PUBG 1.0 PC launch: servers are down in all regions [Update]

The 1.0 PC launch for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has not been the smoothest.

At the time of writing, servers for PUBG are down in all regions. This has been the case for about an hour how, and developer PUBG Corp confirmed that it’s aware of the problem and is investigating the cause.

This comes a couple of hours after a few other issues cropped up. Namely, EU servers being at capacity and preventing players from joining matches, as well as a leaderboard issue that prevents match data from being recorded.

Both of these are also on PUBG Corp’s radar, but because servers went down everywhere shortly after, the focus has shifted to first get things back up and running.

We are aware of a server capacity issue for EU region. EU players may have to wait longer to get into a match. Our engineers are working to fix this problem as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience.
