Please check your connection” error message, there's a good chance you have some kind of minor connection issue preventing the game from completing the authentication process. While it is possible the servers are down, there are a couple of things you can try on your end to fix this problem, so work your way through the steps in this guide.

How to Fix the Fall Guys “Failed to Login” Connection Error

Although the message points to an internet problem, the real cause is usually unrelated to basic connectivity. Server outages, incorrect regional routing, ISP-level routing faults, corrupted cache files, or broken configuration data can all prevent Fall Guys from forming a stable session with Epic Online Services. Even if your browser is working fine, you will want to check quite a few things. First, restart your Modem or Internet router and see what happens. If that doesn't do anything, make sure you aren't using a VPN or proxy.

Verify the Integrity of Game Files

Corrupted or missing installation files can break the login preparation process. Verifying these files forces your launcher to restore anything damaged.

  • Open your launcher.
  • Open your Library and select Fall Guys.
  • Right-click the game and choose Properties.
  • Open Installed Files and select Verify Integrity of Game Files.
  • Wait for the scan to finish, then attempt to log in again.

Note: If this doesn't work, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the game.

Connect Through a Mobile Hotspot

If your ISP is causing routing problems or your IP is temporarily blocked, using a mobile hotspot provides a fresh connection path. The login process uses only a small amount of data. If this works, you know there is a problem with your main connection that you need to figure out.

  • Enable mobile data and activate the hotspot on your phone.
  • Connect your PC to the hotspot.
  • Launch Fall Guys and attempt to log in.
  • After reaching the main menu, you can return to your normal Wi Fi connection.

Reset Your Network Adapter Settings

A full network reset rebuilds core networking components, including TCP IP, DNS, Winsock, and routing tables. This is effective when hidden misconfigurations block communication with Fall Guys servers.

  • Open Settings with Win and I.
  • Select Network and Internet.
  • Open Advanced Network Settings.
  • Under More Settings, choose Network Reset.
  • Select Reset Now and confirm.
  • Restart your PC and reconnect to your networks.

Delete Fall Guys Temporary Files and Registry Entries

If Fall Guys cache or configuration files become corrupted, the game may fail the login sequence. Removing these files forces Windows and the game to rebuild fresh configuration data. Your in-game progress will not be lost because it is stored on your Epic Games account.

  • Press Windows and R, type AppData, and press Enter.
  • Open the LocalLow folder.
  • Open Mediatonic.
  • Delete the FallGuys_client folder.
  • Press Windows and R and type regedit.
  • Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Mediatonic.
  • Delete the FallGuys entry.
  • Restart your PC and relaunch the game.
  • Verify the Integrity of Game Files
