Destiny 2 servers will be taken down due to a mid-week patch yet again, as Bungie prepares to implement Hotfix 7.0.0.6. Players will be removed from activities and in-game servers on March 23, following a message from Bungie regarding the maintenance. However, it seems that the server downtime will be held for an extended period.
Based on server time, Guardians can expect to get kicked out of activities at around 7:45 am PDT on March 23, approximately two hours before the reset time. Bungie also announced that the servers won't return until 12 pm PDT.
Hence, similar to the previous week, the servers will stay down for four hours and fifteen minutes, allowing Bungie to fix any recurring issues or balance the in-game sandbox.
The scheduled server downtime will be precisely two hours longer than the usual reset. Bungie also held a four-hour maintenance with the exact duration of downtime on March 16, where players got a lot of fixes involving invisible bugs, commendation requirements, and more.
The following is a list of downtime schedules for all major regions:
Players should note that Bungie will start the maintenance while the servers stay active from 7 am PDT. This is 45 minutes before the servers are scheduled to go offline. Hence, error codes such as CAT, Calabrese, and Cabbage might appear on everyone's screen during sessions before the downtime.
Additionally, all websites and third-party software tied to the API, including Destiny Tracker, Light.gg, Bray.tech, DIM (Destiny Item Manager), D2Gunsmith, and Bungie's official website will stay down. Players may encounter a queueing process once the servers return online.
Once the official servers return, Bungie will continue with background maintenance for an additional hour.
