Frequently asked
Is Minecraft down right now?+
Right now, Minecraft appears to be operational. We couldn't read Minecraft's official status page, but our independent checks can reach it, so it appears to be working.
How can I tell if it's Minecraft or my own connection?+
AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from Minecraft's official status page. If our check passes but you still can't connect, the problem is more likely local — try a different network, clear your cookies, disable VPN/extensions, or use a different browser. If our check is failing too, it's more likely Minecraft's side.
Why is Minecraft slow or not working?+
Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. Minecraft is currently operational. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem.
What can I use while Minecraft is down?+
Good alternatives include Roblox, Fortnite, Steam. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.
Where is Minecraft's official status page?+
Minecraft's official status page is at https://help.minecraft.net. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
