How to Access the EA Social Widget
The FC 25 EA Social allows you to search, add, and send/receive invites across platforms.
You can easily access the EA Social widget at any time:
- Following the on-screen button prompt in the bottom right corner of the FC 25 main menu (pressing R2/RT);
- From additional screens throughout the game, including game mode menus and within the pause menu of online multiplayer matches.
- Friends;
- Game Invites;
- Friend Requests;
- Player Search;
- Recently Met.
Friends
The Friends tab in EA Social displays both friends added through your local platform’s friend list and those added via the EA Network. While the lists are distinct, both are shown in the EA Social Friends List and support invites across all relevant game modes in Football Club 25.
The Friends List indicates who’s online and offline, along with their platforms. An icon denotes cross-play incompatibility, providing information on players who can’t join your game. Local platform friends are listed first, followed by cross-platform friends in both the online and offline sections.
Recently Met
This tab operates much like a friends list, keeping track of the last 30 players you’ve played with or against in Football Club. It includes individuals not currently on your EA Social friends list.
When you select a player from the list, you can send a friend request, block them, mute them, or report them for an offensive name.
Player Search
FC 25 EA Social automatically displays all existing platform friends on the Friends tab. To play with people on other platforms, you must search and add them through EA Social.
How to add a Player to your List
- From the main screen, press R2/RT to enter in the EA Social widget;
- Press R1/RB to navigate to [Player Search];
- Type the ID of your friend;
- Select [Add friend].
Game Invites
Within EA Social, you can send and receive Game invites from players on the same platform and cross-platform invites. This allows you to find invites in one central location without navigating elsewhere.
Receiving
When an invite is sent from the same platform, you receive the standard platform-specific invite notification on your screen that can be accepted or declined.
At the same time, an additional invitation is also sent through EA Social. No on-screen notification appears for the EA Social invite when sent from the same platform, but you can find the invite within the Game Invites tab in EA Social.
Sending
All game mode invites are now processed through the EA Social widget. Two invite flows appear in-game:
- Full EA Social invite experience, implemented within Clubs Drop-ins;
- EA Social Friend Picker Invite, featured across the remaining game modes that support invites.
Friend Requests
Similar to game invites, friend requests show any requests sent to you by another player through EA Social.
This notification allows you to accept or decline the friend request. If missed, the red indicator appears on the EA Social widget, leading you to the request in the Friend Requests tab.
Upon acceptance, the new EA Network friend connection is added to your friend’s list, displaying their platform icon, platform name, and online/offline status.

- Type the ID of your friend;

- Online Status (only EA titles if cross-platform friend only);
- Lobby Status (within Football Club);
- Invite compatibility (if they are incompatible players);
- Access additional Player Actions: mute, remove friends, block, and report.
Offline local platform friends are shown with their platform name and respective platform indicator icon. If the offline friend has been added exclusively via EA Network, the EA Account ID is displayed alongside an EA-themed icon.
Platform indicator icons help represent which platform a player within FC and EA Social is playing on. When using the widget, you can identify those currently playing on the same platform as you, with all other platforms appearing as a generic platform icon.
When performing a search, you will see all matches across the various platforms and their respective platform indicator icons.
When searching for a friend, the search is not case sensitive, but it does require an exact match to find a player successfully. For example, if you are searching for a player called “EASPORTSFC”, you won’t be able to find them if you only search for “EASPORTSF”.
You have the option to manage when you would like to see certain notifications through the widget’s settings. The three available notification settings are:
- Allow notifications to display whenever they come in;
- Do not show notifications during gameplay;
- Never show notifications.

The red indicator badge on the screen’s bottom right-hand corner informs you that you’ve received an invitation through EA Social, and it can be viewed by following the on-screen button prompt.
No. You can only select and send an invite to a valid player within your friend’s list. This list has already filtered out invalid players automatically due to reasons such as
- Game Mode does not support cross-play;
- Player doesn’t have an Ultimate Team Club;
- Player has not opted into cross-play.
The Full EA Social Invite Experience brings up the full EA Social screen and allows you to navigate the full functionality of EA Social. This allows you to accept, search and request new friends before sending an invite, all within the same screen. This invitation flow also shows whether the target game mode can support cross-play game invitations.
A cross-platform game invitation can only be seen within EA Social. When received, EA Social displays an on-screen notification that enables you to accept or decline the invite. Notifications from EA Social can appear throughout the game and while in gameplay. Still, they can only be interacted with in gameplay through a specific button callout to not interfere with the match being played.
