Is Dispatch down right now?
Dispatch down, for this single-player game, means the game will not launch, crashes with a fatal error, or freezes mid-shift. Reports on this page climb when a bad update lands and many copies break together. The live graph shows those climbs as they happen.
A Dispatch outage pattern looks like one faulty patch hitting every platform in the same stretch. The same launch error then appears for thousands of players at once. Outside those waves, a broken copy usually traces back to one machine or one save slot.
Is Dispatch down for me or everyone?
Try a second save slot or a fresh profile on the same machine. If the other slot plays fine, your main slot holds the fault. If every slot fails at the same screen, the problem sits in the install or the current build.
What causes the fatal error at launch?
The fatal error message usually means the engine hit a file or driver it cannot use. Damaged files from a stopped download are a common trigger. Old graphics drivers and overlay tools push the same crash on some PCs.
Security software causes a quieter version of the same failure. Some antivirus tools block files the game needs during its hacking levels. A game folder left half-updated after a closed launcher breaks in a similar way. DMM Games
How can a shift freeze with heroes stuck waiting?
A softlock leaves heroes standing in a waiting state while the shift clock stops. Pausing at the exact moment a task completes is one known trigger. Restarting the shift clears it, and the autosave usually keeps your place.
Can playing offline break the game?
The game plays offline, but some builds crash while quitting without a connection. Save your progress and close the game from the menu instead of forcing it shut. Reconnect before you exit if the crash keeps returning.
Does verifying files repair a broken save slot?
File checks repair the game itself, not the data inside a save slot. A slot that fails to load after a clean file check is likely damaged. Start a spare slot early so one bad file never ends a run.
Common Dispatch Problems and Fixes
Try these steps in order and test the game after each one. Most Dispatch launch faults end at the file check, the driver, or one security setting.
Run the file check
Open Dispatch in your Steam library and verify the installed files. The scan replaces damaged or missing pieces without touching your saves. Launch the game again once the check reports clean.
Update the graphics driver
Install the current driver for your graphics card, then restart the PC. The fatal error at launch often comes from a driver the engine cannot work with. Test the same save slot after the restart.
Whitelist the game folder
Add the game folder and its launcher to your antivirus allow list. Security tools have blocked game files mid-load and during hacking levels. Keep protection on for the rest of the system.
Turn off overlay tools
Close screen recorders, chat overlays, and frame counters before you launch. These tools hook into the game and clash with its engine on some PCs. Test one full shift with them off.
Start a spare save slot
Begin a second slot while your main game still works. If the main slot later fails to load, you still have a working game to continue. Swap slots from the main menu to test both.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Dispatch down at the moment?
Dispatch is running for most players today, and no wide launch failure shows on the graph. A copy that breaks at startup is usually a local file or driver fault.
Why does Dispatch crash with a fatal error?
That crash means the engine failed on a file, a driver, or a blocked process. Verify the files, update the driver, and whitelist the folder before you try deeper steps.
How do I unstick a frozen shift?
Restart the shift from the pause menu or reload the last autosave. Heroes stuck in a waiting state clear once the shift restarts. Your progress loss is usually a few minutes at most.
What if my save slot will not load?
Test a second slot to see if the fault follows the slot or the game. A slot that fails alone is damaged data. The other slot and your settings stay untouched.
Can I play Dispatch without an internet connection?
Yes, the full game runs offline once it is installed. Some builds crash while quitting offline, so reconnect before you close the game if that fault hits you.
Does the Dispatch status improve after patches?
It does. The Dispatch status usually settles a short while after a patch repairs the known faults. Reports fall as players update and the crash fixes reach every platform.
