Frequently asked questions about Rockstar Games
Can I play offline while Rockstar Games is down?
Single-player games often work in offline mode. Anything that checks a licence or a friends list on launch will not.
My library looks empty.
An empty library during an outage is almost always a failed sign-in rather than lost games. Do not repurchase anything.
How do I know if Rockstar Games is down for everyone?
Look at the outage graph above. A sudden spike in reports means the problem is on the Rockstar Games side and there is nothing to fix at your end. A flat graph points at something local - your connection, your device, or your account.
Rockstar Games is down. What can I actually do?
When the reports are widespread, waiting is the honest answer - the service is being restored by people who already know about it. Before you settle in, it is worth checking your internet connection and reloading Rockstar Games once, because that rules out the handful of causes that look identical from your side.
Why is Rockstar Games working for other people but not for me?
Outages are often partial. They can hit one region, one platform, or one group of accounts while everything else carries on. Your own connection, an old app version or a cached login can also produce a problem only you can see.
