Redfall multiplayer not working properly has been a persistent problem since launch. The game is designed to be a four-player co-op game, but trying to find friends and connect to them to form a party can be harder than usual. It also doesn’t help that the game doesn’t have matchmaking, at least at launch. There can be numerous reasons why Redfall multiplayer isn’t working properly for you. Luckily, there are some possible fixes that will finally let you connect with other players in the game.
How to fix Redfall Multiplayer not working
Here is a list of possible fixes for Redfall multiplayer not working problems:
- Go to the game’s settings and make sure you’re connected to your Bethesda account in the Bethesda.net tab.
- If you’re playing the game by way of Xbox Game Pass, you’ll need to link your Bethesda ID to your Xbox Account from the Linked Accounts section.
- Check to make sure that Redfall’s multiplayer servers aren’t down. At that point, you likely won’t need to worry about multiplayer at all since that likely means you won’t be able to get into the game in the first place. But just in case, you can head to the Redfall Reddit or the official Redfall Twitter to see if other players are experiencing similar issues.
- Check the internet speed for both you and any of your friends. If any of you are having connection issues, you’ll need to fix those first.
- Close the game and restart it from beginning. You may want to restart your console too.
- Uninstall and re-install the game from scratch. Also ensure that you update Redfall to its latest version.
Additionally, you’ll need a constant online connection to play Redfall even if you only want to do single-player. So if you get an “Incompatible Build” error here, that could be the reason.
