With any big game that requires players to be fully connected online, like Fortnite, there can be a lot going wrong. Several error codes may appear, and each means something different. We will see what each code means and how to fix the problem without contacting a support service.
Fortnite Connectivity Error Codes
errors.com.epicgames.common.server_error
This is a general connection issue that may be related to the player's internet connection or a server issue.
Error 91
This error comes from disconnecting or not being able to join a group. If it is a disconnection issue, players will need to verify the game files in the launcher settings. Alternatively, players can change their party status to private to join a party.
AS-3
No connection at all. Treat this exactly the same as the first error.
IS-0005
This error is caused by the inability to connect to the Epic Games launcher. In this situation, players should check the Epic Games server status. Alternatively, it could be a problem with a VPN, proxy servers or firewalls. Make sure all of these are disabled when playing.
LS-0005
This error is caused by a problem with the server and a fix. More than likely, this means the Epic Games server is down or the player's internet is too slow or disconnected.
LS-0015
This error is usually caused by a problem with the player's internet. The player must first check if the console or PC is connected to the Internet. Then check the internet service status to make sure the service is not down. Finally, test the internet speed. If the speed is slow or interrupted, try using a wired connection to the console or PC.
