[Updated] For Honor 'Matchmaking has failed error 00032148270097' on PlayStation consoles acknowledged

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on March 03, 2022) follows:

For Honor arrived in 2017 as a new Ubisoft IP based on 1v1 melee combat. However, it’s not the classic fighting game you’re used to.

For Honor bases its gameplay on third-person camera matches where every move you make must be well calculated. Also, the fighters are very different from each other thanks to their different classes.

Ubisoft represented in the game the fighting style of iconic classes from world history such as Vikings, Knights and Samurais, among others. Each class has its own combat style, strengths and weaknesses.

However, lately many For Honor players on PlayStation consoles have been facing connectivity issues that prevent them from enjoying the online mode of the game (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14).

Many For Honor players are getting a ‘Matchmaking has failed error 00032148270097’ message while trying to find an online match.

According to multiple reports, the issue can appear in any online game mode. In addition, it can last for many hours during which it is impossible to play.

Matchmaking error when i queue

Basically any game mode i queue on will search for a second then come up matchmaking error, restarted mutiple times and came back hours later still not working, is it server issues? I checked for honor servers and said it was fine so i dont know tbh.

So far, nothing players have tried to resolve or mitigate the issue has helped.

How do I fix “Matchmaking failed. Returning to menu. [00032148270097]” ???

I just got on the game today and wanted to play but very time I try to enter a match it gives me a matchmaking failed message after like 1 second of searching. I’ve tried restarting my Internet and whatnot but the best result I got was a whole 3 seconds of matchmaking before getting the message, I’ve seen other posts on various websites talking about this, however no fix is posted.

Apparently, the problems started after the most recent maintenance to the game servers. Also, the For Honor ‘Matchmaking has failed error 00032148270097’ appears to only affect players on PlayStation consoles.

The issue can occur randomly between profiles, so not all players on PlayStation are facing it. However, there seems to be a considerable number of affected players, judging by the number of reports.

The Ubisoft team is already aware of the issue and are looking into it. Meanwhile, the company continues to request related feedback from players.

Thank you! Our team is currently looking into this further. To gather more information for the team, could you also share the PSN profile used when receiving this error message and the internet service provider you are using?
