FIFA 13 Ultimate Team is down today, January 18, for maintenance and will remain down for another 3 and a half hours, during which the FIFA Ultimate Team, the Web app, and the mobile companion app will be offline.

FIFA 13 broke sales records when it came out in September and continues to sell well all around the world.

Its Ultimate Team mode is arguably one of its greatest features and it's attracted a lot of players to the FIFA series as a whole.

Sadly, the service is down today, January 18, from 12am PT until 3:30am PT (8am-11:30am GMT), according to the EA Sports Twitter account.

During this time, the FIFA Ultimate Team service, the web application, the mobile companion app, and the EA Sports Football Club will be offline.

Other game modes and multiplayer won't be affected.
