They include Boston, New York, Denver, Los Angeles, Tampa, and Atlanta, among others. The latest map below is as of Oct. 8 at 2:15 p.m. ET.
Gamers can check updates for the status of the game server in specific areas at the Down Detector website. Based on the map, though, the server issue has persisted in parts of the country for over 24 hours.
