So if you currently have no connection to the EA servers at FIFA 20, encounter the error code 100 at Apex Legends or who is shown the message »unable to connect« at Battlefield 5, you will probably have to wait a few moments before you can do it again can play.
You should also currently avoid making transactions of any kind in the affected games. Some players complain that they have not received in-game items in the form of a FIFA Starpass or FIFA Points. We recommend that you wait with your purchases until the problem has been resolved and the servers are running stable again.
When can you play again? The downtime was yesterday about seven to eight hours, so you may have to wait a little longer to fix the problem. If you want to know what the current status of the problem is, you should keep an eye on the Twitter account EA Help.
