Bandai Namco and FromSoftware are bringing the Elden Ring servers down for a spell today. This maintenance period is only expected to last about an hour, and the time will be used to help improve multiplayer.
The Elden Ring server maintenance will take place on March 1 in JST and CET, which puts it in this evening’s window for North America.
Servers for #ELDENRING will undergo maintenance in the next few days to help improve some multiplayer functions.
Times and maintenance length for each platform will be listed in the following thread.
Thank you in advance for your kind understanding.
