If Epic Games is not loading for you
- Check whether the problem is the store or website, or the game servers. They can fail separately.
- Restart the game launcher and the game, and check for a pending update.
- Check the publisher’s official status page or social account for maintenance announcements, which are common on update days.
- Wired connections and restarting your router fix many matchmaking and login problems.
- Try a different network or turn off your VPN, because some game services block VPN traffic.
