Learn how to check the Black Ops 6 server status and how to fix possible internet issues on your end.
Server problems happen very often with new games, and it's no different with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
We all have experienced it at least once. All you want at the end of the day is to play a game in your spare hours, but suddenly you're hit with server issues. While dealing with server problems is annoying, there are a couple of useful tips on how to deal with it.
Here's how to check if the Black Ops 6 servers are down and how to fix connection issues.
Are Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 servers down? How to check the server status
Sometimes, there is nothing you can do as the Black Ops 6 servers will simply be down because many people are trying to play the game, especially in the first weeks, or for maintenance purposes.
So, before you try to fix your internet connection, it's best to check if the servers are down. Your best bet is to follow X accounts such as Treyarch or CODUpdates as they usually inform players about ongoing server outages and when the servers will be back up.
On Oct. 25, for example, the developers choose to roll out a server maintenance update, which will cause players to disconnect automatically. We should expect at least a couple more server maintenance updates throughout this first weekend as the servers will be swarmed with players, and even some random error codes.
Alternatively, you can also check the Black Ops 6 server status by accessing Activision’s online services. Sometimes, however, the problem will be on the gaming platform and not the game itself, so check the Xbox server status, PlayStation server status, or Steam server status if you're running into any problems.

- Restart your console or PC
- Restart Call of Duty's app
