Fall Guys Stuck on Looking For Players Screen - How to Fix

Fall Guys is one of the most popular and cute games out there and resembles the popular show Takeshi's Castle. It's a game that you want to come back to again and again but sometimes. However, sometimes, you might get stuck on Looking for Players screen even though there are a lot of players playing the game. 

If this is happening with you right now, there are a bunch of different reasons for the same. We have explained what this issue means and what you can do to potentially fix it.

How to fix Fall Guys stuck on Looking for Players Screen?

If you are stuck on Looking for Players screen in Fall Guys, the game will try to fill up the server with 60 players again and again. As long as there are less than 60 players, the game won't begin. 

There are several reasons for that to happen. One of them is that the Fall Guys servers might be having issues, and in that case, you can check the server status by going to the official Fall Guys Twitter handle or websites like Downdetector. 

Recently, the game just went free-to-play and the massive traffic might have caused this issue to appear as well. 

we are aware that some players are unable to matchmake right now!

will bake us a new cake though

If the servers are down or experiencing issues, you will have to wait for them to start running normally before playing the game. 

However, if this is not the case, you might be having an internet connection issue, and if that is so, you can fix them by restarting your router or Wi-Fi.

If the issue is still not fixed, we recommend you to quit the game through the Task Manager and then restart it again. You can do it by right-clicking on the taskbar and then clicking on the Task Manager option. After that, you will have to spot Fall Guys in the Processes list, right-click on it, and then hit the End Task option.

If you are playing on PlayStation or Xbox, you will have to close the application there as well and restart the game.

If none of these fixes work, try re-installing Fall Guys on your system and that should solve the problem.
