You’ve just got in from work or school and you’re so ready to unwind with some World of Warcraft, but the game won’t let you in. What’s gone wrong? Is WoW down?
Online games often suffer periods of planned server maintenance and downtime, meaning you can’t log in to the game when maintenance is ongoing. Typically, planned downtime lasts no longer than a couple of hours, but at least the development team lets you know when it’s happening and how long it should last.
More annoying are the times where there is no planned server maintenance and the game is down for no apparent reason. Whatever is happening, though, there are ways to find out what’s going on.
Read on to find out if WoW is down or not and to see when the next lot of scheduled downtime is set to take place. You’ll also find details of how to check the MMORPG’s server status down below.
If you can’t log in to World of Warcraft it’s because there is currently a spate of ongoing scheduled server downtime for maintenance. The current scheduled server downtime in WoW is Wednesday 5th July from 3am-4am.
During this period of server maintenance, you won’t be able to log in to the MMO or play it at all considering its always-online status.
The maintenance downtime was confirmed on the official Blizzard website, on which the development team lets us know of any incoming planned server outages. Fingers crossed the downtime lasts no longer than an hour and you can get back into the game as soon as it hits 4:01am.
