Add to Watchlist

POE 2 - Switch Servers in Login Screen

How Long Do Login Queues Take?

Will Usually Take 5 to 10 Minutes to Join

With how fast the queue numbers go down, it might take 5 to 10 minutes for players who are in queue to enter the game. Be patient and try to refrain from actively restarting the game to avoid the "Account Does Not Have Access to Early Access" in the attempt to quicken queue times!

Queueing Already Started

Servers are currently live and so is the queue to get in! Many players are already queueing to enter the game, with the queue numbers reaching up to 30,000. The queue numbers do go down relatively fast!

Letting In Players In Batches

In order to not overload the servers, they're letting in players in batches. If you've joined the queue, patiently wait for the numbers to go down to enter the game!

Depends on Number of Users Joining

The login queue time can vary depending on when you launch a game as there can be more or fewer players trying to enter the game at a certain time. For issues on the game's servers, you can check our Server Status page to see if there are any issues from the game's end.
