As expected, the maintenance has gone live onMay 2, ahead of the upcoming update. The maintenance began on2am ET/1am CT/11pm PT(May 1), which automatically took down all the servers. This is pretty routine for all major updates related to major seasonal content.
As of writing, there isn’t any concrete information about when the servers will be back. Based on previous incidents, the maintenance should last between four to six hours. If that’s the case, the servers should be available at6am ET/4am CT/3am PT(shorter version) or8am ET/6am CT/5am PT(longer one). We have yet to get confirmation from Epic on when the latest maintenance will end.
There’s always a chance that the maintenance may be extended beyond the stated time. In that case, the updated ending period will be added to this article.
