How to fix Destiny 2 error code bat

If you're like me, you've probably sat down to check out a brand new Destiny 2 update but faced yet another error code. This time, it's the Destiny 2 bat error code. This error occurs due to a general networking issue, as described by Bungie. However, this can lead you to believe that the mistake is your end, which almost never happens.

Destiny 2 is a fully online game, and the internet can be unreliable at times, given Destiny 2's shaky history with stability. Before trying to solve the battery error, I highly recommend checking the Destiny 2 server status page as there may be planned or unplanned downtime. If this is the case, then you have no choice but to wait it out. If it isn't and your computer or internet is having problems, you should:

  • start over
    • Sometimes, turning it off and back on really does the job. I recommend you restart both, yours a computer and yours internet.
  • Check for updates
    • Destiny 2 may have a hotfix to fix your problems for you. You should also check for any computer updates through both Windows Update and your computer manufacturer's website if your network adapter is giving you problems.

  • Check your firewall
    • Although this is rare, an update to your computer may have prevented your game from connecting to the internet. So, open the Start menu and type Allow app through the Windows Firewall, where you can scroll down to see if Destiny 2 is controlled in any way.
  • Internet
    • If you are connected to a VPN, you may want to disconnect and try again. If not, try another internet connection like your mobile hotspot to run the game.

If none of these steps did it for you, and you are still facing issues after confirming that the Destiny 2 servers are not down, then I suggest you contact Bungie's supportbecause they may be able to help you with some issues on their end that may be affecting you.
