Evil Dead: The Game is out now, letting fans of the franchise hop into the shoes of both survivors and evil enemies. That is, assuming they can actually join a game. Unfortunately, players across PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch have encountered a pesky game connection error that prevents them from finding a match. The game sticks on a “Joining lobby” screen for a while, before eventually presenting a connection error to the justifiably frustrated player. Thankfully, there are some ways of working around this issue. Here’s how to fix the Evil Dead: The Game can’t join game connection error.
