Arena Breakout Infinite: Different Servers Error Explained

Your squad cannot link up, and the game tells you that you and the captain are on different servers. That message blocks the raid before it starts, which is annoying when everyone is online and ready. The cause is almost always a region or server mismatch between players.

Why the region dropdown is the real cause

Arena Breakout: Infinite sorts players by region, and squads must share the same one. If the captain queues in one region while you sit in another, the game refuses to merge the party. Pick the same region in your settings before inviting, and confirm every member sees the identical server label on their own screen.

Relaunching the client after a region change

Restart the client after changing regions. The selection does not always apply to an already-open session, so a clean relaunch forces the new setting to take hold. Once everyone relaunches on the matching region, the squad invite should go through without the error.

Squads split across two countries

Cross-region play is limited by design. If a friend is physically in another country, you may need an agreed region that both can reach, or accept that squad play is restricted. This is not a bug to report so much as a boundary the matchmaking enforces, and it protects fair, low-latency fights.

A related mix-up appears when one player is on Steam and another on the official launcher, but that pairing usually works because PC clients share servers. The block triggers on region, not on client, so do not blame the launcher when the real fix is the region dropdown in settings.

When the error returns after a relaunch, widen the check. The change server guide walks through region selection, and the error codes fix guide covers related login conflicts that can mimic the same block.

Set one region for the whole squad and restart the client, because that single alignment clears the “different servers” wall in almost every case.
