Not to be annoying, but I’m stuck on the loading screen that just says “connecting” and I don’t understand why my game won’t connect at all. My buddy started trying to load in after I did, and he got in flawlessly.

We hope the developers soon address the annoying connection issue for MultiVersus players on Xbox.

As always, we will be updating this article when a fix is out so keep checking this space.

Update 1 (July 22)

10:59 am (IST): A Redditor has suggested that this bug could be related to Xbox’s Wi-Fi connectivity as they were able to resolve it by connecting their console to LAN.

If you don’t have a LAN cable, then you can also try connecting your mobile hotspot using a USB cable and see if it works.

I think the problem is the wifi connection b/c I was able to play the game when I connect my Lan cable to my Xbox. If you don’t have one just turn in your mobile hotspot and connect your console into it. (Source)

Update 2 (July 27)

01:02 pm (IST): It appears that this issue is also affecting PlayStation players. However, a PS4 player has managed to resolve it by performing the following steps.

Workaround: I closed the game and restarted my ps4 and it worked (Source)

Update 3 (July 29)

06:28 pm (IST): According to the latest status update from the team regarding the disconnection error, it’s still under investigation with no ETA for a fix.

Update 4 (August 08)

05:53 pm (IST): One of those affected has shared another workaround that might help you get rid of the connectivity issue. You can check it out below.

FIXED IT !!! Im playing on PS5 tried everything hard reset, reinstall, portforward, DNS, etc etc. But got it fixed ! Changed my IP address in network settings and made a fixed IP on PS5 this did the trick for me ! Hopefully somebody else can use this. (Source)

Update 5 (August 16)

10:30 am (IST): Along with Xbox, many Play Station and PC players are also reporting (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) the issue where MultiVersus is not connecting or disconnecting for them.

Gamers say that every time they try to join a game, it disconnects them with an error message saying ‘MultiVersus Error! You have disconnected’. Here are some reports from those affected:

After about ten seconds of entering an online or offline game I get booted out to the lobby where i get a message in the top right of my screen where it says Error! You have disconnected. (Source)

Every match I go into I get kicked out along with the same message “error you have disconnected”. I have been trying since launch and till now in season 1 and I still get the same message every game I get into in every game mode. (Source)

There seems to be a bug where every time you join a game, custom or online, it disconnects you with an error message. Just me? Other people having this issue? Looking for feedback. (Source)

Luckily, this is a known issue and MultiVersus devs are currently investigating it. However, there’s no ETA for the fix yet.
