Warhammer 40K Darktide has been undergoing a revival of late, as the Xbox Game Pass title has seen an exponential rise in player base with its recent updates.
However, error code 5002 has been preventing players from diving into the game. Don’t worry! We’re here to resolve this issue for you.
Warhammer 40K Darktide – How To Fix Error Code 5002
Darktide is a cooperative mission-based game set in the Warhammer universe where you and up to three friends can tackle missions together.
It’s similar to Destiny in concept, as there are four classes within the game at the time being: Ogryn, Psyker, Veteran and Zealot, and they all differ in their playstyles.
As noted above, the game recently underwent a significant update that brought with it reworked classes and major overhauls to the overall gameplay. This update was viewed as a significant win for Warhammer fans, as seen in its recent explosion in popularity.
However, one pesky bug has not been resolved: Error Code 5002. Those nasty words and letters have been tormenting players since the game was released in 2022.
To resolve this error code, it’s good to know beforehand that this could be related to how the servers are performing within Darktide. If they’re down for maintenance, then players will have to wait until they go live, thus resolving the error.
However, this could also be related to your internet connection, and if you’re able to connect to the Darktide servers, and if this is the case, follow the outlined steps.
- Restart Warhammer 40K Darktide
- Check your connection
- Reset your router if possible, along with disconnecting and reconnecting to your internet.
These solutions should hopefully resolve it. If it doesn’t, remember, it’s likely a problem on the server end and not on yours.
If everything fails, the last resort is to take it online and message customer support.
