However, when you are stuck on the “Looking for Players” screen, most of the time, the game is either facing Server overload or other similar issues.

The long queue times and matchmaking process issue generally arises from the server end. 

So, there is no 100% working fix for this. All you can do is check out the official Twitter handle of Fall Guys for news on Server Down or other issues.
