NEW 2023 - Dissidia 012 Duodecim Multiplayer - White Screen

[AWEsomeJorge]

** New as of 2023 - Multiplayer not working **

I have been trying to play multiplayer on Dissidia 012 Duodecim with some friends and we cannot connect to each other. All application networking settings and router settings have been confirmed correct dozens of times. This has been tested on multiple different computers with both existing and brand new save files. Application has been cleared/deleted/reinstalled multiple times. We are doing the exact same thing we have done in the past which has worked hundreds of times.

What is happening is we will both connect to an online lobby and successfully challenge each other to a battle and then the game will just sit at a blank white screen instead of loading the character selection screen.

Is anyone else having this issue? Has anyone been able to successfully play this game multiplayer across the Internet in 2023? As stated above, we have done this hundreds of times over the last few years.

Any feedback is appreciated!
