Is Mortal Kombat 1 down? How to check server status

Mortal Kombat 1 was a huge release and reset to the MK franchise. But just as any game with online functionality, suffers from the same old server problems. Here is how to check whether Mortal Kombat 1 servers are down or not.

Mortal Kombat 1: How to check server status

In the case of Mortal Kombat 1, there isn’t a dedicated page that will provide any insights regarding server issues or overall status. Instead, you will have to rely heavily on the Mortal Kombat 1 social media platforms. Moreover, you can check whether other users are experiencing the same issues by visiting user report pages or blogs. Visit the pages below to check whether the Mortal Kombat 1 servers are currently down or not:

• Follow any updates at the Mortal Kombat X handle. If there are any server issues or maintenance previously scheduled, the developers will give you a heads-up, hopefully.

• Check out the Mortal Kombat DownDetector page. While this is not an official source of information, DownDetector will compile user reports regarding server issues and present them as a graph.
• Visit the Mortal Kombat subreddit or the dedicated Steam Discussion page. If by any chance a sudden server issue is happening, you can count on several – if not, a lot of – players commenting about it on both sites. It can get chaotic, but it will give you a better look at what could be happening on the developer’s side.

If by any chance you don’t find any server issues across the web, reset your PC and internet connection to solve any glitches and free up bandwidth. You can also improve things by using an Ethernet connection and disabling any active VPN, firewall, or antivirus. Hopefully, you will get to play with friends and “finish them” across the web.
