Is Steam down right now?

Steam is working

This reflects our latest automated server check together with what users have reported recently — it is a community signal, not an official company announcement.

Our automated checks run from our own monitoring server and test the public website — they can miss problems that only appear inside the mobile app or after you sign in. The status on this page also reflects recent user reports, so read it as a community signal rather than an official announcement from the company.

About Steam

Steam is a gaming service listed in our directory (store.steampowered.com). Server maintenance and update rollouts are the usual cause of login failures and disconnections.

Fix it yourself

Five quick things to try before concluding Steam is down.

  1. Hard-refresh the page — press Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) so Steam loads a fresh copy instead of a stale cached one.
  2. Switch your connection — move between Wi-Fi and mobile data to rule out a local network problem.
  3. Try incognito mode — a broken browser extension or corrupted cookies can stop Steam from loading while it works fine for everyone else.
  4. Swap the app and the website — if the app fails, try the website (or the other way round) to see whether the problem is limited to one platform.
  5. Wait it out — if our live check also fails, the fault sits on Steam’s servers and usually resolves on its own; check back in 15–30 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

Is Steam down right now?
Run the live check above and look at the report graph — gaming outages spike fast because players all notice at once. Also check the game's official social accounts, since scheduled maintenance is usually announced there first.
Why can't I log in to Steam?
Scheduled maintenance is the most common reason and often happens in early-morning hours. If there is no maintenance announced, check your credentials, try a different network, and make sure the game client is fully updated.
High ping and lag on Steam — is the server down?
Not necessarily. Lag is more often your own connection — close background downloads and streaming, switch to a nearer server region if the game allows it, and prefer a wired connection over WiFi for competitive play.
Why was I disconnected from Steam mid-game?
A brief server hiccup or a momentary drop in your own connection can both kick you out. If the report graph shows a spike at that exact time, it was their side; otherwise, look at your router and ISP stability.
Do Steam outages affect all players or just my region?
Often just one region, since games run on regional server clusters. The city breakdown in the reports above is the quickest way to see whether players near you are affected too.
