FIFA 22 servers down? FUT server status
EA servers are currently offline!
The servers are indeed offline at the time of writing, meaning players can no longer jump into the game, match up with opponents, and play matches.
EA confirmed this themselves with a tweet from the FIFA Direct Communication account, saying they were investigating the problem and would update when a solution had been found.
We are investigating reports of some players being unable to connect to EA Servers at this time. We'll provide an update in this thread when available.

Next FIFA 22 server maintenance times
EA has announced the next FIFA 22 server maintenance is set for Thursday, June 9. The game will be taken offline for five hours in total, spanning 6AM-11AM UTC.
As always, you won’t be able to start up a new match in close proximity to the downtime, so don’t expect to create any new games in the 30-minute window ahead of maintenance.

How do you know if FIFA 22 servers are down?
Lagging in FIFA 22 online matches is one of the first indicators the servers could be touch and go.
Losing your connection during a game is also a sure sign that (1) your own internet connection is poor or (2) the FIFA 22 servers are down. Not being able to sign in to the EA servers using the menus, too, is a certain sign that they might be offline or undergoing maintenance.
