Is Star Trek Online down?

Check Star Trek Online server status right now. Cryptic's official launcher Up/Down state is the primary PC/Holodeck signal; independent service checks explain what is still reachable underneath it.

Live Status

The left result is Cryptic's official launcher Up/Down state. The five cards at right are independent supporting signals collected into the same five-minute public snapshot.

Status rule: only the official Cryptic launcher Up/Down field decides the main ONLINE/OFFLINE result. Maintenance text explains a Down state when available but never creates one. Supporting diagnostics cannot override the official signal. Scope: PC/Holodeck; PlayStation, Xbox, regional routing and individual map instances can still have separate problems.

How It Works

What does the Star Trek Online status checker test?

The first signal is Cryptic's launcher status itself. Four independent network checks and Steam activity are then collected as diagnostics; raw IP addresses are omitted because DNS routing can change.

Connection Problems

Why can't I connect to STO if this page says online?

A green result means Cryptic's launcher currently reports Holodeck Up. It cannot guarantee every player, route, platform or individual game map is healthy.

Other Checks

Where else can I check Star Trek Online outages?

These sources answer different questions, so they are kept separate rather than blended into one fake certainty score.

Independent · Endpoint monitor

STOStatus

An independent monitor that reports separate STO login, game, controller and account-service checks.

Status rule: Cryptic launcher Up = ONLINE; launcher Down = OFFLINE; an unreadable or unrecognised launcher state = STATUS UNKNOWN. Maintenance text is explanatory only. Patch, download, account/login, routing and Steam are supporting signals. A stale or failed -PTF- snapshot is shown as unknown, never as a false outage.
