Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout was a hit on the development track for Mediatonic, but the game isn't without startup issues. There are a range of issues that can affect players, so we've gathered everything we know about these issues in this article.
Server instability
Servers can go down quite regularly for maintenance. The team has set up a Twitter page specifically for all server and technical issues with the game. You can find it under "Fall Guys Server Owl." This is the first place to check if you're having trouble logging into the game.
Connection errors
There's not much you can do about connection errors other than check what the Twitter account linked above says. The game has had a lot of people trying to connect, so if the servers are down and only recently came back, a long queue of people trying to connect could be causing a problem.
Stuck on loading screen
If you get stuck on a loading screen, this appears to be an issue where the server attempting to establish player connections, establish lobbies, and start games is experiencing stability issues.
You can try the following steps to fix this problem, but it's probably a server-side issue:
- Check out the Fall Guys Server Owl Twitter account
- Restart your PlayStation 4 or PC
- Restart your router
Game freezes when trying to quit
Some players have reported issues with the game crashing when trying to quit the app. On PlayStation 4, you'll need to go to the homepage, select the game, and then close it from there. On PC, use Alt+Ctrl+Del to bring up Task Manager, then close the application.
