Unable to Join Leaders session in FH5?
For some players, a frustrating error is coming up and that’s the “leader is matchmaking to a session” or something similar to this message. Despite both players being on the same platform for the game, they are not able to join the leader’s session in Forza Horizon 5. Some are getting disconnected during the process. If this is happening to you, try the following things:
- Make sure both players have the latest version of that game and have all the recent updates. A version mismatch could potentially cause this issue. Manually update the game if necessary,
- Check the Forza Horizon 5 server status. If there are connection problems related to the servers, they will contribute to the issues with joining a convoy and others’ sessions.
- Apparently, sometimes the issue could also come up if you end up creating a high number of new convoys back to back. So, take a break and try joining a friend’s session after a while.
- Close the game, relaunch it and try again.
- If none of these things work, you can contact Forza Support for assistance. It could be a bug with no workaround and only the developers can fix it. But, they are most likely aware of the problem and are already working on a patch to resolve it.
