On 18th October, CSGO players across the Globe reported outages of the game servers.
The first and most common cause of server outages is a new update. When a new update is shipped to the game, the servers can go down for a short while. However, in case of an update, the servers can be up quite quickly.
Another reason behind server outages may be a technical fault in Valve’s servers. This is very unlikely to happen but has happened on more than one occasion in the past.
In case you’re finding yourself unable to launch CSGO or join a game, you can check for yourself if CSGO servers are down.
