How to make EA app start offline?

I have no wifi for my computer currently, and wanted to play Fifa 22 offline. But I keep getting the "Temporarily lost connection" error - "you're currently offline. Check your internet connection while we try to reconnect you".

Is there a way for me to play Fifa 22 without using wifi??

    Hi @ImpKing72,

    You should be able to play the offline modes of the game while offline, however, you may need to first connect via Wi-fi to launch the EA app and update it if necessary. Once that's done, you can click on the top left menu and select Go offline. If you don't have Wi-fi available, you can try setting up a hotspot on your phone just to connect and then disconnect after you logged in. 

    I hope this helps, 

  • There is no way to start the app in offline mode - at this time, in order to launch the app, it has to have internet.  I recommend only purchasing EA games that are available in Steam, and never using their app again.
