Are you getting the “Failed to login, please check your connection” in Fall Guys?
The error happens because the date and time are not set correctly in your Nintendo Switch.
To fix this, you need to synchronize the clock via the internet in your date and time settings.
If you’re using PC, PS4/PS5, or Xbox, it means that the Fall Guys’ servers are full and you won’t be able to log in.
To fix this, you can either try verifying the game files, logging out and into Epic Games, or flushing your DNS.
