Call of Duty revealed as the least reliable video game with over 18 average outages per month

Reading Time: < 1 minute

For a lot of gamers, a poor connection or unreliable services can be one of the biggest deal-breakers. But which games, franchises and services are disrupted the most?

Mazuma Mobile has analysed Downdetector’s archive of confirmed outages of online gaming services to illustrate which services and games are the least reliable.

The top 10 most disrupted video games are:

Rank	Game / Franchise	Total Outages	Average Outages per Month
1	Call of Duty	203	18.45
2	League of Legends	90	8.18
3	Fifa	83	7.55
4	GTA V	82	7.45
5	Counter Strike	80	7.27
6	Rainbow Six Siege	78	7.09
7	Fortnite	78	7.09
8	Roblox	75	6.82
9	Destiny	56	5.09
10	Escape from Tarkov	54	4.91

Of the games that reported the most frequent problems, the Call of Duty franchise finishes significantly further ahead than the next closest, League of Legends.

Both franchises are well-known for their intense gameplay and rage-inducing moments with other players and so are very dependent on a reliable connection to the servers.

The top 5 most disrupted gaming services are:

Rank	Game Service	Total Outages	Average Outages per Month
1	Steam	158	14.36
2	Discord	120	10.91
3	Xbox Live	114	10.36
4	PlayStation Network	102	9.27
5	EA	100	9.09

Perhaps surprising to some, the services suffering from the most outages are the ones gamers rely on the most commonly, including Steam, Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, with the Xbox Live coming out as more likely to experience outages than its rival PlayStation.
