Further fixes have been implemented and VRChat services are slowly coming back online. It may take some time before you are able to connect, as we must slowly "open the gates".
We're continuing to monitor. Thank you for your patience!
Server issues have been resolved. Thanks for your patience!
We are investigating user reported and self-reported server instability and unresponsiveness.
Users may not be able to log in and in-application functions may fail.
All services have been re-enabled and the incident has been resolved.
Thanks for your patience!
We are investigating reports of issues with connectivity to VRChat services and login.

Hello all!
We are planning to do some very short maintenance. It should not cause an outage, but will cause your social lists to be out of date for five minutes at most.
There shouldn't be any further detrimental effects, but it is possible that other issues might occur.
This will occur at <t:1661457600:f>, which is <t:1661457600:R>.
The previously mentioned maintenance is complete!
We're investigating reports of issues with VRChat services.
A fix has been deployed and we're waiting for services to stabilize.
The aforementioned fix rolled out without issue, and services have stabilized.
VRChat services are experiencing issues preventing login and other API interactions. We are investigating.
Due to ongoing issues at an upstream provider, VRChat services remain degraded. We are working to improve VRChat stability despite these issues.
VRChat may be accessible at this time depending on your location, but service response time may be sluggish.
Our upstream provider has resolved their issues. Full VRChat service should be restored for all users.
We will work with this provider to ensure this issue does not occur again.
Thank you for your patience!

We will work with this provider to ensure this issue does not occur again.
Thank you for your patience!
VRChat services are experiencing issues preventing login and other API interactions. We are working to investigate and fix as soon as possible.
The issue has been identified as continued complications due to upstream provider issues from the previous incident.
To ensure service stability while a fix is being implemented, VRChat users may experience reduced functionality (ex: friend lists not updating). Login and realtime is OK.
We are continuing to mitigate issues and bring VRChat services online. Thank you for your patience, we will provide an update when possible.
At this time, logging into VRChat is not possible and related services (SDK, website) may also experience issues.
VRChat services are coming back online. Login should be possible, although some features like friend lists may be degraded.
Sidenote: If you are constantly reloading your home world after logging in, close VRChat and open it again. While VRChat is starting up, click "Cancel" on the login circle prompt before it disappears. Then, log back in.
This seems to occur for users that have Steam accounts linked to their VRChat account, and use Steam authentication to log in.
All issues have been resolved. If you still have problems, please follow these steps: While VRChat is starting up, click "Cancel" on the login circle prompt before it disappears then log in.
Thanks for your patience. We will work to prevent these types of issues in the future.
We are observing an increased number of failed logins and are investigating.
This incident was due to a service upgrade, and has now passed.
We are observing increased login and disconnection failures. Investigating.
Current investigation is pointing to issues at (a different) upstream provider.
The upstream provider appears to have recovered. We're keeping an eye on it.
We have confirmed that the issue was due to momentary upstream provider downtime. The issue has passed.
Some server maintenance will be happening <t:1664823600:R>! (<t:1664823600:f>) This maintenance will affect the VRChat API.
If things go well, you won't notice a thing!
If something goes wrong, however, it could result in degraded service. We'll keep an eye on things and let you know if we trip over the power cable.
VRChat will be undergoing maintenance on Tuesday, October 11th.
Start: <t:1665507600:F>

We don't expect any issues from this maintenance and it should pass without users noticing. If something does occur, we expect the downtime to last a few minutes.
We are observing increased login issues and unexpected disconnects. Investigating.
We've mitigated the issue and are seeing service recovery.
We are seeing reports of VRChat users not being able to see other users when joining instances. This issue only appears to affect users who have just experienced a daylight saving time adjustment.
We expect that this issue will resolve itself in five minutes, after which affected users should be able to rejoin their current instance to see people again.
Once again, we are seeing reports of VRChat users not being able to see other users when joining instances. This issue only appears to affect users who have just experienced a daylight saving time adjustment.
This issue will be resolved after all users affected have passed the Daylight Savings switch, after which affected users should be able to rejoin their current instance to see people again.
Apologies for the confusion!
We're seeing reports of disconnections and users not being able to connect to VRChat.
We are investigating.
Performance issues were identified.
To reduce load on the VRChat API, the API is no longer delivering Player Moderations or non-WS Friends lists to users.
We are investigating the root cause, and then will slowly re-enable these endpoints.
Player Moderations and Friend lists have been re-enabled.
We're observing service health to ensure stability.
It should be possible to reconnect to VRChat at this time.
The previously reported incident has been resolved, although we are still observing to ensure service health.
Thank you for your patience!

Thank you!
We're receiving reports of long connection times and inability to connect to VRChat services.
However, this is not a VRChat issue! All of our services are working fine, but we do see an unusual dip in player count.
Our best guess is that some routing infrastructure, likely located in the United States, has some issues. We also see major providers (ISPs, mostly) reporting issues.
If you're running into these issues, you can bypass the problem by joining or creating an instance hosted on VRChat's European or Japanese servers.
Update: This issue appears to have resolved itself as of <t:1670912400:R>.

This maintenance will not be noticed by most users. However, users that are in instances that have existed for a very long time (days) will be disconnected from that instance and then put into a new one. We expect this to impact about 1500 users at most.
Hello all!
We've just observed a spike of disconnections to our US West region. Approximately 10,000 users were affected. It seems affected users were able to log back in immediately.
There doesn't seem to be any further ongoing issues, but we'll keep an eye on things to ensure there's no further problems. Our best guess is that this was a momentary networking issue at the data center where those services are hosted.
Thank you!
Hello all!
We're seeing that the US West region appears to be having some issues. Other regions (EU, USE, JP) seem to be fine. Please swap to those regions.
We're working on this issue!
Hello all!
If you remain in the instance you're currently in, you should be fine.
We're continuing to investigate this issue. Thank you!
Hello all!
We have taken action to resolve the issues and you should be able to log into VRChat to USW regions.

Hello!
We're observing a large number of disconnects. We have already tracked down the cause and are deploying a fix currently.
Fix deployed. We are observing for further issues.
It should be possible to log back into VRChat at this time.
Recovery from downtime is slower than expected. We are investigating.
Recovery issues have been identified as issues with an upstream provider.
We have contacted the provider and are waiting on their fix.
Our upstream provider has responded and is working on the issue.
VRChat is currently inaccessible to many users. You may not be able to log in.
We appreciate your patience as we wait on a fix!
Our upstream provider has informed us that they have implemented a fix and expect a return to normal behavior over the next 15 minutes.
We are seeing successful logins once again, but are keeping an eye on recovery.

Users should be able to log into VRChat without issue.
Thank you for being so patient!
We are observing slightly higher levels of server timeouts and disconnections. We're investigating, but VRChat services are operating as normal. User count is recovering as I type this.
It is possible that this dip is due to Steam Tuesdays (steam does maintenance on Tuesdays and may time out people that authenticate using Steam) or potentially due to network infrastructure issues unrelated to VRChat infrastructure.
We'll provide further updates if the situation worsens, but it looks like we're probably fine!

We're investigating potential issues with an upstream provider which might be affecting logins on Quest devices everyone. At this time, it only appears to be affecting Quest devices specifically.
We'll update as things unfold. 
EDIT: Things seem to be returning steadily now. If you were unable to log in within the last 20 minutes, please try again now. If it still gets stuck or gives an error, wait about 2-3 minutes and try again. 
VRChat API services are currently experiencing issues. This will result in blank avatar lists, world lists, missing images, failures to log in, and failures to change worlds.
We are investigating.
The issue has been identified as a failure with an upstream provider. We are working with the provider to bring services back online.
A fix has been implemented, and services are coming back online.
Some services, such as friend lists, are still offline to ensure service stability and will come online when we are confident we are completely stable.
The previous incident has been resolved and friend lists are operational once more. Thanks for your patience!
We're aware of and are investigating degraded performance and instability of our API systems causing the VRChat client and website to stop functioning normally.
If you're experiencing issues with friends not appearing online, avatar switching issues, or other problems, that's probably why right now. We're investigating.
The incident appears to have been caused by an upstream provider and has been resolved at this time. We are continuing to monitor the situation!

VRChat services should be restored for most users. We're continuing to observe service state and will inform you if issues recur.
As always, thank you for your patience, and apologies for any interruptions!

We're about to do some server maintenance that should fix the occasional login issues that have been popping up. This should last for about an hour, starting at the time of this tweet. During the maintenance, you may experience more login prompts than usual.

VRChat is experiencing server issues and we are working to fix ASAP. We are preserving instances and ongoing sessions by temporarily reducing friends list functionality. We're aware of how much this impacts VRChat, and are working to return full functionality as soon as we can.

In the meantime, options like instance join links and Discord/Steam Rich Presence invites should still work properly for meeting up with friends. We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding and will update again when we have more info.

As of approximately 40 minutes ago, we removed the temporary reduction of friends list functionality. Players should be able to access these #VRChat features with no issue. Regardless, we're continuing to observe service state.
Thank you for your continued patience!

We realize these repeated disruptions are far from ideal. Once the immediate issues are solved, we will continue to investigate until we've solved the underlying causes.
As always, we appreciate your continued patience.

As of approximately 45 minutes ago, we enabled some of our server load mitigations.
In particular, the friends list will display information that may be out of date or incorrect. This is intentional. Rich Presence as well as invite links should still work fine.

As noted previously:
- You can monitor the current server status at https://t.co/mEyXoTCviL
- We are currently working towards implementing changes to prevent the need for these mitigations. We will keep you up to date!
We have deployed changes to our server infrastructure that should hopefully remove the need for further mitigations!
As such, we have removed all active load mitigations and are observing performance.
We're currently investigating reports of users having issues authenticating with VRChat services.
Stay up to date with our status page: https://status.vrchat.com/
We had a previous incident today that was resolved, but then ran into other issues that turned into server instability within the last 15 minutes. We just now deployed changes to fix the issue once again, and services should be stabilizing.
Apologies for the interruptions!
Those changes have finally rolled through, and our services have stabilized. You should be good to log in to VRChat once again. Apologies for the interruptions, and thank you for your continued patience!

We are investigating reports of failures to authenticate with VRChat services, as well as an outage of our social and friend list systems.
Stay up to date with our status page: https://status.vrchat.com/
The issues with VRChat authentication and social/friend list systems have been resolved.
The cause of the friend list issue was tracked down to a client bug. A workaround was implemented on the server side. A patch will be released later to fully resolve the client bug.
Hello all!
As noted on our status page: https://status.vrchat.com/
We're currently experiencing issues with our North America-based realtime-networking services. We are investigating!
Hi all!
As noted on our status page: https://status.vrchat.com/
We're currently experiencing some issues with our API. This may result in issues with logging in, changing instances, changing avatars, and social features.
We know the cause and are investigating solutions. Thanks!

Hey everyone!
Over the last hour or so, VRChat has been experiencing connection problems for the US-West region due to issues with an upstream provider. We've been working to get the problem resolved quickly and are seeing systems return to normal now. Thanks!
Hi everyone!
As you may (or may not) know, Facebook's servers are having issues. In particular, some changes they've made to their DNS have taken down the majority of their services. This may affect your ability to use your Oculus (including Quest) devices, let alone using them with VRChat! This doesn't seem to affect users using Oculus devices with Steam.
Unfortunately, there isn't anything we can do about this. Apologies! We'll keep an eye on their status for you.
Hi again!
As of 22:28 UTC, Facebook's network has reconnected to the global Internet and DNS is working again. It will take some time for caching to expire and for everything to reconnect.
In less technical terms, it appears Facebook has rolled out a fix but it will take some time for that fix to "take." Before that happens, you'll still experience issues connecting to VRChat using Oculus services! To reiterate, this is not a VRChat issue and we cannot assist you with these problems! Sorry!
If you're curious about what happened, Cloudflare has a pretty good article they're live-updating here: https://blog.cloudflare.com/october-2021-facebook-outage/
As noted: https://status.vrchat.com/
VRChat is currently experiencing some issues with our servers. This may result in difficulties logging in, accessing user/world/avatar data, uploading content, and many other features.
We're investigating!
The previously reported downtime has been resolved! Looks like we're all clear.
Thanks for your patience.
VRChat is again experiencing some issues with our servers. This may result in difficulties logging in, accessing user/world/avatar data, uploading content, and many other features.
While VRChat should be accessible again at this point, we are continuing investigation into the overall cause of these issues.
After extended monitoring, the previous issue appears to be resolved.
Thanks again for your patience!
Hi all! It seems Steam's having some trouble: https://steamstat.us
This will affect logging in with Steam and potentially with even launching VRChat via the Steam platform.
Unfortunately, there's not much we can do except wait! We'll keep you up to date.
Steam looks like it's recovered. https://steamstat.us/
Hey everyone! VRChat's European realtime servers are currently unavailable due to a datacenter-wide network outage.
Other regions are unaffected and can be used as an alternative for the time being, just select them when creating a new instance.
We'll update again when the issue appears to be resolved. Thanks!
Hello again!
At this point we've seen a full recovery of the European servers, and there shouldn't be any more connectivity issues. In the case of issues persisting, please restart VRChat to reauthenticate with realtime servers.
Hi hi!
We are aware of intermittent connectivity issues to our European realtime servers causing packet loss and timeouts for users in European VRChat instances.
Other regions remain available as fallback for affected users. Different regions can be selected during instance creation.
You can check the latest status, as always, at https://status.vrchat.com/
Regarding the previous issues with the EU region: We're still observing stability of affected servers but have seen full recovery so far. In case of issues still persisting, you may restart VRChat to reauthenticate with realtime servers.
There will be no further updates on this particular issue unless it worsens. Thank you!

Hello all!
This is a short announcement to let you know that in roughly ten minutes, the US East region will go into maintenance. We expect this to take 1-2 hours. Instances will still be able to be created, but may experience unusual behavior or disconnects. We'll post here again when maintenance is over.
Thanks!
The previously mentioned maintenance is complete!
There will be some further maintenance for other regions. We'll announce the time ranges for that work within the next few hours.
Hello all!
From <t:1638871200> to <t:1638885600> we will be performing work on VRChat servers, which may cause unusual behavior or disconnects to occur. You should still be able to create new instances during that time.
If this information changes, we will make additional posts. Thank you!
A correction was made. The previous time given was incorrect. Please check again!
This maintenance will occur at <t:1638871200>, which is <t:1638871200:R>.
The maintenance will end at <t:1638885600>, which is <t:1638885600:R>.
During this maintenance, all regions except for US East will be affected. Despite this, the effects of the maintenance should be minor, and at worst will amount to users being disconnected once or twice.
Thank you for your patience!
Hello all!
Due to ongoing issues with Amazon-related web services, VRChat may be experiencing ongoing server issues. These issues may manifest in a variety of ways, mostly related to your social list, world list, downloading avatars/worlds, and more.
Notably: This won't just affect us, it'll affect a significant proportion of online services overall.
We'll try to keep you up to date.
We're observing recovered services from our upstream provider, and issues (if any existed) should be resolved now. We're keeping an eye on things.
Thanks!
Stability of our search systems are being affected by problems at one of our upstream providers. This will impact systems such as world and user search, world rows, and social systems. We are investigating.
Our upstream provider recovered within a few minutes, as did our systems. This incident is now resolved.
We are investigating the cause of this issue to help mitigate further occurrences.
Hello all!
From <t:1641369600> to <t:1641391200> we will be performing work on VRChat servers. This work may cause unusual behavior or disconnects to occur. We expect users to experience one or two disconnects during this time if they are in an instance at the time of maintenance.
This will affect the USW, JP, and EU regions. You should still be able to create new instances during that time.
If this information changes, we'll let you know. Thank you!
An upstream provider is experiencing performance issues that may cause users on the west coast of the United States to experience connection issues and problems downloading VRChat content. We'll continue to monitor and update you as the situation changes.
The issue at the upstream provider appears to have resolved, and we're no longer observing resultant VRChat issues.

Hello everyone!
We are planning on performing some server maintenance between <t:1649926800:F> and <t:1649948400:F>.
Downtime or service degradation is not expected, although it is possible it may still occur.
Hello all,
Maintenance is taking a bit longer than anticipated. It will likely be another hour before the servers are stable. We'll keep you posted as the situation evolves.
Good news! Maintenance is finishing up, and things should now be returning to normal. It looks like an hour was a bit of an exaggeration!
As a note, your friends list might be inaccurate until you restart VRChat. Once you do so, though, you should be good to go. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Hi everyone!
We're about to deploy some remediation fixes for the outage on the 14th.
This should not cause downtime, since our upstream provider has addressed the issue that affected us last time. However, there will be a short blip of time (about a minute or two long) where your social lists will be blank or out of date. This will self-heal after that minute or two.
This deploy should occur at <t:1650402000>, which is <t:1650402000:R>.
Hi everyone!
Turns out that we're continuing to see the same issue from the upstream provider. We're reverting back to our previous state. Give us a few minutes.
Apologies for the downtime!
Another update. We've implemented our work-around and VRChat should be usable again. Sorry about that!
We're monitoring things to ensure that the fires are smothered, and are working with our upstream provider to investigate.
Hey all!
We will soon be making some server improvements that involve user sessions. In the case that issues arise from these changes, they will likely be visible in the form of users being logged out unintentionally. While we expect an entirely smooth rollout, there is more potential than usual for disruption so we wanted to post a notice ahead of time just in case.
We'll update again when the changes have been made. Thanks!
The previously mentioned changes have been deployed smoothly and everything is looking stable!
Hello everyone,

Hi everyone! One last post, hopefully.
Server issues appear to have cleared up. We're continuing to observe and are investigating what caused the downtime.
We apologize for the issues, and thank you for your patience!
Hey all,
The issues from earlier have been investigated and we'll be performing some server maintenance soon to address the cause. This maintenance could result in a temporary disruption, but we'll do what we can to keep things working smoothly. The maintenance will be starting around this time: <t:1652515200:f>
We'll post a short message when it begins, and another when it's complete. Thank you!
The maintenance mentioned before is starting now! We'll update one more time once it's complete.
Ok, hopefully the last post for real now. We've completed maintenance successfully and everything looks to be in order. Thanks again everyone!
Hi everyone!
We are observing a large drop in VRChat users online, however our internal services are operating as normal.
We're also observing other services experiencing issues, so our current assumption is that an upstream provider is having issues.
We will continue to monitor!
Hello again!
Cloudflare is reporting widespread issues with their services and/or network. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com
This directly affects many services that use Cloudflare-- like VRChat!
We'll continue to monitor and provide updates.
Welcome to Cloudflare's home for real-time and historical data on system performance.
One more time!
The upstream provider (Cloudflare, in this case) is reporting all-clear, and we are seeing behavior that reflects that.
