FC 25 MATCHMAKING
The FC 25 Matchmaking system works based on your geographic location, your current form, and your platform.
How to Find an Opponent
Do you know when, before a match, the system fails to find an opponent for you or when the opponent is much better or worse than you? And when the game frequently freezes? These things can happen because you are not familiar with how the system works to match you with another person in online games. If this is your case, do not worry because we will explain everything.
FC 25 Matchmaking is designed to create fair and competitive
Additionally, Football Club 25 implements a ranking system that tracks player performance, allowing for more accurate matchmaking based on skill progression. By continuously analyzing player data and adjusting matchmaking parameters, FC 25 aims to provide balanced and exciting gameplay for all participants.
Generally speaking, EA Sports FC 25 online matchmaking system works based on three main factors:
- Your Location;
- Your Current Form;
- Your Platform.
Location
Location plays a significant role in the matchmaking process of FC25. The game considers the geographical proximity of players when searching for opponents. This is done comparing
The main objective behind this approach is to minimize latency or lag between players, ensuring a smoother and more responsive gameplay experience. By pairing players who are physically closer to each other, the game minimizes the distance that data packets must travel, resulting in reduced latency and more stable connections. This contributes to preserving the integrity of online matches and fosters a fair and competitive environment for players.
Furthermore, prioritizing proximity in matchmaking can enhance the overall gameplay experience by decreasing the likelihood of connectivity issues and ensuring an equitable playing field for all participants.
If you prefer not to be matched primarily with someone geographically close to you, you have the option to request that the matchmaking system disregard location.
How to Disable Approximate Location Matchmaking
- From the main FC25 screen, navigate to [Settings];
- Select [Online Settings];
- Select [Matchmaking Options];
- Change [Approximate Location Matchmaking] to ‘No’.
Current Form
In Football Club 25, current form is one of the factors that can influence matchmaking. The game takes into account the recent performance of players when searching for opponents.
This means that if you’ve been performing well and achieving positive results in your previous matches, the system may pair you with opponents who have a similar current form. Conversely, if your recent performances have been less successful, the matchmaking system may match you with opponents who are also experiencing a similar form.
This approach helps to create more balanced and competitive matches, ensuring that players are appropriately challenged based on their recent performances.
It’s important to note that form does not carry over between different competitions. When you start a Play-Offs or Finals, your form is initially set to zero, and it will be based on your performance within that specific competition. This ensures that matches are fair and competitive, as you’ll be facing opponents who are on a similar form trajectory as you in that particular tournament.
Platform
The platform you are playing on can affect matchmaking in FC 25. The game takes into consideration the platform you are using when searching for opponents. For example, if you are playing on a specific gaming console or PC platform, the matchmaking system will only search for opponents who are also playing on the same platform.
This ensures compatibility and enhances the online gaming experience. Matching players on the same platform promotes smoother connectivity, consistent gameplay, and access to platform-specific features or functionalities.
If you want to be matched with players from other platforms, you need to enable the cross-play feature.
How to Enable Cross-Play
- From the main FC25 screen, navigate to [Customise];
- Select [Onlinse Settings];
- Select [Matchmaking Options];
- Change [Cross-play Enabled] to ‘Yes’.

Matchmaking is different depending on whether you are playing in Division 1 to 10, or you are playing the Elite Division.
Divisions 10–1
For both Solo and Co-Op Matchmaking for Divisions 10–1, you’ll matchmake with players based on two different factors:
– Your location. This determines which FC Game Data Center location will be used for your match.
– Your Rank. This means you’ll be matched with players that have a similar Rank as you.
Elite Division Matchmaking
Elite Division Matchmaking in Division Rivals is based on two different factors:
– Your location. This determines which FC Game Data Center location will be used for your match.
– Your Skill Rating. You’ll play with players who are close to the same Skill Rating as you. As long as you have a 2200 Skill Rating or above, you’ll matchmake as if you had a 2200 Skill Rating. This is to help make it easier for higher-skilled players to find matches.
The Skill Rating factor has a larger range on the PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S versions of Football Club 25 to better accommodate the player base on these platforms.
