[Updated] Street Fighter 6 server down or not working ('A communication error has occurred' or 'Error 50301')

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on July 5, 2023) follows:

Street Fighter 6 is a brilliant fighting game that offers a lot of content and variety for both newcomers and veterans.

It features a diverse roster of 18 characters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, and a new modern control scheme that simplifies the inputs for special moves.

The game also introduces a unique World Tour mode, where you can create your own custom fighter and explore Metro City, completing quests and fighting other characters.

According to multiple players, Street Fighter 6 server is down or not working since they are unable to go online (1,2,3,4,5,6,7).

For fans of the Street Fighter series, the online multiplayer aspect of the game is an essential component that adds depth, competitiveness, and excitement to the experience.

Unfortunately, the recent server problems have hindered players from fully enjoying the game, leading to frustration and disappointment.

Players eagerly logging in to engage in thrilling online battles are instead met with a recurring ‘A communication error has occurred’. While others get ‘currently under mainteneance’ prompt.

The error codes 20301-30001 and 50301 have become all too familiar, serving as barriers preventing players from accessing the game and participating in the competitive online matches they were looking forward to.

Great game. @StreetFighter it’s barely been a month and the game is already broken #StreetFighter6. And no it ain’t my connection either it’s the game

I just got kicked out of a ranked match, which I initially thought was a RQ from my opponent but the game restarted and gave me message saying the game is under maintenance. I thought the maintenance was yesterday for the US? I don’t remember it being on the 5th.

Some individuals have suggested that the aforementioned issues began to surface subsequent to the most recent server maintenance conducted on July 3.

However, without official information from Capcom, this remains speculative, and players are left to wonder about the true cause of the server problems.

That said, we’ll keep tabs on further developments on this issue and update the article as and when something noteworthy comes up.

06:04 pm (IST): This issue has now been resolved.
