How we check Battlefield
No evidence of problems with Battlefield. Our last recorded check found it behaving normally. That does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.
Every check runs a four-tier cascade and stops at the first tier that gives a clear answer: Battlefield's official status feed, then a direct HTTP probe, then an ICMP network ping, and finally reports from visitors. The Verification tier box above tells you which one produced the verdict you are looking at. When enough separate people report a problem for it to be well outside what Battlefield normally sees, that counts as evidence too, which is how a partial fault can show here before an operator's own status page catches up.
Battlefield (battlefield.com) is re-checked continuously, and this page picks up any change on its own, with no refresh needed.
Common Battlefield problems users report
- Matchmaking queues that never find a server
- Disconnects mid-match with a server connection error
- EA account sign-in failing at game launch
- Progression and unlocks not saving after a match
What to do when Battlefield is not working
First check the banner above. If it shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Battlefield's side and waiting is usually the only option. If it shows nothing wrong, check your platform's own network first, since PlayStation Network or Xbox Network being down stops Battlefield connecting even when EA is healthy. Then restart the game rather than the console and check for a pending update, because a version mismatch blocks matchmaking.
About Battlefield
Battlefield is EA and DICE's large-scale multiplayer shooter, running on EA's online services for matchmaking, servers and progression. Because sign-in and matchmaking sit on shared EA infrastructure, an EA account outage takes the game down even when the game servers themselves are healthy, and launch weeks are when queues and rubber-banding usually appear.

Frequently asked questions
Is Battlefield down right now?
No. Our checks are finding no problems with Battlefield right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Battlefield continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.
What usually goes wrong with Battlefield?
The problems visitors report most often on this page are website / app down, can't log in, can't join a game, lag or disconnects, party / voice chat and app keeps crashing. Those are the options the report button offers for Battlefield, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.
Why is Battlefield not connecting for me when this page says it is fine?
Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Battlefield specifically, the EA account service, matchmaking and the game servers are separate, and servers are regional. Your platform and region can be broken while players elsewhere queue normally, and consoles can be affected while PC is fine. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.
How do I tell whether it is Battlefield or my own connection?
For Battlefield, check whether you reach the main menu and see your career stats. Menus loading while matchmaking fails is their servers; failing to sign in at all is the EA account service or your connection. Another online game connecting rules out your network. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.
What should I do while Battlefield is down?
If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Battlefield's side. Specifically: leave the queue rather than cancelling and re-queueing. Each re-queue puts you at the back and adds load to the matchmaking service you are waiting on. Campaign and offline modes normally keep working. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.
How does status.buzz check Battlefield?
Continuously, around the clock. Battlefield does not publish a machine-readable status feed, so we cannot read a verdict from them. We probe battlefield.com directly over HTTP, fall back to an ICMP ping if that is inconclusive, and weigh reports from visitors. That means we can tell you the service is unreachable, but not what Battlefield says about it. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.
Does Battlefield have an official status page?
Yes, at help.ea.com/en/status, and it is linked further up this page. That is Battlefield's own account of their service and it is the place to look for their estimate of a fix. We read it where we can, but we publish our own observations beside it rather than only repeating theirs, because an operator's status page can lag a problem their users are already hitting.
Is status.buzz affiliated with Battlefield?
No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Battlefield or battlefield.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Battlefield's own support, not us.
