Can't connect to EAFC 26 UT (PSN Network connections works)

I cannot launch EAFC UT PS5 Version on the ps5 digital version. It just says: "In order to access the online features for this title you must be signed to Playstation Network and must be signed in to the EA Servers" - However, I am able to launch UT on the same console but the PS4 Version, which is weird. Tried the steps on the website: ea.com/unable.to-connect but nothing helped. The last time I was able to log in was on 21st March around 1 pm
