Are Borderlands servers down?

UPDATE: On Thursday, August 3rd, 2023, players are reporting issues with Borderlands servers. We will update the article once we have more information about the issues. There are no official announcement about any scheduled maintenance for today.

At the moment, Borderlands servers are experiencing issues. Players reported information about problems on May 20th, 2022. The source of the problem is unknown. If the servers are offline, this may be caused by several factors. The reason might be the fact that Borderlands 3 is free on the Epic Games Store. The game might have an update to be deployed, which may require a few hours of downtime. Developers are maybe performing scheduled maintenance, and that’s why Borderlands 2 and 3 are offline. Also, the cause might simply be within the servers themselves, and it needs to be fixed.
