Checking if Escape from Tarkov is Down

Thankfully, with this game, you won’t have to be running about random ‘Down Detector’ sites to find out accurate information if servers are actually down or not. Escape from Tarkov has its very own dedicated official server status webpage that you can visit through this link and it will inform you of everything you need to know about the current server statuses for the game. From ‘Matchmaking’ to even ‘Trading’, everything is covered here for checking if the game is down or not.

When using the page, you can tell if a server/service is down if the green dots change to another color. It should be noted that a blue color indicates that the game is ‘updating’ and that is why servers likely wouldn’t be working at that point. Another aspect to note is that on the page you can view current messages about the status of the game on the right-hand side and down on the bottom you can view any current issues with the server. This should be clear if there are no issues with the game.
