What to check if Dead By Daylight is down

The first thing to do is check your own internet connection and console – do other applications work online? Are your other games or service working as normal? If not, make sure that you are connected to a stable and reliable internet connection. You can try resetting your router or modem to see if that resolves the issue.

• You may also need to check for updates, as outdated game files can sometimes cause connectivity issues and other problems.

• You could also try clearing your cache before finally contacting customer support. If nothings working and you have no idea why, you can reach out to the game’s support team through their official website or social media pages. Be sure to provide as much information as possible about the issue you are experiencing, including any error messages that you may have received.

Dead by Daylight may experience server issues or downtime for a variety of reasons. While some of these issues may be out of your control, it is always worth checking everything works on your end first.
