There is a dedicated website for NBA 2K25 players to check. It provides a full breakdown across all platforms, including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and the Nintendo Switch. It also breaks down whether the servers are up on specific networks and how they’re running.

The page also features a small section that shows when the website was updated. You can use this page to review any error codes you might see on your screen when attempting to connect to an NBA 2K25 match or play online.

If the NBA 2K25 website shows the servers are online and you can’t connect, you can always double-check the DownDetector website to cross-reference whether the problems are with the servers or if there’s an issue on your side of things.

If you double-check those two sources and you’re still encountering problems, it might be a good idea to reset things on your side and attempt to troubleshoot internet issues. You’ll want to turn off your console, reset your router, and wait for it to power cycle. When your router has completed its power cycle, reconnect it and power on your console to try connecting again. You may want to attempt to connect to another online source on your console to see if the network issue is with your console or at your home.

Should any problems continue to persist, it might be a good idea to reach out to the NBA 2K25 help desk to see if they can assist you with your online connection issues. You can do this on the 2K support website, where you can submit a request for help. Someone should receive your ticket, and they can assist you with your problems.
