Deadlock server status

There is no official uptime board to embed. This page will not invent a green or red dot. It tells you how players tell a local fault from a wider outage, and how the region command is documented.

I looked for a Valve status endpoint while reading the research notes and did not find one. I also will not republish 2024 region-curfew tables as if they were still policy.

You, or the service

Start with the client: can you open the Hideout, and can other people in your match queue? The official forum has threads such as “Unable to talk to the Network” when the failure is widespread. Steam’s own discussions are the other place outages get reported.

The region command is a console variable, not a settings slider we can screenshot from a public page. Historical values documented on the wiki are -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, but the command is currently marked non-working. Do not assume those numbers map to city names unless you have checked the current client.

Questions

Is Deadlock down right now?

This site does not poll Valve. Check the official forum and whether friends can queue. A single failed login is not an outage.

How do I change region?

The wiki documents citadel_region_override with values -1 and 0 through 5. The wiki currently marks it as non-working, so do not rely on it for matchmaking.

Are the old curfew hours still true?

Tables from the 2024 alpha may be stale. Treat them as an estimate, not a schedule.
