A brand new error message started to mess up our Fall Guys experience recently. I’m talking about the “Different Content Version” error message in the game.
Although annoying, it can be easily fixed and I am here to share with you a complete set of steps to follow to fix it.
The error message “Different Content Version” appears in Fall Guys whenever you or a friend of yours tries to join or invite other players to a group. It appears on all platforms and it has nothing to do with cross-platform play or anything else.
How to fix Fall Guys Different Content Version error
Before getting in depth with step by step instructions, if you’re in a hurry, here are the things that you should try in order to fix the Fall Guys Different Version error:
- Make sure that your game is updated to the latest version (same for all your friends)
- Uninstall and reinstall the game
- Restart your console / computer
- Try the “save data” trick recommended below.
Now let’s get a bit more in depth with each recommended fix above!
The most likely reason why you are getting this error message is because you or the person that is getting this error message hasn’t installed the latest game update. So updating your Fall Guys game will most likely solve the problem.
However, this might also be caused by a corrupted file in your game’s install folder. In order to fix this error, all you have to do is to uninstall & reinstall the game or verify the integrity of the game files in the Epic Games Store.
When searching online to see if other people have the Different Content Version error and maybe manage to find another potential solution, I found an user on reddit recommending the following:
Go to Fall Guys – Manage game and add-ons – go to saved data, delete all and restarted the game.
This was recommended by a Reddit User here, but do try this only if the fixes mentioned above fail.
Finally, sometimes the easiest tricks can solve the most annoying problems. Try to simply restart your computer or console and try again. This works, surprisingly, more often than not.
Final Words
Most likely, this “Different Content Version” error in Fall Guys is caused by a missing update on your or your friends’ system, or a corrupted file that has to be reinstalled. It’s an easy fix no matter what and now you know what to do.
If you still have this problem even after trying the fixes above, do let me know and I’ll try to dig deeper and see if I come up with something else.
