Battle.net Servers Down? Here’s How to Check

Battle.net sometimes experiences higher than normal traffic, especially around new game launches such as Modern Warfare 2. This may result in a queue. Are you experiencing issues? Well, here’s how you can check if Battle.net is down and what you should do if it is.

Battle.net Servers Down? Here’s How to Check

You can always resort to Down Detector to tell if Battle.net is experiencing issues. The service tracks issues related to multiple software and services. Blizzard also offers regular updates on whether its services are encountering issues such as digital download issues or trouble logging in.

Unfortunately, if you are experiencing connection issues and digital download issues, there isn’t much you can do except wait and hope for the best. Fortunately, Blizzard is usually quick at investigating and resolving these issues. If you’re experiencing download issues, check back regularly for an update. Meanwhile, if you find yourself in a queue, here’s what you can do.

What to Do If You’re in a Queue

The queue is caused by high login traffic and is designed to help process login attempts. It will reset you in the queue if you attempt to leave or restart the client. Follow these steps to ensure your Battle.net logs you in as soon as possible:

• Stay in the queue until it finishes. Do not leave or restart the client.
• Enter your Blizzard account name and password correctly.
• Enter your authenticator code promptly and correctly.
• Accept any Terms of Use or License agreements promptly.
