If you can't connect to Diablo 4, the servers might be down or at least affected by another technical problem. Here's how to check the server status and what you can try out if you can't log in to Blizzard's popular ARPG.

If there is one complaint that many fans have regarding Diablo 4, it would likely be regarding the game's servers. Launch hasn't been the worst in Blizzard's history, but numerous issues plague players almost every day.
While we would all like to believe that these server problems will stop eventually, that seems unrealistic – especially with the ongoing release of new content. Given that Diablo 4 requires players to be online at all times, server problems will presumably be an issue with Diablo 4. If you are ever curious if the Diablo 4 servers are down, then you will need to know how to check the status of the servers.
Diablo 4 Servers Down: How To Check Server Status
First and foremost, players who want to quickly and easily check a possible server outage for Diablo 4 should head to the official Diablo Twitter account. While this account is more for promotion and providing updates on the game itself, it will also sometimes tweet out when there are server problems or upcoming maintenance.
If you want a more reliable source for Diablo 4 server reports, then you want to head to DownDetector. This website has sections dedicated to different games, where it will collect user reports regarding the servers for a specific game. If you see user reports spiking for Diablo 4 on DownDetector, then it's likely that the servers are down for most players, and not just you.
Sometimes the connection issues already start on Battle.net – so it might be worth checking if the Battle.net servers are down or overloaded. If that's the case, here's a list of things you can try out to solve connection issues on Battle.net.
Aside from those avenues, there isn't much else you can use to check the server status for Diablo 4. Hopefully, the beta was a learning experience for the developers and the full game will experience far less server issues.
Scheduled Diablo 4 Server Maintenance Downtime
Blizzard will take down the Diablo 4 servers for bigger updates to the game and general maintenance. That means that during these times, you either won't be able to play the game at all or will at least experience connection issues.
This type of maintenance doesn't happen regularly, but rather in specific times, which Blizzard have listed in a dedicated support page.

If you're having trouble connecting to the servers, although they seem to be online, there could be a problem with your internet connection or with your device settings. Here are a few things to check if you're having trouble connecting to the Diablo 4 servers:
- If you're in touch with friends that also play Diablo 4, ask them whether they have the same problem. If they don't, you can be pretty sure that it's a local problem and not a server-based one
- Something that helped us more than once is changing the Battle.net server region – this can particularly help when the connection problems already start on the Battle.net app.
- Restart your router
- Restart your Xbox, PlayStation or PC
- If you have another PC with Diablo 4 on it next to you, try to log in from that device – if that works, a certain configuration on your main PC might have to be adjusted.
- Check the connection settings of your PC or console to find out whether it's connecting properly to your Wi-Fi.
And that's it. Just be aware that there will always be server issues from time to time and especially when a bigger update is getting released. Millions of players trying to connect to the game at the same time can often result on long server queues, however this problem should resolve itself after a couple of days.
