How to Fix No Rest for the Wicked Unable to Join Online Realms

Recently, some players have reported issues when playing No Rest for the Wicked in online mode, encountering connection failures with error codes that prevent multiplayer gameplay. This problem does not always occur but significantly impacts the gaming experience. If you've also faced this issue, don't worry—after our testing, we've found an effective solution. Please refer to this article.

What Is "Cannot Join Online Realms"?

Since No Rest for the Wicked allows switching between single-player and online modes, players have reported that when entering online mode, they experience prolonged loading, display "Attempting to reconnect...", and are then kicked back to the menu with the error message: Session handler error Error = ClientTimeout (6). Even clicking reconnect yields no change.

What Causes This?

From current observations, this does not appear to be a regional ban, as the issue occurs randomly and affects players across different regions. It seems more like a connection node anomaly causing data transmission failures, which disrupts the connection. The game's official team has not yet addressed this. Let's look at effective solutions.
