Wildlight Entertainment has maintained a shroud of secrecy around its highly anticipated PvP raid shooter, Highguard, leading up to its launch. As is often the case with online-only games, the potential for day-one server issues looms large, a familiar rite of passage for many gamers. While we remain hopeful that Wildlight Entertainment will navigate this launch without significant hiccups, it’s prudent to prepare for any unexpected error codes that may arise when the multiplayer experience goes live later today. To ensure a seamless entry into the game, we suggest reviewing our Secure Boot guide to guarantee your PC is primed for action—after all, you wouldn’t want anything to hinder your quest for the legendary Shieldbreaker.
Highguard server status
The initial reports indicate that the Highguard servers are experiencing instability at launch. Although the developers have yet to issue any statements regarding server issues, a number of players are finding themselves unable to progress beyond the main menu. After completing the tutorial, some users have encountered a persistent login queue that prevents further access to the game. It’s worth noting that this issue may not be widespread, and some players might have a smoother experience.
While the official social media channels for Highguard have remained silent on this matter, we recommend monitoring the PlayHighguard X account for any updates regarding server status. We anticipate that the game will provide in-game notifications about server conditions, but in the event of a significant disruption, the official account will be the primary source for the latest information.
For now, this is the extent of our knowledge regarding the Highguard server situation. Stay tuned to this page as the FPS game unfolds, and keep an eye out for updates on gameplay performance. Additionally, we have a feature on Highguard achievements that offers a glimpse into what players can expect from this free-to-play title.
