Is it down, or is it just me?
kid.gg answers that question instantly. Real-time status monitoring for 40+ gaming platforms so you never have to wonder again.
What is kid.gg?
kid.gg (Know It's Down) is a status monitoring service built by gamers, for gamers. We track the health of Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Discord, Epic Games, Fortnite, Minecraft, and dozens of other platforms you rely on every day.
When servers go down, matchmaking breaks, or login issues spread, you will know about it here first - often before the official status pages even update. No more refreshing Twitter or Reddit wondering if the problem is on your end.
How It Works

We aggregate data from official status pages and APIs published by game developers and platform operators.
Synthetic Health Checks
Our probes run continuous health checks from multiple global regions, detecting issues even when official status pages lag behind.

Our Mission
kid.gg started as a side project born from frustration. We were tired of frantically searching "is Steam down" only to find outdated information or clickbait articles.
We built the tool we wished existed: fast, accurate, and community-driven. No ads disguised as content. No SEO spam. Just the status information you need, when you need it.
This is an indie project made with care. If you find it useful, consider becoming a Supporter to help us keep the servers running and add more platforms.
