Enable Crossplay on Warzone

One of the more common causes for the Warzone matchmaking error is having crossplay disabled. This is also the easiest solution so it should be tried first.

1. Open game options.
2. Go to the account options.
3. Enable crossplay if it isn’t already.

Scan and Repair Game Files

Another easy fix is to scan and repair game files. Sometimes game files may become corrupted or not work correctly. By running a scan and repair the game files will automatically be checked and fixed to prevent issues.

1. Open the Battle.net client.
2. Go to the Warzone page.
3. Click the gear icon next to the play button.
4. Click “Scan and Repair”.
5. Begin the scan.

Change Region

If you’re still having issues finding a match then you can try changing regions. While this solution rarely works, it is quick and easy.

1. Open the Battle.net client.
2. Click the region button on the Warzone page.
3. Select a different region.

Flush DNS & Winsock Reset

A DNS issue can also be preventing you from finding a game on Warzone. To fix any DNS issues you will need to flush your DNS. When using commands, leave time for the process to finish before entering the following command.

1. Open the start menu and search for “cmd”.
2. Right-click on the command prompt and open it as administrator.
3. Press “Yes”.
4. Type ipconfig /flushdns and press enter.
5. Type ipconfig /registerdns then press enter.
6. Type ipconfig /release and press enter.
7. Type ipconfig /renew then press enter.
8. Type netsh winsock reset then press enter.

Update Network Adapter Drivers

Sometimes you won’t be able to find a match on Warzone due to your network adapter not working correctly. If this is the case then updating the driver will fix the issue.

1. Open the Windows start menu.
2. Search for and open “Device manager”.
3. Expand the Network adapter options.
4. Right-click the network adapter you use and choose to update.
5. Search automatically for updates.

End Network Intensive Programs

Another option is to close any programs that are using the internet. This can be web browsers or apps you have running in the background. By closing these programs you are freeing up bandwidth to be used to find a match on Warzone. To see which applications are using your network press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the task manager.

Use Alternate DNS

Switching to an alternate DNS can solve matchmaking issues. Although you can use any DNS server typically the Google or Cloudflare DNS servers are used.

1. Open the Contol Panel.
2. Go to the Network and Internet settings.
3. Open the Network and Sharing Center.
4. Select your internet connection.
5. Open the properties.
6. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and open the properties.
7. Check the option to Use the following DNS server addresses.
8. Input your chosen DNS server addresses.
9. Click Ok.

Use Ethernet

Using a WiFi connection results in slower network speeds. Instead, try using an ethernet connection if possible. By using an ethernet connection you will be able to determine if the issue finding a match is because of your network speed or another issue.

Turn Off VPN

Disconnect from any VPN that is running. By running a VPN you are limiting your network speeds which can cause issues when finding a match on Warzone. Warzone may also be picking up the VPN connection and preventing you from finding a game.

Reboot Modem or Router

Depending on your internet setup you can also try restarting your modem or router. In most cases, you will want to switch off the modem for at least 30 seconds, before turning it back on. If the Warzone issue is because of your NAT type or a connection issue then this may be a simple solution. We recommend looking up how to restart your specific modem if you are unsure.

Conclusion

If you still can’t find a match on Warzone then it is possible that either there are no lobbies to join, or you have been shadow banned. However, both scenarios are unlikely. It is more likely that issues with your network connection are preventing you from finding a match.
