Is Project Zomboid Down?

We cannot tell whether Project Zomboid is down right now

Our most recent successful reading is too old to judge anything from — this usually means our collector, not the game, is having a problem.

Last checked — that is older than we are comfortable judging from.

Frequently asked questions

Is Project Zomboid down right now?
We cannot say yet. Our most recent successful reading is too old to judge anything from — this usually means our collector, not the game, is having a problem. Our most recent reading was taken 14 hours ago.
How do you detect outages?
We do not have access to any official status feed. We poll the platform every 5 minutes, store every reading, and compare the current count against the median for that same hour of the same weekday over the previous weeks. A count below 35% of normal for two consecutive readings is reported as an outage; below 60% for three consecutive readings is reported as degraded. This is statistical inference, not an official status page, and it can be wrong — a scheduled maintenance window and a real outage look identical from the outside.
Where can I check the official Project Zomboid server status?
Valve does not publish an official per-game status page. The closest official sources are the game's own announcements on its Steam store page and the developer's support or social accounts. For Steam-wide problems, steamstat.us is a widely used community tracker.
