Common Genshin Impact Issues During Outages

Login errors or connection timeouts

Players may see 'Failed to connect to server' or timeout errors during maintenance or outages.

High ping or lag during gameplay

Unexpected latency spikes can indicate regional server stress or degraded performance.

Co-op and matchmaking failures

Problems joining co-op, domain runs, or matchmaking often occur during partial server outages.

Gacha and shop unavailable

The wish/gacha system and shop may become inaccessible during server maintenance or payment system issues.

Troubleshooting Steps Before You Assume Genshin Is Down

  1. 1

    Check official announcements first

    Visit HoYoLAB or Genshin social media to confirm scheduled maintenance or reported issues.

  2. 2

    Restart your game and device

    Close Genshin completely, restart your console/PC/mobile device, and relaunch to resolve connection issues.

  3. 3

    Test your internet connection

    Run a speed test and check ping. If other games work fine, the issue is likely server-side.

  4. 4

    Switch servers if available

    If you play on multiple server regions (Asia, America, Europe), try switching to check if it's region-specific.

  5. 5

    Clear cache and verify files

    On PC: verify game files through the launcher. On mobile: clear app cache or reinstall if issues persist.
