'FIFA 20': EA Reveals FIFA 20 TOTW Squad, EA Servers Down Due To FIFA Popularity

Electronic Arts are making a huge announcement this week. The gaming behemoth has finally revealed to the gaming world the latest "FIFA 20" Team of the Week squad, which includes two Premier League players. Some of the highlights include the more lethal Adama Traoré and aggressive Papu Gómez.

The much-awaited "FIFA 20" TOTW 4 squad will go live at exactly 6 p.m. U.K. time. Also, at that time, the brand new FUT cards will be made available in packs. The new FUT cards will give players an Ultimate Team rating boost. However, this will be based on how well the players have performed in their real-life games.

About the TOTW

For a starter, the Team of the Week or TOTW is basically a weekly squad of the most in-form players' card in FUT, with EA taking the pick from 18 to 23 players. The game publisher selects the players from the list to make up this elite squad every week. The selection process is based on the best real-world performances made by the football player over the past week from football leagues. EA announces an update for TOTW every Wednesday.

EA servers down due to FIFA 20 worldwide popularity and usage

Last week, the "FIFA 20" servers went down around 4 p.m. EST, along with other video games under the EA umbrella. These include "Battlefield 5" and the popular battle royale game "Apex Legends." The EA official support account quickly announced the technical issue on Twitter, saying that EA is having some connectivity problems with its video games.

Shortly after that tweet was posted, the official EA account tweeted that the company was also aware of issues logging onto help.ea.com. The company is pointing to an especially irritating player seeking answers for downed servers. The EA’s help site has also suffered some technical issues.

Gaming website PC gamer reported, earlier, that EA servers have crashed due to the worldwide popularity of "FIFA 20." The massive outage has, reportedly, affected EA servers worldwide.
