EA FC 26 – Rush mode not finding teammates on Nintendo Switch.
I’m playing EA SPORTS FC 26 on Nintendo Switch and I’m unable to find matches in Rush mode.
The game stays on “Finding teammates” for about one minute and then automatically cancels with the message “Unable to find teammates”.
This happens consistently and is fully reproducible.
Other online modes (such as Division Rivals) work normally, so this is not a connection issue.
The main problem is that Rush mode is required to complete mandatory Ultimate Team objectives, and because I can’t find Rush matches, I’m blocked from progressing and from accessing the Transfer Market.
This is a clear progression blocker on Nintendo Switch.
I’ve already contacted EA Support and provided screenshots showing the issue. The case was registered and marked for further investigation.
I’m posting here to report the issue publicly and to check if other Nintendo Switch players are experiencing the same problem.
Update: Still unable to find Rush matches on Nintendo Switch.
Tried Late Join multiple times today with no success.
Update:
Managed to unlock the market after coordinating with multiple friends and entering Rush matchmaking together.
It appears to be a low matchmaking population issue on Nintendo Switch rather than account restriction.
