Note: Multiplayer modes in Splatoon 3 involve up to 8 players connecting simultaneously, so this error may not always occur because of something on your end of the connection.

Possible solutions

• Review our network status page to determine whether there may be server maintenance or an outage.
• Check the error history on your Nintendo Switch console. If any listed errors occurred in Splatoon 3, check for guidance on the specific error codes.
• If the error is occurring during online battles or job shifts, try our general match-making troubleshooting.
  • If the error is occurring when you attempt to order a specific piece of gear from another player, that piece of gear is likely not available to be ordered through Murch.
  • If the error is occurring in other situations, it may be a temporary issue with your connection to the server. Try the action that led to the error again later.
• Try connecting using a different wireless network or at a different location such as a friend's or family member's home. If the issue only occurs with your current network, this may indicate an issue with your router or ISP.
• If you are using a wireless connection, try setting up a wired connection.
