How to fix matchmaking issues in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre videogame

If you are unable to join a game and/or the other player couldn’t accept your party invite in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre game, then you can check out this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

1. If you want to play the asymmetrical survival horror multiplayer title with players from another platform, then you should make sure that you have cross-play set up properly.

If you are having troubles with cross-platform matchmaking, then you can take a look at this post.

2. If you are playing on consoles, then you should make sure that you forward the correct ports on your router in order to play The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with others online.

For the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles, you need to forward the following:

TCP:

  • 80
  • 443
  • 3478
  • 3479
  • 3480

UDP:

  • 3478
  • 3479

On the Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X, you need to forward the following ports:

TCP:

  • 53
  • 80
  • 3074

UDP:

  • 53
  • 88
  • 500
  • 3074
  • 3544
  • 4500

3. You can also try power cycling your router and modem.

To do so, turn off your PC, PlayStation or Xbox. Afterwards, turn off your router and modem. Wait a few minutes before turning on your router and modem again. Finally, power back on your PC, PlayStation or Xbox and then see if you can invite or join with others in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

4. There could also be an issue with the servers of the game. We suggest checking the official Twitter account for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

If the servers are down and/or in maintenance, then you need to wait until they return to normal again before testing to see if you are able to join or invite other players without any problems.
