Valorant players face server outages in the UK as Riot Games works on addressing connectivity issues in the region. Earlier today, a number of players from the UK took to Reddit, Twitter, and other online platforms to talk about frequent disconnection issues in the UK servers. If you too are facing issues, there are various ways to check if Valorant servers in your region are down. If the servers are indeed down, notifying Riot Games’ support channels on social media platforms is recommended as it will help resolve the issue faster.

How to check if Valorant’s servers are down

Riot Games typically shows Valorant error code 84 when the game servers are down. If you are unable to connect to the server, it is recommended to check the following websites.

Valorant Down Detector

The Riot Support Twitter account is a great place to find out if the game’s servers are live or not. If there are any issues, you can also tweet them to confirm server outages. But social media accounts do not always have live updates and using a website like Down Detector will let you track user complaints about outages at any time.
