How to Fix Fall Guys
Connection Issues

If Fall Guyswon't connect or keeps timing out, follow these steps in order. First, check the live status page to confirm whether it's a server-side outage or a local issue.

Step-by-Step Fix

Check Epic Games Status

Fall Guys runs on Epic infrastructure. Visit status.epicgames.com for current service status.

Restart the Epic Games Launcher

Fully close the Epic Games Launcher from the system tray, then relaunch and try again.

Check your NAT type

Open NAT is required for Fall Guys matchmaking. Enable UPnP in your router settings.

Use a wired connection

Ethernet reduces packet loss and prevents you from falling behind in physics-based rounds.

Verify game files

Epic Games Launcher: Fall Guys → three dots → Manage → Verify to repair corrupted files.

Restart your console

A full power-off restart (not sleep mode) clears console memory and fixes many transient connection issues.

Is it a server outage?

Check the live report chart — if dozens of players are submitting, it's on Mediatonic / Epic Games's end.
