Amazon Game Studios’ New World is possibly the best new MMORPG for a while. That doesn’t mean it’s without problems, however; the New World “Failed to join login queue” error message is preventing some users from playing the game. Login queues themselves are an inconvenience (if a necessary evil), but not being able to join one takes the cake. So, is there a quick and easy fix? Here’s the need-to-know info on the login queue failure bug.
New World ‘Failed to join login queue’ error fix
Here’s how to solve New World’s failed to join login queue glitch:
- Check @playnewworld for service status updates.
- No downtime? Close the New World game application.
- Reboot the PC hardware.
- Reset the internet router or modem.
- Switch from a Wi-Fi to a wired Ethernet connection, if possible.
- Check for a new game patch/hotfix.
- Download any new Nvidia or AMD GPU driver updates.
- Close all unnecessary background apps.
After performing all of the above steps, most players will be able to join the New World login queue successfully. More often than not, the login queue failure notification is due to server issues on the developer’s end. As a result, stepping away from the game for a few hours before returning to try again later is usually the best solution.
In the event that there aren’t any New World service issues causing the login connectivity error, there are several potential fixes. These include rebooting the game, the PC, and the relevant internet apparatus. If that doesn’t help, switching to an Ethernet connection and/or changing the network connection (using a mobile hotspot, for example) can also be a solution. Installing the latest updates can improve game stability, so be sure to check for those, while closing background apps can prevent run conflicts that may cause issues.
