Helldivers 2 server status: How to check if servers are down
Up, down or taking scheduled maintenance, here's what's happening with Helldivers.
Helldivers 2 is a hit game in the truest sense. Players took to it quickly, the word of mouth scuttlebutt was great, and now it's being updated regularly with cool new content.
It's a fun time to be a Helldivers fan, with the increased level cap and the updated ranks giving players plenty to aim for (besides glory in the galactic war, that is).
The "login limit reached" error doesn't pop up as much as it used to, but no online only game is ever fully safe from server issues.
Let's check if the Helldivers 2 servers are currently down, and see how to check the server status whenever you're having trouble.
