We’re aware that a large number of players in mainland China are currently unable to connect or are experiencing severe connection issues. This appears to be caused by network or firewall restrictions within China, not by any recent changes on our side.
To help affected players, we’ve set up a temporary mirror site that should work better from within China:
https://www.milkywayidlecn.com
You can:
Update the Steam version of the game to automatically connect to this mirror site, or
Visit the site directly in your browser to play.
We’re continuing to monitor the situation and will look for a more stable long-term solution. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
