Helldivers 2: How to Fix Connectivity Issues
If Helldivers 2 is inaccessible for you while servers are actually functional, the problem likely lies on your end. Here are some things to try:
- Ensure PlayStation Network/Steam is not undergoing maintenance.
- Check your internet connection stability.
- Disable any active VPNs.
- Reset the router if network issues persist.
- Verify firewall/antivirus not blocking the game.
- Re-install as a last resort if the above fails.
If you still can't get Helldivers 2 functioning after troubleshooting your setup, submit a support ticket to Arrowhead Studios detailing the problem. Include screenshots and error codes if applicable.
Developers usually respond with fixes or workarounds within 24 hours. Custom support inquiries also help them identify and squash wider technical problems.

While Helldivers 2 seems in a good state now server-wise, launch weekend saw some downtime. If servers go offline again, wait for developers to get things back up. Check their social channels for updates on any maintenance work.
The only option is to wait outages out - don't bother reinstalling or factory resetting your system as that won't resolve server-side problems. Just hang tight for the development team to get connectivity restored.
