Steam went down on Tuesday, but appears to be coming back to life. Steamstat.us indicated earlier that the Steam Store, Steam Community and Web API were all down. But it’s been all systems go for a few minutes now.
Engadget staffers’ experience matches that. Earlier, when trying to access the Steam Store on Steam Deck and in the mobile app, only the UI loaded as an empty wrapper. Now everything appears to be loading normally.
Steamstat.us shows that it has had 1,534,000 page views in the past hour. (That typically means lots of annoyed gamers are trying to find out why they’re having problems.) PC Gamer reports that APIs for Valve’s first-party games (including Counter-Strike 2 and Deadlock) were also offline earlier.
We’ll continue to monitor Steam’s status and update this story.

Update, October 7, 2025, 1:14PM ET: This story has been updated to reflect additional problems.
