Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has been a hit on the track for Mediatonic development, but the game is not without startup issues. There is a range of issues that can affect players, so we've put together everything we know about these issues in this article.
Server instability
Servers can fall quite regularly for maintenance reasons. 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 signing in to the game.
Connection errors
There isn't much you can do about login errors other than check what the Twitter account linked above says. The game has attracted a lot of people trying to log in, so if the servers are down and have only recently returned, a long queue of people trying to log in may be causing an issue.
Stuck on loading screen
If you are stuck on a loading screen, this seems to be an issue where the server trying to establish connections between players, establish lobbies, and start games is experiencing stability issues.
You can try the following steps to resolve this issue, but it is most likely a server side issue:
- Check out the Fall Guys Server Owl Twitter account
- Restart your PlayStation 4 or PC
- Restart your router
The game freezes when you try to quit
Some players have reported issues with the game freezing when trying to exit the app. On PlayStation 4, you'll need to go to the home page, select the game, and then close it from there. On PC, use Alt + Ctrl + Del to bring up Task Manager, then close the application.
