What to do if World of Warcraft is not working
- Check whether World of Warcraft is in scheduled maintenance. Many games take servers down for updates, often on weekday mornings.
- Fully restart the game and the launcher or console, not just the match.
- Use a wired Ethernet connection if you can. Wi-Fi often causes lag and disconnects that look like server problems.
- Install any pending game or system updates. World of Warcraft often blocks older versions from connecting.
- Verify or repair the game files in your launcher if the game crashes on start.
- If you're stuck in a login queue, leave it running. Re-joining usually sends you to the back of the queue.
World of Warcraft outage FAQ
Is World of Warcraft down for everyone, or just me?
Look at the status at the top of this page. We connect to worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com directly from our servers, so if our check works but World of Warcraft doesn't work for you, the problem is more likely your device, network or account. If our check fails, or reports have jumped in the last hour, World of Warcraft is probably having a wider outage.
Why does this page say World of Warcraft is up when it isn't working for me?
Our check confirms that worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com is reachable and responding. An outage can still affect only part of World of Warcraft, such as logging in, the mobile app or a single feature, or only some regions. That's why visitor reports matter: when many people report problems at once, we flag World of Warcraft as having problems even if the website loads.
How often do you check World of Warcraft?
We check World of Warcraft automatically several times a day, and again whenever someone opens this page and our last check is more than a few minutes old.
How do I report a World of Warcraft outage?
Use "Report a problem" on this page to tell us what isn't working. Reports are anonymous: we don't store your IP address, only a one-way code that stops the same person reporting many times, plus your country.
