Troubleshooting

How to fix Team Fortress 2 not working

Team Fortress 2 is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach teamfortress.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Verify Team Fortress 2 files in Steam

    On Windows, restart Steam, let Team Fortress 2 finish updating, then open Properties, Installed Files, and select Verify integrity of game files. If is Team Fortress 2 down right now points to a local fault, this can repair missing or damaged files.

  2. Check Steam account and server region

    Sign out of Steam, sign back in, and try another download region before launching the game again; a stuck login can make Team Fortress 2 not working today even while other Steam games open normally. Search Team Fortress 2 server status or Team Fortress 2 down detector to compare reports.

  3. Test your network and DNS

    Restart your router, pause downloads, and set DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 if matchmaking keeps failing. Team Fortress 2 network status shows operational, with 167 reports in the last 24 hours, 98.96% uptime, and the last outage 24 hours ago; check is Team Fortress 2 working, or search Team Fortress 2 outage today 2026, before changing more settings.

While Team Fortress 2 is down: what to use instead

  • Community servers When Casual matchmaking sits on the search screen or drops you back at the main menu, open the community server browser and join a server run by players, which works as long as Steam still signs you in.
  • Offline Practice Offline Practice puts you on a local map with bots, so you can warm up on a class while online servers refuse to connect.
  • Steam offline mode If Steam itself won't log in, its offline mode can still launch the game for bot matches, but only on a PC where you signed in before the outage.
  • Overwatch 2 Overwatch 2 is a free class-based shooter that runs on its own servers.

How we track Team Fortress 2

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Team Fortress 2, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Team Fortress 2, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Team Fortress 2 doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
