When does Genshin Impact maintenance start and end? Version 3.5 schedule

sportskeeda.com:

The Genshin Impact version 3.5 update is expected to take place on March 1, 2023 at 11:00 AM (UTC+8), and will bring about many changes in the game. Before the new patch is released, HoYoverse will conduct short maintenance across all servers simultaneously to implement all the new changes and features.

While players await the upcoming banners, they might also wonder about the exact timings of the maintenance period and when it will end. This article will provide the expected schedule and other relevant information for all the regions.

While it is yet to be announced, the Genshin Impact 3.5 update will likely be released on February 28 or March 1, depending on the time zones. Before every new version update, HoYoverse performs a five-hour-long maintenance across all the servers at the same time, but the exact timing will vary for each player based on their region.

While the game servers are down, players will not be able to open Genshin Impact, so it is recommended that they complete all unfinished quests beforehand.

Assuming the maintenance concludes as per schedule, the exact start and end timings for all the time zones are as follows:

Once the maintenance ends, all Genshin Impact players will receive 300 Primogems as compensation from the developers along with an additional 300 for in-game bug fixes. Additionally, if the maintenance goes past the scheduled timing, each player will receive 100 Primogems for every extra hour taken.

The rewards can be claimed through the email feature. While it may not be much for most P2W players, this is one of the rare opportunities for F2P players to get a good amount of free Primogems at once.
