Last updated
Experiencing trouble with Fall Guys running on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone. Let’s dive into why this might be happening and how you can possibly fix it.
So, you’ve just downloaded Fall Guys on your Nintendo Switch, ready for some knockabout fun, but it’s not working. What gives? Let’s find out.
Common Reasons Fall Guys May Not Work
Several reasons could explain why Fall Guys isn’t playing ball on your Nintendo Switch. One common issue is a weak internet connection. Fall Guys needs a stable online connection to play, so check your internet first.
Another possibility is that the game servers are temporarily down. Game servers can go offline due to maintenance or unexpected issues. Checking Fall Guys’ official Twitter account can give you updates on server status.
Software Updates and Compatibility Issues
Your Nintendo Switch might need a software update. Keeping your console’s software updated ensures that games run smoothly. Also, make sure that Fall Guys itself is updated to the latest version.
In some rare cases, the issue might stem from compatibility problems. Ensure your Nintendo Switch model supports the game fully. While Fall Guys should work on all models, it’s always good to double-check.
