PS4 to PS5 Save Transfer: Can You Continue Your EA FC 25 Ultimate Team and Career Mode Progress?
The Cross-Gen Conundrum
Having recently made the PlayStation generational leap myself, I understand the existential dread of potentially losing 300 hours of meticulously crafted Career Mode tactics. The good news? Sony’s ecosystem does allow certain save transfers - but with more caveats than a FIFA license agreement.
Cloud Saves: Your Digital Safety Net
PS Plus members can breathe easier. Your PS4 EA FC 25 saves automatically upload to cloud storage, accessible on PS5 through:
- Settings > Saved Data and Game/App Settings
- Select “Saved Data (PS4)” > “Cloud Storage”
- Download desired files
Pro Tip: This works best when both consoles are logged into the same PSN account - about as obvious as telling Haaland to shoot near-post, but worth confirming.
The Ultimate Team Exception
Here’s where things get interesting. Unlike single-player modes, FUT progress is account-bound rather than save-file dependent. Simply log into your EA Account on PS5 and:
- All purchased/unlocked items remain
- Current squad and coins carry over
- Division Rivals ranking persists
The catch? You’ll need to download the dedicated PS5 version of EA FC 25 - the PS4 edition running via backward compatibility maintains separate FUT profiles. Classic EA making us work for simplicity.
Tactical Recommendations
Based on my testing across three console migrations this season:
- Initiate transfers during off-peak hours (cloud servers handle traffic like Arsenal handles title races - inconsistently)
- For Career Mode, manually export your manager profile as insurance
- Expect 5-10 minutes of sync time per save file
- When in doubt, consult EA’s hilariously vague support page (bring patience)
Remember lads - in football and console upgrades, always have a backup plan.

The Great Console Migration
Transferring your FUT squad from PS4 to PS5 is easier than convincing Mbappé to stay at PSG - just log into your EA account! But beware: the PS4 version running on PS5 creates parallel universes like Marvel’s multiverse, minus the cool costumes.
Cloud Saves: Not as Fluffy as They Sound
Your Career Mode tactics can hitch a ride via PS Plus cloud, provided you navigate Sony’s menu maze (hint: it’s hidden deeper than Haaland’s finishing skills). Manual exports recommended - because EA’s support page gives less guidance than a blindfolded referee!
Pro tip: Sync during off-peak hours unless you enjoy watching progress bars move slower than Maguire turning. ⚽💾 #NextGenStruggles
Salvar ou não salvar, eis a questão!
Migrar do PS4 pro PS5 é tipo tentar escalar o Cristo Redentor de chinelo - possível, mas cheio de obstáculos! A boa notícia? Seu Ultimate Team tá safe (ufa!). Mas o modo carreira… ai, meu amigo, só com backup na nuvem e muita reza pra São Google.
Dica quente: Se for transferir, faça de madrugada. Os servidores da EA são mais confiáveis que a defesa do Vasco em final de campeonato! E não esquece: baixa a versão PS5 do jogo, senão vai ter dois times pra cuidar - igual técnico da seleção em ano de Copa!
Alguém mais já perdeu saves nessa aventura? Conta aqui tua tragédia!
¡Respira tranquilo, tu FUT está a salvo!
Como buen argentino que ha sufrido migraciones de consola (y de técnicos en la selección), confirmo: tu Ultimate Team pasa intacto al PS5… aunque EA siempre pone trabas como si fueran la defensa del Atlético.
La Salvación en la Nube
Para el modo Carrera, el truco está en PS Plus: sube tus saves como si fueran goles en el Clásico. Solo necesitas:
- Mismo usuario PSN (obvio, como pedirle a Messi que pise un penal)
- Paciencia para esperar… ¡Menos que Scaloni para hacer cambios!
Pro tip: Exporta tu perfil de manager - por si acaso EA hace una de sus “actualizaciones sorpresa”. ¡Nos vemos en División Rivals con el PS5!
Cloud Saves: The Real MVP
Thank god for PS Plus cloud saves – the only thing more reliable than Haaland’s left foot. Just don’t forget to log into the same account (yes, Captain Obvious, we see you).
FUT Transfer Saga
Your Ultimate Team survives the console jump… but only if you download the correct version of EA FC 25. Classic EA – making cross-gen progress feel like negotiating a Neymar transfer.
Pro tip: Sync saves when servers aren’t busier than Stamford Bridge on derby day. And maybe sacrifice a controller to the football gods for good measure.

Cloud Saves: The Ultimate Emotional Rollercoaster
Just migrated my 300-hour Career Mode like it’s FIFA transfer deadline day! Pro tip: PS Plus cloud saves work smoother than Mbappé’s dribbling…unless EA’s servers pull a Tottenham and bottle it.
FUT Survivor Mode
Your Ultimate Team survives the console jump - but only if you download the correct PS5 version. Classic EA making us solve puzzles like we’re decrypting Pep’s tactics board! (Yes, I tested this more times than Arsenal’s title hopes)
