Twitch went down Saturday for thousands of users throughout the US. The website, the app, and server connections were all affected. Complaints piled up as the platform stopped loading for a significant number of people.
The outage fell on the same day Rockstar dropped a longer trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, an event that also took Netflix offline for some users. The simultaneous disruptions drew attention to whether the spike in traffic played a role.
Twitch confirmed it was looking into the cause. No timeline for a fix was given. Users were left waiting with little information about when the platform would come back.
