Since its launch Modern Warfare 3 servers have remained more or less stable across PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox, and PC. As with any major launch, initial server difficulties such as lag, rubber banding, and other issues may affect gameplay. To counteract this, the developer executes server maintenance, during which gamers cannot access the game.

Multiplayer players suffer the most from MW3 server issues, which can impact gameplay and overall experience. This article provides an in-depth guide on checking the server status, allowing gamers to remain up to date on online/offline situations.

According to multiple reports, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been facing major server issues today. Players are facing problems while connecting to the game, and some players' ranks are being reset as well. Activision has already acknowledged the issue, and the developers are working to fix the server.

You can expect the MW3 server to get stable as soon as possible. It is recommended that players refrain from trying to play a ranked match while the server is down.


How to check the COD MW3 server status

Stay updated about the status of MW3 servers via official means. Follow Call of Duty and Sledgehammer Games on X (formerly Twitter) for real-time information on maintenance.

Additionally, you can visit Activision's official server website. Once you visit the site, select Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and it will reveal the server status, whether online or offline. Select your desired platform for platform-specific updates, and it will be redirected to the platform's specific server status site.

Alternatively, you can visit the website Downdetector, a widely trusted platform that provides up-to-date information in various sectors, including gaming, online banking, and others.

Checking the MW3 server status is a good idea if you're having trouble accessing the game or experiencing sudden, unexpected in-game issues. If servers are down, be patient and wait for them to be restored before trying to play again.


MW3 multiplayer offers an enhanced gameplay experience by reintroducing beloved movement mechanics like slide cancel and reload cancel. Nostalgic maps from Modern Warfare 2 (2009) enhance the gameplay even more.

The game embraces innovation by introducing new modes, an expanded armory, and a redesigned perk system. Players can expect a dynamic and challenging gameplay experience that combines familiar concepts with intriguing aspects for an immersive multiplayer engagement.
