Smite pits a huge roster of gods or mythical creatures from various mythology’s against each other. The huge roster of heroes and variety of weapons is what makes Smite one of the most popular MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games of all time. For the past few hours, many players are facing server issues and matchmaking issues and are unable to log in to smite cross play. Let’s see how to check Smite server status, maintenance period, and fix server issues.
Are Smite Servers Under Maintenance?
Hi Rez Studios, the developers of Smite didn’t announce any server maintenance or maintenance break on their Twitter handle. Clearly, Smite servers are not under maintenance, and the login issues players are facing are not because of a maintenance break.
How To Check Smite Server Status?
The best way to check Smite server status through Downdetector is to be one of the fastest and most accurate websites to check the server status. Players can also check Smite’s official Twitter and other social handles to see if players are tweeting to them about servers being down.

How To Fix Smite Server Issues?
- Before starting the game check out Hi Rez’s official Twitter and other social handles to see if players are posting about queue times. This will give you an idea specifically of which servers have high queue times and which ones you should avoid.
- Checking the social handles will also let you know if the issue is from the other end or some issue with your internet connection.
- Several websites claim to give server-wise data of the number of live players. While we aren’t sure about them, some players have claimed on Reddit and Twitter that these sites helped them avoid long queue times in Smite.
- One of the best fixes is using a VPN or trying a server of a lesser-known country. Popular servers have many players trying to get in, so changing to a less popular server can help you queue not moving errors or long queue time errors.
