Many players are encountering a frustrating "Join Failed Because You Are on a Different Version" error in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, preventing them from joining friends' games. This error usually indicates an outdated game version. Let's explore solutions.
The most straightforward solution is to update the game. Return to the main menu and check for updates. However, some players report this doesn't always resolve the problem.

If the problem persists, a less conventional solution exists. Attempting to search for a match independently can sometimes allow your friend to join your party. This may require a few attempts, but it's a viable workaround.
