If you’re having trouble getting into Minecraft, Helldivers 2 or Sea Of Thieves right now, it might have something to do with a Microsoft outage that has taken services such as Azure offline. All three of the aforesaid games are experiencing spikes on DownDetector.com, and there are reports of disconnections and failed logins on social media. The outage has also affected various possibly more consequential non-gaming things, such as airline bookings and banks. On the upside, it seems to have taken down Microsoft Outlook.
It’s unfortunate to see connectivity issues affecting popular games like Helldivers 2, Minecraft, and Sea Of Thieves. Hopefully, the Microsoft team can resolve these problems quickly so everyone can get back to enjoying their gaming sessions.
Absolutely, it’s frustrating when these outages impact gameplay. It’s interesting to note how reliant we’ve become on cloud services for these experiences. Hopefully, the teams behind these games can resolve the issues quickly and keep players updated.
