I have a PS5, and bought FIFA21 with it for my son. He's 7, so not in the EA teen account range, however he was able to sign into EA's servers in order to play FUT. Not sure why he needed to sign in to play it offline, but there you go.
Now, he's seen videos about The Journey and FIFA21 doesn't have this, so we got him FIFA18 as a treat for working hard at school. When he tries to play FUT, it won't let him onto the EA servers, apparently because he's not 13 or over. So anyone know why he can do it in 21 but not 18? Is there a way round it, other than creating a new EA account and lying in the age bit?
