Are Black Ops 6 servers down? How to check CoD server status

Server issues, go away, I want to play CoD today.

Uh oh. It’s time for the squad to get online for some Black Ops 6, but the Call of Duty servers are giving you problems.

There’s nothing more annoying than being hampered by server problems or internet issues when you’re trying to kick back for some CoD action with the pals. But when this happens, there are a few things you can do to see if the issue is widespread or if you need to do something on your end to fix it.

Here’s how to check on the server status of CoD: Black Ops 6.

Black Ops 6’s servers may be down or experiencing issues if you’re having trouble connecting to games, staying in games, or even connecting to the online servers whatsoever.

Stay tuned to Twitter/X accounts like @Treyarch and @CODUpdates to always be in the know when there are problems happening with BO6, but there are also some other things to do to check on the servers.

For example, on the launch day of the BO6 beta, Treyarch posted that it was working on getting more servers online so that everyone could get into the game “as soon as possible.” This line of communication is expected to continue throughout the game’s year.

The main place to check the status of all CoD servers is on Activision’s Online Services page. This page will show up-to-the-minute information on which games are experiencing issues, or if there are widespread outages.

You may also need to check the server status pages of whatever platform you play on. This includes Xbox, PlayStation, Steam, or Battle.net as these services having issues could also create problems for CoD.

Websites like DownDetector are also great to tell when there are outages for any game or service. Check out the CoD page for DownDetector to see when there are reported issues.

If there doesn’t seem to be any widespread server problems, then you might be having internet issues yourself. Here are a few things you can do to try and fix the problem on your end:

  • Reset your internet connection.
  • Restart your Call of Duty app.
  • Restart your console or PC.
  • Contact your ISP to see if you have an outage in your area.
