disabled half an hour earlier. Besides FIFA 21, the titles FIFA 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 are affected.
While players can generally still access the game and can engage in trading on the transfer market in FUT, for example, proper matches should only be possible again from 11:00 AM German time.
This is currently worth it in FIFA 21: As soon as the servers are back online, you can start normal matches again. There are currently several opportunities to secure strong rewards. For example, you can secure top striker Alexander Isak by completing some tasks. However, this will only be possible for a few more days, so you should hurry.
Additionally, the new Icon Swaps 3 have started. Here, you need to complete various tasks, mainly in friendly matches and Squad Battles. The rewards of Icon Swaps 3 are even really good this time.
Lastly, the qualification for the Weekend League is also currently ongoing. You can collect points in Division Rivals as usual to participate on the weekend. The Weekend League is currently more worthwhile than usual. Since the start of Team of the Year, the strong TOTS cards are in the Weekend League rewards.
