How do you fix the Version Mismatch message in Rocket League? Rocket League is going strong still - and there’s no reason for this not to be the case for the foreseeable future - but issues do pop in from time to time. Both in places where you’d expect to see them, and where you wouldn’t!
Rocket League Version Mismatch is one such issue that keeps getting in the way of playing it online. Chances are that, if it happened to you, the version mismatch error got fixed on its own given time, but if you’d like to know exactly how to alleviate the problem, read on.
Rocket League Version Mismatch
Rocket League Version Mismatch Fix requires very little technical knowledge and requires little more than a few additional minutes of your time. What ‘version mismatch’ means is that your version of Rocket League is outdated and that it requires a client-side update before you can continue to play.
In theory, this should mean that Rocket League auto-updates as soon as you close the game and go back to Steam, but sometimes it doesn’t quite work that way. To fix the problem, however, all you need to do is shut down Steam completely and re-launch it from your desktop.
If this doesn’t work you can also try to verify the integrity of game files in Steam by following these steps:
- Right click the game in your Library, or click the gear icon from the game’s Library page on the far right
- From the drop down menu, select Properties…
- Select the Installed Files tab and click the Verify integrity of game files button
Most time the error pops up because of a patch or update, so check the official news feeds to see if any updates have been released, just so you know for sure.
The good old ‘turn it off and on again’ seems to truly be a tried-and-true troubleshooting tactic, and is a good thing to keep in mind if you often dabble in software, to be sure. We hope this helps!
