Is The First Descendant down? How to check server status

Sometimes, we just need a quick update.

Logging onto a game you’re excited to play only to experience bugs or connection issues is never fun. The First Descendant has also fallen victim to this, with various errors appearing as you log in or teleport to areas in the game. Fortunately, Nexon has actively worked on these issues, and there are ways to check its server status to see if the error you’re facing is client-side, server-side, or completely unrelated.

How to check The First Descendant server status

The First Descendant has numerous ways to check its server status, from its official X (Twitter) page to its Discord server. However, the most reliable way to stay up-to-date on current issues is The First Descendant’s news page, where Nexon actively reports on patch notices, urgent errors, and other important details. You can also view this page for information on upcoming events and features.

Currently, The First Descendant’s servers are online, with Nexon resolving several beta and launch issues shortly after its release. Over time, more patches will continue to be released in updates, which may cause some downtime if they’re major fixes or ones that require server reboots.

However, there may occasionally be times when it is not The First Descendant’s fault at all. For example, if you’re playing on consoles, you may experience Xbox server errors instead, which are completely unrelated to specific games. In such situations, you’ll have to wait for your PC or console’s services to return before logging into The First Descendant or other games you’re interested in playing.
