I am unable to download a game or patch. What can I do?

  1. Click [Retry].
  2. Check your Internet connection and restart your router/modem.
  3. Close the Game Center and delete the [Updates] folder inside the game directory. Launch Game Center and try again.
  4. Add the game you have issues with to your firewall and antivirus exception list.
    • Temporarily disable your antivirus and firewall and try again.
    • Check your router firewall.
  5. Cancel the installation or update. Delete the game you have issues with, both in Game Center and manually from the local disk and reinstall it.
