Just this morning earlier, it seems that there are multiple games are facing issues preventing players from logging to play. Looking at @downdetector, the problem first started on 29 February on Origin and it has become a problem on other platforms. This includes Star Wars Battlefront, Battlefield, World of Warcraft and many more.

Apart from Origin, the network issue found itself to Blizzard as well. Even the PlayStation Network encountered a problem, same goes to Dota 2 this morning. It's not just the games, but other entertainment apps like Spotify got the issue 8 hours ago (at the time of writing this news). Online streaming websites like Funimation and Crunchyroll are currently fine now as they had the same issue yesterday.

To check if your game is down, we got the list below. Do note that some of the games below may have recovered so do check local listings.

  • Escape From Tarkov
  • Star Wars Battlefront
  • Battlefield
  • World of Warcraft
  • Call of Duty

Currently, Origin has reported on their Twitter account that their servers have made some recovery but some of the games and regions are still affected. Their team are still working it out and hope to get things back on track for their fans. Restarting the Origin client may also help.
