Dota 2 is a competitive game that gets my adrenaline going, especially during a long and intense match. The game requires an online connection and relies on the servers to keep things running smoothly, which can lead to errors. Nothing makes me more upset than dropping a game due to server issues, so I like to check the Dota 2 server status before launching the game.

How to check Dota 2 Server Status

While there are many ways to check if the Dota 2 servers are down and the general server status, the one I find most reliable issteamstat.us. Here, you can check the status of both Steam and Dota 2. You can also select theDota 2 Game Coordinatorto get more in-depth information on the title. On the right are also region and city-specific servers, making this page one of the best ways to check the server status for Dota 2. Other ways to check the Dota 2 server status can be found below.
