Summary
After a recent Epic update, this island became inaccessible due to a matchmaking error and the project crashed when attempting to open it. Epic provided a backup to recover access. After restoring the backup, the project opens correctly and works as expected in Playtests, but publishing is now blocked due to a persistent Verse “internal error”.
