If the servers are down, then you have can wait for them to go back online. But, in case the servers are working then you can try some of these general fixes:

  • Test your connection: If the servers are fine then you might be having issues with your internet connection. You can check your internet by playing other online games or by doing a speed test.
  • Restart your system: You can simply restart your PC or console, once it restarts try playing the game again. This might feel like a very basic fix, but it works wonders in many situations.
  • Refresh your connection: Your internet might be working but not as it is supposed to or at a stable pace. And you can fix that by refreshing your connection. If you play wirelessly you can reboot your router to refresh it. And if you play via a wired connection then simply plug out and plug in the Ethernet cable after waiting for a couple of seconds.
