What causes the MultiVersus Failed Patch error

Like most games in open beta, MultiVersus is still in a slightly broken state. Not just because of Taz’s overpowered tornado attack, either. If you go to load up MulitVersus and are greeted with an error message that says that a patch failed to load, then you’ve run into this particularly annoying bug. The Failed Patch error exactly means what it says – a patch wasn’t installed correctly and is preventing the player from connecting to the game’s servers. Sometimes it allows players to continue in offline mode, but you’ll need a more permanent solution if you want to access all the game’s features.

MultiVersus “Failed Patch” error fix

There are two known solutions for this bug. The first is to close MultiVersus. The game will check for patches and updates as it shuts down, installing them before closing. If the game tells you that it is installing an update, don’t force close it, or it can cause the error to continue. Load MultiVersus back up; most often, this sorts the bug out.

This fix will sort out the Failed Patch error in MultiVersus most of the time, but occasionally it will persist beyond reloading the program. In those cases, the best solution is to uninstall MultiVersus and reinstall it. This fix is a massive pain, but it should ensure that the game gets the patches and updates that it needs to run properly. There will likely be a better way to force an update when the game is out of open beta.
