Make Sure Your Accounts Are Linked

First, ensure your Epic Games account is linked to your Steam account. This is crucial for logging in through EOS, Palworld’s online service provider. If you haven’t already done so, link your accounts to the Epic Games website. Here’s how to do it in just a few steps:

  • On the Epic Games website:
    1. Log in to your Epic Games account. You can do this from the launcher or the website.
    2. Click on your username in the top right corner. This will open a drop-down menu.
    3. Select “Account” from the menu. This will take you to your account settings page.
    4. Click on “Connections” in the left-hand sidebar. This will show you a list of all your accounts connected to your Epic Games account.
    5. Click on “Connect” under the Steam logo. This will open a new window to log in to your Steam account.
  • On Steam:
    1. Log in to your Steam account. You’ll be prompted to do so if you’re not logged in.
    2. A pop-up will appear asking you if you want to authorize the connection. Click on “Authorize”.
    3. You’ll be redirected back to the Epic Games website. You should now see a message that your accounts are connected.

That’s it! Your Epic Games and Steam accounts are now linked. This is one of the easiest ways to fix the Failed EOS Login Palworld error. Right-click on the Palworld executable and select “Run as administrator”. If the game still gives you the EOS Timeout error, we will try manually downloading the latest EOS (Epic Online Services).

You can configure your firewall settings through your security software or operating system settings. Here’s how to grant an app or feature access through Windows Defender Firewall on Windows 11 or 10 for the Failed EOS Login Palworld error:

  1. Open Windows Security.
    • Click on the Start menu and type “Windows Security.”
    • Select Windows Security from the search results.

    • Click on Change settings. You might need administrator privileges to proceed.
    • If settings are greyed out, click Turn on developer mode (optional for troubleshooting).
  5. Find the App.
    • Two options:
      1. Locate the existing app.
        • Scroll through the list and check the box next to the app you want to allow.
      2. Add a new app.
        • If your app isn’t listed, click Allow another app.
        • In the “Add an app” window, choose the app or browse its location on your computer.
  6. Select Network Type.
    • Under Private and Public, choose the network types you want the app to access.
      • Private: Recommended for home or work networks.
      • Public: Use only for public networks (cafes, etc.) if necessary.
  7. Save the Changes.
    • Click OK to save your changes.

Power Cycle Your Router and PC

Sometimes, a simple power cycle can be the quickest and easiest fix when your internet or computer has any issues. It’s like rebooting your devices, but at a deeper level, clearing temporary memory and resetting internal processes. Now you have installed the latest Epic Online Services, here’s how to power cycle your router and PC to fix the Failed EOS Login Palworld error:

Power Cycling Your Router

  • Locate the Power Outlet
    • Find the power outlet where your router is plugged in. It’s usually near the wall, behind furniture, or in a corner.
  • Unplug the Router
    • Gently grab the power adapter and pull it out of the power outlet.
  • Wait for 30 Seconds
    • This gives the router’s capacitors time to drain any residual power.
  • Plug the Router Back In
    • Reconnect the power adapter to the outlet.
  • Wait for the Router to Boot Up
    • It may take a minute or two for the router’s lights to stabilize, indicating it’s fully operational.

Power Cycling Your PC

  • Shut down your PC.
  • Wait for the pc to turn off.
    • Make sure all fans and lights are off before proceeding.
  • Unplug the power cable.
    • While not necessary, unplugging the power cable for 30 seconds can offer a more thorough power cycle.
  • Plug the power cable back in and reconnect the power cable if you unplug it.
  • Turn on your PC.

Verify Your Game Files

Steam can sometimes have corrupted game files, leading to login problems. To verify your Palworld files, right-click on the game in your Steam library, select “Properties,” then click on the “Local Files” tab. Click “Verify integrity of game files,” and Steam will do the rest. If you have never done this before for any other games and need a step by guide, here’s how:

  1. Open the Steam client on your PC.
  2. Click on the “Library” tab at the top of the window. This will display your list of installed Steam games.
  3. Find Palworld and right-click on the name.
  4. From the context menu, choose “Properties” to open the game’s property window.
  5. In the Properties window, click on the “Local Files” tab.
  6. Click “Verify Integrity of Game Files“. This button is located near the bottom of the Local Files tab. Click it to initiate the verification process.
  7. Wait for the process to complete.
  8. Steam will compare your local files to the official ones and download any missing or corrupted files. This can take several minutes, depending on the size of the game and your internet speed.
  9. Once the process is finished, Steam will display a window outlining the results. If any files were replaced, you’ll see a message stating how many. If everything is in order, you’ll see a message confirming that “all files successfully validated.”
  10. Sometimes, restarting Steam and your game after verification can ensure everything is loaded properly. This is optional but can be helpful in some cases.

Run Palworld as Administrator

Right-click on the Palworld executable and select “Run as administrator.” This can sometimes grant the game the necessary permissions to bypass login issues to fix the Failed EOS Login Palworld error.

  • Knowledge of your firewall software (if our steps differ from your firewall, a quick YouTube video for your anti-virus will help).

  7. Create Outbound Rules (Optional):
    • Repeat steps 3-6, but in step 4, choose “Outbound Rules” in the left panel and use the same ports and settings.
  8. Verify Functionality:
    • Launch Palworld and Epic Games Launcher.
    • If you encounter any connectivity issues, double-check that you entered the ports correctly and created both inbound and outbound rules (if necessary).
