Error Code 2003 is one of several possible Error Codes players can encounter when playing Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. Error Code 2003 will disconnect players, preventing them from enjoying the game. Luckily most Error Codes that appear in Warhammer 40k Darktide, including 2003, are entirely fixable by trying a few solutions.
Possible Solutions to Error Code 2003 in Warhammer 40k Darktide
To fix Error Code 2003 in Darktide, your best option is to start small and work your way up to more advanced fixes. First, none of these fixes are guaranteed to work, and you are most likely disconnecting from server issues. If the servers are not experiencing similar server issues similar to issues during the Pre-Order Beta, we recommend trying to restart your game first. Following a fresh restart, the next fix you need to try is to restart your PC or console.
If restarting your game or system doesn’t work, try unplugging the wires in the back of your router and leaving it off for around 30 seconds. Doing so will restart your router, which can sometimes be enough to fix Error code 2003. Another reported fix by several users for solving Error 2003 is to try running the game with a VPN like Surfshark active.
Beyond VPNs, another good option for potentially solving Error 2003 is ensuring all drivers are updated, including your graphics driver. The last option for fixing Error 2003 is reinstalling the game, which we recommend saving for when all other fixes fail to work in Warhammer 40k Darktide.
