A fresh server maintenance has been announced for College Football 26, and it will take the game offline for at least a few hours, if not more.
The latest maintenance comes immediately after the full launch on July 9, and it will partially disrupt your in-game experience. EA Sports hasn't announced the exact reason behind the maintenance, but we know when the servers will be taken down.

College Football 26 server maintenance schedule
The server maintenance scheduled on July 10 starts at 6am ET/5am CT/3am PT. EA Sports seems to be following the same pattern as College Football 25, which is great news. But the first update can be longer than routine maintenance later in the year.
As of writing, there's no official end time for the maintenance. If I had to predict, I feel that the servers should be up at 10am ET/9am CT/7am PT. Typically, the first few maintenance sessions last year were all between four and five hours long. There was an exception in the case of a couple of maintenance that were extended at short notice. If that happens, today's maintenance can go on for a longer time.
If there's a confirmed timeframe for when the server maintenance will be over, we will update it from our end. The same applies to any unnecessary delay that might also happen during the maintenance.
Which College Football 26 modes will be unavailable?
When the maintenance is live, you can still play and enjoy the game. However, certain modes will be unavailable until the servers are back. This includes CUT (College Football Ultimate Team), which will be completely out of order. Any attempt to matchmake will result in an error.
The same rule applies for online friendlies as well, which won't be possible without the servers. Additionally, the Team Builder website will be out of order. Any attempt to create, edit your creations, or share your fantasy team will result in an error until the servers are back on track.
