How to play Ultimate Team with friends
EA FC 26 Ultimate Team is even better if you bring a friend along, as it lets you share the load and earn rewards together. So, here’s a full breakdown of how it’s done.
Ultimate Team co-op explained
To play Ultimate Team co-op, you need to look for the “Play with a Friend” option when selecting your mode. It’s not available on every mode, but it can be used on Squad Battles, Division Rivals, Rush, and Live Events, whereas Champions can only be played solo.
EA SPORTS / DexertoOnce found the right mode, select it and you’ll be taken to a screen where you can invite your friends. On Rush, you’ll be able to invite three other players, while on everything else, you’ll be limited to one.
Simply select the ‘Plus’ icon, and a menu will open showing all of your eligible friends, whether they’re on the same platform or a different one using crossplay.
EA SPORTS / DexertoOnce everyone is in the lobby, all that’s left to do is search for a match. The only slight downside is that if you want to switch to a different mode, then you’ll have to end the co-op session and invite everyone again.
