EA Sports FC 26 Update 1.000.008 Released on PS5, XSX and PC

Just a few days ago, EA released the v1.1.0 patch for EA Sports FC 26, which applied gameplay-related changes, bug fixes and a lot more.  Unfortunately that also came with issues.

Now, the EA Sports FC 26 update 1.000.008 file is available for download on PS5, Xbox Seres XIS and PC, with last-gen platforms getting it in the next couple of days.

With Microsoft's push for the Xbox brand to be multi-platform, no first-party franchise is spared, and that includes the former crown jeewl of the Xbox brand, Halo.

This is a minor update that focuses on stability above all else.

EA Sports FC 26 Update 1.000.008 Released as a Minor Patch

Per EA, “FC 26 v1.1.1 will soon be available on PS5/PC/XBSX|S and addresses a stability issue that was occurring throughout Football Ultimate Team as an unintended knock on effect of v1.1.0.”

Expect the patch to be available on other platforms in the coming days, though no specific date was given.

Aside from the patch, the dev team is also looking into a handful of known issues.

Investigating

• [UT] [Visual Issue] A visual issue occurs when viewing Rivals Weekly Rewards.
• [PC] Controller stops registering input during gameplay.
• [Matchmaking] Online matches can experience unexpectedly high ping.
• [PC] Graphic settings reset when entering Game Settings or changing settings tabs.
• [Clubs] Reward notifications are displayed on all Objectives tabs.
• [Clubs] An incorrect Golden Goal message could appear at the end of a Live Event match.
• [Kick Off] CPU slider changes may not save after switching AI behavior.
• [UT] The Home dropdown menu may become inaccessible.
• [Player Career] Tattoos added during avatar customisation may not be saved.
• [UT] Squad Assignments are not saved when entering a match.
• [Gameplay] Stadium shadows might be present even when the corresponding setting is off.
• [UT] [Visual Issue Only] Confetti cannons and trophies can appear on the pitch.
• [Clubs] Players may receive Connection to Lobby Lost error when searching for a League Match

There’s no word yet on when a patch to fix these issues will be released, but if I had to hazard a guess, it’be sometime in November.

Once the patch is out on last-gen platforms, we’ll let our readers know.
