Game freezes/crashes when opening Squad Battles

When I try to launch Squad Battles mode, the game shuts down. Rivals, Moments, and Rush modes work normally... But with Squad Battles, a DOWNLOADING.. splash screen briefly appears, and then the game completely closes.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue, and does anyone have a solution?

Id like to get points for SB rewards, but i cant play..

UPDATE: It is account problem, because SB works for my friend, but when he log in with my account, same thing happen.
Please fix it!

UPDATE 2: I tried with his account on my PC too.. everything works fine.. so it is for sure acc problem.

Hi, 

On FC 26 Ultimate Team, my game crashes every time I attempt to select the 'play squad battles' option. I have been able to play every other game mode, including moments, rivals and the mini tournament and the rest of it has functioned fine. However, if I attempt to play squad battles my game glitches for 2 seconds with 'downloading' and then closes as if I alt-f4'd. 

I've tried repairing the game, restarting my PC and copy/pasting my squad.

I've tried to find if anyone else has a similar issue but cannot find anything or any fixes currently.

Thank you!

I have the same problem. 

I also tried some steps from EA Help chat, but it doesn't help.. Please fix this, because i dont have access to transfer market, and only way to get it is to play featured squad in SB..

It is account problem, because SB works for my friend, but when he log in with my account, same thing happen.
Please fix it!

Eveything works fine until i try to play squad battles eveytime i choose quad battles it starts downloading and crashes

For sure account problem.. I tried with another account on my pc, and everything works fine. 

PS5 version, everything time click on squad battle and then it pop out and say error, report the error through the console many times, deleted game and reinstall but problem still exists!

When I want to start the match in squad battles I get a black screen.

I have to unlock the transfer market through tasks that include 3 squad battle games, but when I start SB the game crashes, with Rivals etc not. Why? My EA account has no violations either

I tried:

Empty chache, reinstall game, change dns server

The game completely crashes when I try to enter the squad battle lobby. When i try to play solo or I invite a friend to join for squad battles it crashes, but when I join a friend for his squad battle the game works fine. Other game modes work fine too, just not squad battles.

Everything is up-to-date, game is reinstalled multiple times.
