Steam: Server status for the release of Sons of the Forest – This is the current status

With the release of Sons of the Forest on February 23, many fans are concerned about whether the Steam servers can withstand the onslaught. MeinMMO provides you with the current status.

Are the Steam servers down? The Steam servers are currently unstable. During our tests, an error occurred exactly when Sons of the Forest was released at 7:00 p.m. German time, which means that neither the Steam shop nor the Sons of the Forest Steam page can be accessed.

This applies to both the Steam app and the website version of Steam. At times it works to surf the pages, but the connection is currently unstable. However, according to steamstat.us, all EU servers should be online.

Some users manage to buy Sons of the Forest currently and even give it to others as a gift. Twitch streamers CohhCarnage and Trymacs can already play. Sons of the Forest costs 28.99 euros.

How does the server down happen? Sons of the Forest is the most anticipated game on Steam. However, we cannot say how many fans are actually waiting for the game. It’s rare for a release to bring the Steam server itself to its knees.

During the release of Hogwarts Legacy, there were hardly any problems, there the game itself was rather plagued by performance problems.
