Community ManagerHello, @Albino-Fish00
Child accounts are restricted from online play if they are under the age of 13. You can find more information on this here.
This is certainly the case for FIFA23 and FIFA22
This is not the case for EAFC24 however.
The game is advertised on the PS Store as a PEGI-3 game yet it cannot even be LAUNCHED on PS4 unless the child account is set to an age restriction level of 12+
Even if parental controls are relaxed completely, this does not allow a child to play any of the online aspects of the game. Again, this is not the experience with FIFA22 or FIFA23.
EA Sport FC24 is NOT following the PlayStation 4 parental controls.
I am having the same issues.
This needs to rectified immediately.
I have relaxed all parental controls and still its not working for my son the game is rated a 3 and therefore should have access at aged 11.
he has also not received any of his rewards!!
Same here. 11 year old son who got this for Christmas and cannot access any network features. Farcical.
Any luck? We have the same issue
Hallelujah!!!!! I finally fixed it!
I was about to give up on this as Ive tried every combination of parental controls available.
FC24 will only let your child play online if their Playstation Network account is aged 13 or over. It doesnt matter what your parental controls are set to.
To make it work, simply set up another PSN account and make sure your child is at least 13 and it will work.
You can always control age limits on other software through Parent Controls on the PSN app.
Voila! I have a very happy boy now.
Crazy thing is he only wanted to update the squads and wasnt really bothered about playing online. LOL
The more farcical point is that what you did is what loads of other people do, completely circumventing the previously mentioned "regulations", rendering them humiliatingly pointless.
I don't disagree with what you did btw.
Has someone found a solution??
Has the EA moderator disappeared without suggesting any solution? That’s a joke.
Me and other parents (and children) have the same problem. We have 5 boys aged 10-12 who can’t play together although the parental restrictions on Ps4 for communication are not restricted.
Can EA give us a solution to our problem??
or can someone help us fix it 🙏🏼
